Cherished clients – 26.01.2005
The Prague Tribune threw a cocktail party for its advertisers in the new restaurant La Scene. A drawing meant that anyone could get lucky and win one of many gifts – including a free two-week rental of a Citroen C2, packages from Eurotel and Alpine Pro, memberships and massages in Hilton hotel’s health club Cybex, and a new Motorola V3 cell phone.

Jalta’s big heart – 09.02.2005
Everyone wear something red – that was the condition for entry to a party at Hotel Jalta, which took place just before Valentine’s day. The event introduced a new owner, a new team and especially the new face of the hotel. The interior reconstruction maintained the original look, but improved comfort standards by adding a number of modern features.

When in Rio… – 10.02.2005
In the style of Brazilian carnival, Euro RSCG celebrated the fact it was awarded the “Best agency of the year 2004” by Strategie magazine. Although only a few guests were brave to wear the costume of samba dancers (most opted for the all-white outfit), the show with musicians and dancers still managed to put everyone in the right mood.
