On Saturday 4th November, énergie celebrated another year of success at its 14th annual évolution conference. Held at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry the scale of this year’s event continued to grow, bringing together 500 people throughout the day, including franchisees, clubs staff teams, the énergie Central team, suppliers and guests for a day of inspiration, motivation and celebration.

évolution 2017 held a theme of ‘Take the Stage’, in line with our club training programme designed to encourage staff to shine and offer members an unbeatable gym experience, giving énergie an opportunity to truly wow its guests from start to finish.

The conference was hosted by a number of fantastic speakers, who each delivered a message that was an excellent reminder of what the énergie brand represents. Alongside a handful of our very own énergie speakers, including énergie CEO Jan Spaticchia, we also welcomed special guests Gavin Oattes, Managing Director of Tree of Knowledge; Dave Wright, CEO of MYZONE; and Paul Brown, Mr Retention and Head of the énergie émpower Programme.

évolution is the uncontested highlight of the énergie calendar and provides a unique opportunity to bring together everything across the network. A highlight for many, our evening awards ceremony is a special event which gives the opportunity for franchisees to celebrate with their teams. At énergie we’re proud to recognise and reward our teams and individuals who make a difference, so we congratulate our deserving winners on their tremendous achievements.
