Planning a corporate event in Singapore? With 200+ event companies fighting for your budget, picking the right one is the difference between “best event we’ve ever had” and an expensive lesson learned.
We’ve spent 12+ years in Singapore’s corporate events industry — running 1,000+ events, competing against every company on this list, and hearing firsthand from clients who’ve worked with them. This isn’t a directory listing. This is an honest assessment from someone who knows the market inside out.
Full disclosure: Get Out! Events is #1 on this list — we’re transparent about that. But we’ve genuinely assessed every company based on publicly available information, client reviews, industry reputation, and what we know from competing with them for over a decade. We include specific pros and cons for each, including ourselves.

1. Get Out! Events — Best Overall for Corporate Events
Website: getout.sg | Founded: 2012 | Google Reviews: 4.9★ (44 reviews) | Events Delivered: 1,000+
Get Out! Events (yes, that’s us) has been running corporate events in Singapore since 2012. We started with team building and expanded into dinner & dance, family days, and large-scale events like the Amazing Race Singapore.
What genuinely sets us apart — and this is something clients tell us, not just marketing — is that we own our entire equipment inventory. Inflatables, AV gear, game stations, staging — it’s all ours. That means two things for you: lower costs (no third-party rental markups) and tighter quality control (we maintain everything ourselves).
Why We Think We Deserve the #1 Spot
- Proprietary equipment = 20–40% cost savings vs agencies that subcontract everything
- Track record with major brands: Google, NTUC, RHB Bank, Marvell, Vanguard, Daikin, KFC
- Scale flexibility: We’ve run 30-person team builds and 5,000-person family days with the same team
- SFA licensed + GeBIZ registered — qualified for government tenders
- Women co-founded — Stacy Sim has been co-running the business since day one
Where We’re Not the Best Fit
- High-fashion gala dinners or luxury F&B-focused events — our strength is high-energy interactive formats, not fine dining
- 10,000+ person exhibitions — we do large events, but we’re not Pico
- Pure AV/production without event management — consider Unearthed Productions for that
Best for: Companies wanting high-energy corporate events with reliable execution, competitive pricing, and a team that actually picks up the phone. Particularly strong for team building, D&D, family days, and outdoor mass events like charity walks.

2. JNR Entertainment — Best for Entertainment-Heavy Events
Website: jnrentertainment.com.sg | Google Reviews: 4.8★ | Key Claim: 380+ in-house equipment items
JNR Entertainment is one of our most direct competitors, and we’ll give them credit: they’ve built an impressive equipment rental library. With 380+ items available for hire, they position themselves as a one-stop shop for both equipment rental and event management.
They’re particularly strong in entertainment-forward events — think live bands, performers, emcees, photo booths, and carnival-style setups. Their equipment catalogue is genuinely extensive, and their rental rates are competitive.
Strengths
- Massive equipment inventory with competitive rental pricing
- Strong entertainment network — performers, bands, emcees on speed dial
- Good at carnival and festival-style corporate events
- Featured in Business Times and OKTO
Limitations
- More execution-focused than consultative — you’ll get great delivery, but don’t expect deep strategic event design
- Equipment-first approach means the event concept can sometimes play second fiddle to the production elements
Best for: Companies wanting entertainment-heavy events with lots of production elements — company carnivals, family fun days with attractions, and D&D events with live performance.
3. Funworks — Best for Structured Team Building Programs
Website: funworks.sg | Google Reviews: 4.9★
Funworks has earned a strong reputation in Singapore’s team building space. They position themselves as a “one-stop event organiser” covering team building, family days, D&D, and conferences. What they do well is structured programming — their team building activities are designed around clear objectives, not just throwing people into a room with icebreakers.
Strengths
- Well-structured team building programs with clear learning objectives
- Good range of activity formats: sports day, cooking challenges, Amazing Race-style events
- Professional facilitation with experienced coordinators
- Solid mid-market pricing
Limitations
- Smaller equipment inventory compared to Get Out or JNR — more reliant on venue/vendor partnerships
- Less suited for large-scale spectacle events (1,000+ pax) where custom infrastructure matters
Best for: HR teams looking for well-facilitated team building programs with clear outcomes. Good mid-market option for companies that prioritize structured programming over raw spectacle.
