Tijdens de slotceremonie van The International Festival of Events and Live Communication (BEA World) werd The Oval Office bekroond tot Best World Event Agency. Verder gingen 7 BEA awards naar Belgische inzendingen en 1 naar Nederland.
The Oval Office kreeg de titel als beste eventbureau omdat het de hoogste score behaalde in de verschillende categoriëen waarin het genomineerd was. Het bureau behaalde met de live campagne SD Worx Intimate Concerts de Grand Prix, twee Gold Awards in de categorieën 'Corporate Celebration' en 'Musical Event' en een Bronze Award in de categorie 'Best B2B Event (< € 500.000)'. Voor de live beleving Offshore Wind Energy Experience die het bureau creëerde voor het Belgische Offshore Platform behaalde het bureau een Gold award in de categorie 'Hybrid Event'.
Maar ook de Belgische evenementenbureaus: Vo Event, Balthazar Events en MeetMarcel vielen in de prijzen. Nederland kreeg erkenning voor de European Meetings & Events Conference 2019 (EMEC19) van MPI Nederland.
Het BEA World Festival bekroont jaarlijks evenementenbureaus voor hun creativiteit, hun vernieuwende aanpak, hun strategische reflectie en de impact van de events die ze organiseren. Dit jaar werden 160 cases ingezonden door bureaus uit 30 Europese en niet-Europese landen. België scoorde dit jaar zeer goed met 29 inzendingen waarvan 17 genomineerd werden.
