MullenLowe Romania turns simplicity into a brand statement for Artesia: “Just water”
Work
MullenLowe Romania, through its Events and Experiential division, created an immersive experience for Alcon that redefined the way medical innovation in ophthalmology is presented to the specialist community. Under the concept “The New Perspective. Experience Extraordinary.”, the event brought together approximately 200 ophthalmologists from across the country, alongside international speakers, in a format designed to go beyond the classic conventions of a medical conference.
Held on April 25 at HALO Events Centre in Bucharest, the venue was transformed into a spectacular setting where technology became an integral part of the experience. The panoramic 360° LED screen, state-of-the-art audio-video systems, and modular architecture created a dynamic scenography designed to support not just a launch, but a format that offered a new perspective on the future of ophthalmic surgery.

The event marked the Romanian market premiere of the new system developed by UNITY VCS. Conceived as an integrated platform, it brings together essential functionalities for ophthalmic surgery, supporting more predictable procedures and more efficient management of operating room processes through precise control, stability, and workflow optimization.
The entire concept was built so that the scientific information was naturally supported by rhythm, imagery, and a memorable reveal moment, in which technology was showcased through a captivating experience. Participants were invited to discover not only the functionalities of the new system, but also its impact on medical practice, in a format that integrated educational content with impactful visual and sensory elements.
Raluca Crăciun, Product Manager Surgical, Alcon.The event was centered on people and on the realities of the OR: honest discussions, shared experiences, and the aspects that matter in everyday clinical practice. The launch of Unity VCS/CS marks an important milestone, demonstrating that innovation is no longer an abstract concept or a promise for the future, but a reality that is concretely changing the way work is done in the operating room.
The collaboration between Alcon and MullenLowe Romania continued from a shared desire to build a different framework for presenting medical innovation, one in which technology, content, and emotion work together in a unified format.
Ciprian Dumitru, Event Manager, MullenLowe RomâniaTrust is built over time, and this event represented an important step in strengthening our partnership with Alcon Romania. From the very beginning, we set out to go beyond the format of a medical conference and build a memorable, relevant, and differentiating experience. We integrated technology, storytelling, and content into a coherent format designed to support both the launch moment and the brand’s direction of innovation. The final result confirms that we can raise the standards in organizing industry events.
The event agenda brought together international and local speakers, who addressed both scientific perspectives and concrete clinical applications. The discussions highlighted the current challenges in ophthalmic surgery and the way next-generation technologies can support doctors through greater control, efficiency, and predictability. The event was appreciated by participants and international guests as one of the strongest UNITY launches in Europe, standing out for the quality of its execution, content, and visual experience.

Through this project, MullenLowe Romania’s Events and Experiential division strengthens its role in developing relevant formats for the local market, aligned with international standards. The event created for Alcon reflects a shift in perspective on how medical innovation is communicated, bringing technology closer to doctors’ real-life practice.
