What Hurricane does

Hurricane s.r.o. is a Bratislava-headquartered (Pšeničná 10, 821 06 Bratislava) Slovak event production and audiovisual services company operating as a private limited company (s.r.o.). The company delivers end-to-end event production for corporate conferences, international congresses, television broadcasts, concerts, festivals, exhibitions, and corporate launches, combining equipment rental with creative production services under a unified 3D-design-to-execution workflow.

The business model is professional services plus equipment rental, with quote-based pricing tailored per event and revenue derived from full-service technical production, equipment hire, event management, content development, event branding, scenic design, and an online/hybrid event platform. The go-to-market is event-driven and direct, with named enterprise and institutional customers across broadcasting (TA3, RTVS, TV Barrandov), banking (WSBI, Eurofi), automotive (Mercedes-Benz), beverage (Coca-Cola HBC), energy (ERRA, SAPI), media (Rádio Expres), and government/nonprofit sectors (World Jewish Congress, AmCham Slovakia, Špeciálne olympiády Slovensko). Marketing relies on the corporate website with Slovak/English/German multilingual support, case studies, a blog, a glossary, downloadable catalogs, and active social channels (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube).
