Les Ortigues
Who are we ?
A multi-expertise player in venue design and event scenography Les Ortigues has been pursuing its development for more than 60 years in each of its fields of activity, covering all event services, whether technical, logistical or organisational consulting.
Our 20,000m² logistics platform includes storage warehouses and integrated manufacturing workshops. As the owner of all its equipment, Les Ortigues can thus ensure the quality and reliability of its offers.
Our structure enables us to intervene everywhere in France but also throughout the world (Vinexpo Hong Kong, Miami Boat Show, Prowein Düsseldorf, Gulfood Dubai…) in order to accompany our clients.
Finally, our numerous references both in the public sector (Bordeaux Métropole, Presidency of the Republic, Rhône-Alpes Region…) and in the private sector (APM, Nicolas Feuillatte, Europa Organisation…) testify to our constantly renewed reputation.

Preparation
The project manager supervises and coordinates the operation. In this way, he provides the operational link between the various trades required to ensure the success of the event. As the project manager, he is the key contact for the contracting authority.
Deployment
The project manager is responsible for coordinating all the human and administrative logistical resources required to supply the equipment on site. He also organises all technical services.
Assembly
During the installation, the project manager will inform you of the progress of the project via progress meetings. They debrief daily with the project manager to ensure that everything runs smoothly and to manage any unforeseen events.
During the event
We offer you a permanent presence in order to manage any of your possible consumabalesrequests but also a dedicated exhibitor service. We also manage maintenance such as the restocking of supplies.
The result
In the days following the end of your event, we will organise a global debriefing meeting with you in order to identify the strong points and areas for improvement.
The Co-nect Group
Following the takeover of the Class Affaires Expo agency by Les Ortigues on 3 October 2014, the Co-nect brand has been specially created to bring together these two SMEs. It will be completed by the takeover of MDI Expo at the end of 2015.
Co-nect’s aim is to interconnect the expertise of its various subsidiaries and promote synergies. It will offer its own consulting services or support in communication strategy.
“Co-nect was born in a proactive approach in the face of a hectic environment where the rules of the game are changing profoundly,” says Philippe Rondot, Co-nect’s CEO. At a time when the events sector is in perpetual renewal, Co-nect is part of a pure Built up strategy, it will help to foster networking and will have the mission to support its own projects”.
