CTI Fest 2026.

The hard part of a multi-termin festival isn’t any single day — it’s coherence across them. Each termin has its own partner, its own audience, and its own content brief. Without a strong brand architecture binding them, the attendee experience fragments and the festival stops feeling like a festival.

CTI wanted the opposite. A brand that showed up the same way at day one as it did at day thirty — scenography, tone, cue language, content feel, all on the same chord. That meant framing before execution: we locked the visual system, the stage grammar, and the content rules before a single day was built.

We scoped the festival vertically (each termin end-to-end) and horizontally (the shared spine across all of them). Stage grammar and booth language were shared. Content templates were shared. The delta per termin was content, audience, and partner mix — never the production bones.

That shape let us bring in Magna Production for the booth fabrication side without breaking the look of the festival — and let our content team work from a consistent aspect and pacing spec across all days.

B2B festivals live or die on whether attendees can navigate them. We engineered the spatial language so the main stage, the breakouts, and the partner showcases all spoke the same visual vocabulary — colour palette, type grammar, cue rhythm, signage logic. An attendee moving between zones should feel continuity, not a context switch.

The booth kit-of-parts was the biggest single lever. Instead of every partner building bespoke, Magna Production built a modular system every partner could skin — cheaper, faster, and dramatically better-looking across the whole floor than a free-for-all would have been.

Content capture was built into the scenography, not bolted on. Shot blocking, lighting plots, and camera positions were specified during stage design so the day-of capture happened without retrofitting — which is why the recap feels like part of the event, not a separate asset.

The reward for early framing work is that every termin benefits. By the fifth termin, the team is running at full speed, the brand feels unshakeable, and the partners trust that they’re showing up on the same stage — not competing with it.

CTI Fest 2026 was the largest single engagement by cumulative value in Magnativ’s first year — and the clearest proof of what three disciplines under one roof can deliver when the scope genuinely needs all three.

Partner feedback tracked the brand coherence the scope was designed for: the festival felt like a festival, not a stitched-together series of events. Which is, on a multi-termin program, the entire point.
