The Meetings, Events and Communications division of Grass Roots has been selected by the Engineering and Technology Board to deliver event production for 'The Big Bang' in March 2010, 2011 and 2012.
The Big Bang is an annual event designed to educate and inspire school children about the many possibilities a career in science and engineering can bring.
The events include an exhibition with interactive sessions, workshops and theatre shows.
The Big Bang is also host to UK-wide competitions including the National Science & Engineering Competition, Young Engineers, CREST and others.
Grass Roots will be instrumental in creating and delivering these aspects of the events, including award ceremonies, ensuring that they are fun, engaging and safe for all attending.
Earlier this year Grass Roots delivered the production for The Learning Grid, one of several regional three-day events staged in the lead up to The Big Bang.
Jeremy Buckle, Event Director, The Big Bang commented: "Grass Roots really brought engineering to life at The Learning Grid event this year and I am looking forward to continuing to work in partnership with them over the next three years. We have some really exciting ideas in progress and I know the team will make every element of the event come alive to inspire the children attending."
Over 6,500 people attended The Big Bang 2009, held in London. The 2010 event will be held in March in Manchester and promises to be even bigger with over 6,000 children already registered and an estimated 20,000 attendees.
Simon Allison, Director of Operations and Production, Grass Roots said: "We are delighted to have been chosen to deliver The Big Bang event for the next three years. The event communicates important messages that impact the future careers of many children and we are proud to be part of educating them in the most exciting manner possible."
