STRONG PR, Marketing and Events is proud to celebrate a significant achievement as our Head of Graphic Design, Aimée Plank, was honoured with the Tech Adopter of the Year award at the prestigious 2025 Women in MICE Awards.
This award recognises women in the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Events (MICE) industry who are at the forefront of innovation and technology.
Aimée has consistently demonstrated a forward-thinking approach to design and marketing, integrating technology with creativity to deliver powerful brand experiences for clients across the corporate and lifestyle sectors.
“From the start, Aimée has brought a rare mix of creative flair and digital savvy to the table,” said Mika Stefano, co-founder of STRONG PR, Marketing and Events. “She’s not only a designer – she’s a strategist, a storyteller, and an innovator. This award is a true reflection of her impact.”
When she’s not leading STRONG’s design direction, Aimée swaps the keyboard for skates – as the captain of the South African Roller Derby team, bringing the same fierce energy and determination to the rink as she does to the studio.
STRONG PR, Marketing and Events is a proudly South African full-service creative agency, known for curating bold, engaging campaigns, high-level corporate events, and experiential activations. This recognition marks a proud moment for the team, as we continue to grow and lead within the industry.
“I’m honoured to be recognised, but even more grateful to work in a team that values pushing boundaries and trying new things. I’m excited for what’s next.” said Aimée Plank.
The Women in MICE Awards celebrate excellence, leadership, and empowerment within the events and marketing industry. This year’s ceremony brought together some of the most inspiring professionals in the field, and STRONG is honoured to be among them.