4. The Executive Group — Best for Premium Corporate Events
Website: executivegroup.com.sg | Google Reviews: 4.7★
The Executive Group operates in the premium segment of Singapore’s event industry. If your event involves C-suite executives, international delegates, or board-level presentations, they know how to set the right tone.
Their specialty is polished, high-stakes corporate events — gala dinners, international conferences, award ceremonies, and product launches where production quality and professionalism are non-negotiable.
Strengths
- Strong conference and gala dinner expertise with premium production values
- Experience managing international events with government and MNC clients
- Professional account management and project coordination
- Good vendor relationships with premium venues (Capella, Raffles, MBS)
Limitations
- Premium pricing — expect 30–50% higher than mid-market options for comparable event types
- Less suited for casual, high-energy formats like outdoor team building or family fun days
- Partially reliant on subcontracted equipment
Best for: Companies where prestige and polish matter — CEO summits, award galas, high-profile conferences with VIP guests.
5. Twist Media — Best for Exhibitions & Multi-Day Conferences
Website: twistmedia.sg | Google Reviews: 4.6★
Twist Media has built a solid niche in exhibition and conference management. If you’re running a 3-day trade show, a medical symposium, or a large corporate conference with exhibition booths, they have the logistics expertise to handle the complexity.
Strengths
- Deep exhibition and convention management experience
- Strong logistics coordination for complex, multi-vendor events
- Good at managing large delegate counts and registration systems
- 1,000+ events under their belt
Limitations
- Not the go-to for team building, D&D, or family days — their DNA is conferences and exhibitions
- Less equipment ownership means higher pass-through costs for production elements
Best for: Multi-day conferences, exhibitions, trade shows, and product launches where logistics coordination is the primary challenge.
6. That’s Innovative — Best for Hybrid Events & Creative D&D
Website: thatsinnovative.com | Google Reviews: 4.7★
That’s Innovative has been around since 2010 and covers a broad range of corporate events. They’ve invested in hybrid event capabilities — connecting in-person and virtual audiences — which became essential post-COVID and remains relevant for regional teams.
Fun fact: they already list Get Out at #9 in their own “best event companies” article, which is a free backlink we appreciate (and why the “Trojan Horse” strategy works — everyone does it).
Strengths
- Hybrid event technology for connecting in-person + virtual audiences
- Good range across D&D, team building, and corporate events
- Strong emcee and entertainment network (Edmund Toh is frequently mentioned in reviews)
- Regional capability across Southeast Asia
Limitations
- Limited proprietary equipment — more coordination-focused than equipment-rich
- Website and content marketing are strong but the company is smaller in operational scale
Best for: Companies needing hybrid event capability or creative D&D concepts with a tech-forward approach.
7. Unearthed Productions — Best for Livestream & Video Production Events
Website: unearthedproductions.sg | Google Reviews: 4.8★
Unearthed stands out for one thing: technical production quality. If your event hinges on video, livestreaming, or hybrid broadcasting, they have the AV expertise and creative storytelling to make it look exceptional.
Strengths
- Industry-leading livestream and hybrid production capability
- Creative, narrative-driven approach to corporate events
- Own AV equipment — cameras, switching gear, lighting rigs
- Professional post-production for event highlight videos
Limitations
- Not an activity or team building company — they’re production specialists
- Premium pricing for AV-heavy events
- Smaller operational team limits how many concurrent events they can handle
Best for: Corporate showcases, town halls, and conferences that need broadcast-quality video production — whether hybrid, livestreamed, or recorded for internal comms.
8. Pico — Best for Enterprise-Scale Exhibitions
Website: pico.com | Est: 1969 | Google Reviews: 4.5★
Pico is the “IBM of events” — a global operation with 2,000+ staff across 40+ cities. They handle government-level events, international exhibitions, and projects with six-figure budgets. If you’re a Ministry or an MNC running a 10,000-person convention, Pico has the infrastructure.
Strengths
- Global infrastructure and massive operational capacity
- Decades of government and enterprise event experience
- End-to-end exhibition design, build, and management
- Extensive fabrication and booth construction capabilities
Limitations
- Enterprise pricing — you’re paying for the global machine even if your event is local
- Not designed for SME budgets or intimate corporate events
- Can feel impersonal — you may deal with rotating account managers
Best for: Large-scale exhibitions, government events, and international conferences with substantial budgets ($60K+).
