Today marks one year since we launched Trivandi Academy, dedicated to empowering major event professionals worldwide. What began as a vision to transform industry education has rapidly grown into a thriving global learning community.
Our Journey Begins
One year ago, we launched Trivandi Academy to address a core gap in the major events industry – a lack of relevant, structured training, shared knowledge, and clear career pathways for those delivering the world's biggest events.
We saw that our industry faced a real talent challenge: a shortage of trained professionals and new host countries that needed local expertise. We set out to drive the professionalisation of the major events industry by creating certified learning programmes and sustainable development pathways that build long-term capability, not just short-term staffing solutions.
A Year of Growth and Achievement
By sharing our real-world expertise, we're helping build skilled teams worldwide.
In just twelve months, Trivandi Academy has:
- Received accreditation as a Chartered Management Institute Learning Centre
- Successfully launched our flagship الفعاليات الكبرى 101 course and The Essentials Series
- Trained professionals in more than 20 countries
- Developed trusted partnerships with industry leaders including UK Sport, Ethara, Australia Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Transport Management Solutions (TMS)
- Successfully delivered a mentoring programme for 30 executive leaders in Saudi Arabia with the General Entertainment Authority and Takamol
- Begun two new projects to help clients achieve their goals in upskilling existing teams
Our Continuing Mission
Our mission remains clear - to professionalise the industry by focusing on long-term skills rather than a quick fix and to create clear, lasting career paths instead of just project work.
What drives us every day is:
- Building human capability to attract, plan and deliver major events internationally
- Training local teams to deliver impactful events at every career stage
- Sharing our knowledge, best practice and experience from 290+ projects
- Contributing back to the industry that made us
- Collaborating with industry partners to drive positive change
We believe investing in people creates more lasting value than any venue or facility. When we train local talent, it's not just staffing an event – it's creating capabilities that contribute to a nation's economy for decades. Knowledge transfer programmes seed entire industries with skilled professionals, leaving a lasting legacy beyond the event itself.
Looking Forward
We're just getting started! As we enter our second year, we're launching three specialist courses that address the industry's evolving needs.
Leading our next chapter is our Sustainability in Major Events programme, combining The Bulb's expertise with our academic team to deliver practical strategies for environmentally responsible events.
