# HCCB Partners Meet 2026: A film-premiere app for partners and employees Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages brought its Maharashtra–Goa partners to Goa in July 2026 for a two-day Partners Meet. Sociana built the app as a film premiere: a VIP entry, Home laid out in scenes, a Show Flow agenda, flights and hotel per guest, awards, brand games and live polls, and separate content for partners and HCCB employees.

The meet mixed leadership addresses and an awards night with the kind of hospitality a destination trip needs: flights, rooms, dress codes and a beach-side safety briefing. ## What the client needed A partner meet has two audiences in one hotel. Distributors and retailers are guests to be looked after and recognised; HCCB’s own employees are hosts with a different programme and different information. The app had to serve both, without either group seeing content meant for the other. The app also had to carry the trip itself. Partners were travelling, so each needed their own flight and hotel details in one place, plus the dress code for every evening and clear safety guidance for Goa. And the meet had a Bollywood theme, so the app was built to feel like a premiere, not a form. ## What we built ### A VIP entry, and a sign-in for everyone The app opens on a red carpet with camera flashes and a VIP ENTRY card. Guests type the mobile number the event team registered for them and receive a six-digit code; international guests use their email address instead. First-timers add a name and, if they like, a photo, tap Enter the Meet, and are greeted by name in an animated welcome. ![Cinema themed login with a red carpet, a VIP entry card, a phone field and a Send OTP button](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-26-1.webp) Login: the VIP entry card. A note under the field points international guests to email sign-in. ### Two groups, one app Every guest’s number was assigned to Partners or to HCCB employees, and each group received content meant for it. A number not yet assigned saw only Home and Profile, with a message to contact the helpdesk. Notifications could be addressed to one group or both. ### Home, told in scenes Home reads like a film programme. The header shows the event mark, a bell for notifications, a welcome back and a scrolling HCCB news strip. Below it sit a Now Showing and Up Next card, an Action In countdown in days, hours, minutes and seconds, and a strip with hotel offers for guests. Scene I holds four poster tiles (Show Flow, Highlights, Awards, Games) and a Live Polls card. Scene II previews the schedule, with the live session in gold and the next one in red. Scene III is the Event Guide: the Style Guide and the Do’s and Don’ts. ![Home header with a next up event card, an Action In countdown, a company news ticker and a hotel offer strip](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-29-2.webp) Home: the next session, the countdown, HCCB news and a hotel offer for guests. ### Show Flow, by acts and scenes The agenda became Show Flow: day tabs labelled as Acts, sessions as scenes, each with time, title and hall, and Live and Up Next badges that move through the day. ![Show Flow with Act 0 and Act I day tabs, a Now Playing card and session cards, leader names blurred](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-32.webp) Show Flow: one tab per day, from registration and the inauguration to the evening programme. ### Flights and hotel on each guest’s Profile Profile shows the guest’s name, designation, company, city and employee code, then My Flights and Accommodation: the hotel, check-in and check-out as arranged by the event team. Anything not yet confirmed is marked that way, and the guest can tap Update to add or correct details. A contact card shows the phone and email the team holds. ![Profile with an Accommodation card naming the hotel, check-in on 27 July and check-out on 29 July, email blurred](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-35-2.webp) Accommodation on Profile, shown on a test account: hotel, check-in and check-out. ### Games and polls built around HCCB’s own brands Three games filled the gaps between sessions. Conference Bingo had guests tick off the day: check-in, stalls, experiences and the gala night. HCCB Beverages Trivia tested knowledge of HCCB brands, the beverages market and distribution. Who Am I? gave clues to Goa landmarks, Indian beverages or HCCB brands, with a Reveal Next Clue button. Live Polls asked Bollywood questions with a brand twist, such as which film-style entry, paired with which HCCB drink, suits a celebration by the sea, and showed results as votes arrived. ![Games page listing HCCB Beverages Trivia, Conference Bingo and Who Am I as coloured cards](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-33.webp) Games: trivia on HCCB brands, bingo for the day’s moments, and a clue-by-clue guessing game. ### Awards from nomination to winner Before the ceremony, the Awards tab listed the nominees for each award with the selection criteria. After it, the tab showed winner cards with photo, name and category, appearing once they were announced on stage. ![Awards tab with a grid of gold Winners tiles, partner business names blurred](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-32-2.webp) Awards: winners shown as trophy cards after the ceremony. ### The practical pages a destination trip needs The Style Guide listed the dress code for every event, day by day, with styling tips. Do’s and Don’ts carried a Travel Advisory for the Goa trip: safety first, personal safety, health, respect for local laws and responsible travel, ending with emergency contacts and a declaration. The Venue Map listed the hotel’s zones floor by floor alongside the banquet seating plan, and Emergency gathered the operations control room, the hotel, the police and the nearest hospitals, each one tap away. ![Travel Advisory for the Goa trip grouped into Safety First, Responsible Travel and Personal Safety guidelines](https://sociana.in/screens/hccb-partners-meet-2026/2026-10-07-14-16-34.webp) Do’s and Don’ts: the Goa travel advisory, grouped so guests can read it before they fly. ## How it ran on the day Organisers worked from their own phones. Managers and Owners saw Attendance and Trigger Notifications on their Profile. Attendance was kept per category, such as a session, a dinner or an activity, with All, Present and Absent counts. Scanning a guest’s QR marked them present and showed the organiser the guest’s details and whether their documents were in; a guest without their code could be added by email or phone. Notifications went out at set times to chosen groups: one asked everyone to arrive by 7:30 PM so the awards ceremony could start on time, another invited guests to share their photos. A plus button on the Reel let the team post up to five images or one video at a time, which guests could like, comment on and share to WhatsApp. ## What came out of it The app delivered a programme that told each guest what was live and what came next, travel details on each guest’s own Profile, award winners named in the app after the ceremony, and a Highlights gallery with Smart Lens, which finds the photos a guest appears in instead of making them scroll albums. Partners and employees used one app and still each saw what was meant for them. ## What we would do again - Assign every guest to a group before launch. One app with two groups is simpler to run, update and support than two separate apps. - Rename the familiar to fit the theme. Show Flow, acts, scenes and a VIP entry made ordinary screens part of the event. - Keep travel and stay on the guest’s own Profile, with an easy way to correct it. - Build games from the client’s own world. Trivia and clues about HCCB brands and Goa gave partners something to talk about.