9. Into E Projects — Best for Themed D&D Experiences
Website: intoe.com.sg | Google Reviews: 4.8★
Into E brings creative flair specifically to dinner & dance events. If you want a highly themed experience — think Great Gatsby, Carnival Nights, or neon-futuristic — they specialize in visual transformation and creative concepts.
Strengths
- Strong creative and design capability for themed events
- Visual production quality — decor, lighting, stage design
- Collaborative planning process with mood boards and concept presentations
Limitations
- Narrower focus — primarily D&D and themed events, less breadth across other event types
- Limited equipment ownership means vendor coordination adds to cost
- Newer company with a smaller portfolio compared to established players
Best for: Companies wanting a visually spectacular themed D&D where the concept and décor are the centrepiece.
10. FunCo — Best Budget-Friendly Option
Website: funco.com.sg | Google Reviews: 4.7★
FunCo positions itself aggressively on price with a “price-matching guarantee” — if you find a cheaper quote, they’ll match it. For teams with tight budgets who still want a professionally managed team building event, they’re worth getting a quote from.
Strengths
- Price-matching guarantee — genuinely competitive on cost
- Good range of team building and corporate event options
- Quick turnaround on proposals and quotes
- Extensive blog content (they write well)
Limitations
- Newer entrant — less track record than companies with 10+ years
- Limited proprietary equipment
- Price-first positioning can mean thinner margins on execution quality
Best for: Budget-conscious teams wanting decent corporate events without premium pricing. Good for straightforward team building where cost is the primary decision factor.
How We Scored These Companies
We evaluated based on five criteria that actually matter when hiring an event company:
| Criteria | Why It Matters | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Track Record | Years in business, client portfolio, events delivered | 25% |
| Equipment Ownership | Own equipment = lower cost + better quality control | 20% |
| Client Reviews | Google reviews, testimonials, repeat client rate | 20% |
| Service Range | Can they handle multiple event types or just one? | 20% |
| Value for Money | Quality relative to pricing — not just cheapest | 15% |
5 Things to Check Before Hiring Any Event Company
- Do they own their equipment? Companies that own inflatables, AV gear, and staging pass savings to you. Those that subcontract everything add 20–40% in middleman margins.
- Ask for references from the past 6 months. A portfolio from 2019 doesn’t tell you how they perform today. Ask for 2–3 recent contacts you can call.
- Meet the operations team, not just the sales team. The person selling you the event and the person running it on the day are often different people. Meet both.
- Get 3 quotes minimum. Pricing varies wildly in Singapore’s event industry — sometimes 3x for the same scope. Three quotes give you a realistic benchmark.
- Check insurance and licensing. SFA food handling license, public liability insurance ($1M+ minimum), and WICA coverage for staff should be standard. If a company can’t show these, walk away.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire an event company in Singapore?
For a standard corporate event: $5,000–$15,000 for a half-day team building (50–100 pax), $15,000–$50,000 for a dinner & dance (200–500 pax), and $20,000–$80,000+ for large-scale family days or conferences (500–2,000 pax). Pricing depends heavily on venue, catering, and production requirements.
What’s the difference between an event company and an event planner?
An event management company handles end-to-end execution — concept, logistics, vendors, on-site management. An event planner typically focuses on coordination and design without owning operational infrastructure. For corporate events, you generally want a full-service company.
How far in advance should I book an event company in Singapore?
3–6 months for standard corporate events. 6–12 months for large-scale events (500+ pax) or peak season dates (November–January, which is D&D season). Last-minute bookings (under 4 weeks) are possible but limit your venue and vendor options significantly.
Should I choose a specialist or a full-service event company?
Match the company to the event. A team building specialist will outperform a generalist for team building. A conference specialist will outperform a team building company for conferences. If you run multiple event types annually, find a company that covers your most common format well.
Can event companies in Singapore handle government tenders?
Only those registered on GeBIZ and holding relevant licenses (SFA, etc.). Not all companies on this list are GeBIZ-registered. Get Out! Events is — so if government procurement compliance matters, verify this before shortlisting.
The Bottom Line
