As DELIVER celebrates its 10th anniversary, Deputy CEO Aurore Colella took a moment to reflect on what the milestone means — not just for the organisation, but for the entire community it serves.

“You don’t turn 10 every day,” Colella said. “There’s excitement, there’s celebration — but most of all, there’s gratitude. It’s all thanks to the team that this is coming together.”

FROM MATCHMAKING TO COMMUNITY BUILDING

Known for its precise B2B matchmaking, DELIVER is now entering a new chapter — one that places community building at its heart.

“Yes, matchmaking is our DNA,” Colella said. “But now it’s about creating deeper connections. We’re introducing C-suite dinners, retail breakfasts — moments of real interaction that move the industry forward.”

The goal? Turn transactional meetings into meaningful networks that fuel innovation and collaboration.

A PLATFORM FOR POSITIVE IMPACT

This year’s edition also marks the launch of DELIVER’s sustainability initiative, a major milestone in the event’s evolution.

“We take huge pride in this new moment,” Colella explained. “It’s not just about talking sustainability — it’s about influencing positive change and redistributing profit toward social and sustainable causes.”

The initiative is a statement of intent — that business can be a force for good, and DELIVER is ready to lead by example.

REFLECTING ON THE JOURNEY

With ten years of connections, conversations, and innovation behind them, Colella is proud of what DELIVER has become.

“We’ve always believed in creating value by bringing the right people together,” she said. “Now we’re doubling down on that purpose — with deeper conversations and more impact than ever before.”

AND THEN, THERE’S THE PARTY

Naturally, no DELIVER anniversary would be complete without a celebration. And Colella made one thing clear:

“Yes, you’ll see me on the dance floor,” she laughed. “I’m going to drag every attendee out there with me!”

With legendary DJ Bob Sinclar headlining the night, DELIVER 2025 promises to close with the same energy that has defined its decade of success: bold, joyful, and built on meaningful connection.
