For over 30 years now, GALIS has left its mark on the world of space design and event agencies: trade shows, events, meeting and commercial venues.
Today recognised as the first company able to claim complete expertise across the three great families of Design tied to event-based encounters and commercial spaces: trade shows, events and retail.
02 — History
From 1973 to today.
The adventure began in 1994, when Nathalie Laborde and Fabrice Laborde, both driven by the same entrepreneurial passion, decided to acquire a small design company specialising in exhibition stands and trade-show events, itself founded in 1973.
Fabrice Laborde took on the management role while Nathalie Laborde took the creative one, each also handling the sales side of the young company. They quickly built a fine client portfolio by winning many competitions, not without a certain fighting spirit.
03 — Positioning
Strategy, design, business.
A fine reputation rooted in the company's DNA, which has grown by adopting an innovative professional philosophy combining strategic thinking, a CSR approach, design and client business — with the aim of producing, for each project, a design response perfectly aligned with the client's commercial stakes and brand image.
To this they added project management that fosters the cross-disciplinary nature of design professions on one hand, and a strong advisory approach for each project on the other. A creative process combining the constant search for new ideas, the design of impactful concepts and full mastery of the technical aspects of every study.
The GALIS agency offers consulting and creative expertise across the great families of Design tied to encounters, whether in event venues, commercial sites, webinar studios or within companies.
We design environments and content for trade shows & stands, events, retail, showrooms, pop-up spaces and webinars.
The GALIS group's innovative positioning combines strategic thinking, design, a CSR approach and client business. Its purpose is to produce, for each project, a complete response perfectly aligned with its clients' commercial, image, brand-identity and societal stakes.
