Summary of the contracting process

The Warwick District Council has completed a public procurement process for the organisation and running of a games festival, aimed at boosting the national profile of the Silicon Spa games cluster in Warwickshire. This tender, valued at £25,000, was conducted under an open procedure with the contract period spanning from April 1, 2018, to October 1, 2018. The tender concluded on December 19, 2017, and was awarded to Holland Alexander UK Ltd, a supplier based in Leicester. The event aims to not only enhance the visibility of the local games industry but also to promote Silicon Spa as an attractive location for individuals and businesses alike.

This opportunity is particularly well-suited for companies specialising in event management, exhibition organisation, and cultural event planning. Businesses that are knowledgeable in organising large-scale events, including those with experience in the games and technology sectors, would find a competitive edge. The focus on showcasing Silicon Spa's potential makes this festival a strategic platform for networking and exposure, allowing successful bidders to collaborate within the vibrant local industry and contribute to its growth.

Notice Title

WDC - Organisation and running of a games festival - AWARD

Notice Description

Provision of the organisation and running of a games festival. Warwick District Council's detailed requirements are defined in the Specification. BACKGROUND Silicon Spa, the games cluster in and around Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, is the third largest games cluster in the UK. It is estimated to employ at least 2,250 of the 9,000 people in the games industry. Despite the significance of the cluster, we lack a notable national profile for Silicon Spa. As such we have identified the need to hold a key event to promote and support the local games industry. The event has two objectives: 1. To increase the national profile of the Silicon Spa games cluster 2. To showcase Silicon Spa as a place to live, work, play and invest
