ODP Champion’s Circle
Empowering industries for success.
Each year, ODP Business Solutions honors its top-performing salespeople by whisking them and their significant others to a beautiful destination and celebrating them as part of “Champion Circle.” For 2024, the event was held in the French Riviera. ODP engaged Gerard to create a series of pre-event communications to promote the celebration and onsite materials to welcome people to the event in style.

Event Theme
Once the French Riviera was selected as the destination for the 2024 Champions Circle event, Gerard developed several theme names for ODP’s consideration. The winning name would appear on all of the collateral associated with the event — from official letterhead to hotel door hangers. Ultimately, Vive Les Champions was selected.
Written in French, this name instantly connects to the event’s destination while also putting the idea of champions in the spotlight. This shaped the visual approach of the event theme.
Inspired by select colors and the fleur-de-lis, this Champions Circle theme lead with colors that nodded to nature in the region — within color fields, border treatments, embellishments, font usage and of course, the fleur-de-lis.
Copy was rendered in a style that captures the essence of old-world signage in European streets, while all elements worked together to create a look and feel that’s engrained with the richness and history of French culture.
