FiveCurrents set an Olympic record when we helped Beijing become the only city in history to host both the summer and winter Olympic Games. We set another Olympic record when we helped bring the Games to South America for the first time, as we crafted a series of cinematic films and produced the International Olympic Committee’s four-day Evaluation Commission visit to Rio and the final presentations abroad. We also produced the presentations and creative elements of Istanbul’s bid for the 2020 Olympic Games on the heels of our team’s successful Rio 2016 bid strategy.

From 2005 to 2016, US President Bill Clinton convened a conference to motivate governments, foundations, and the private sector to act upon the world’s most pressing challenges. FiveCurrents sculpted a summit with a simple requirement: participants needed to stand in front of their peers and make a commitment to action as a condition of their attendance, and fulfill their commitment in order to return. Over the years, 3,600 commitments were made impacting people in 180 countries.
