About Chain of Events

Chain of Events brings together the people shaping the future of technology, business and innovation through three leading summits in Paris.

Chain of Events runs three summits, all in Paris, all within the same week:

• Signal Week - the institutional summit for digital assets. Founded in 2019 as Paris Blockchain Week and elevated to Signal Week in 2026, it draws 10,000+ attendees from 100+ countries, roughly 70% of them C-suite. Its last edition convened 250+ banks and financial institutions, over $50T in assets under management, and 70 government officials and regulators - BlackRock, J.P. Morgan, Deutsche Bank, Fidelity, BNY Mellon, Citi, the London Stock Exchange, ESMA and the European Commission among them. The thesis: TradFi and digital assets are no longer two industries but one financial system being rebuilt on shared rails.

• RAISE Summit - the AI summit for decision-makers. Launched in 2024, it has grown from 2,000 to 9,000+ attendees across three editions (80%+ C-level, from 76 countries), with 350+ speakers spanning AI infrastructure, enterprise adoption, agentic systems, sovereignty and policy. The 2026 edition at the Carrousel du Louvre featured Mark Cuban, Yann LeCun and Nelson Griggs (Nasdaq), plus the Versailles AI Gala, the RAISE Hackathon and RAISE the STAKES (1,100+ startup applications in 2026).

• MACHINA Summit - Europe's leading event dedicated to Physical AI: intelligence that acts on the real world through humanoids, industrial robotics, autonomous systems and next-generation human–machine interfaces. Its inaugural 2026 edition brought together the labs building humanoids and the enterprises deploying robotics at scale, with speakers from Google DeepMind, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, 1X, Apptronik and Agility Robotics. It's the fastest-moving brand in the portfolio, with the most white space ahead of it.

In July 2026, all three brands were acquired by Hyve Group, the global B2B events organiser behind Fintech Meetup, HLTH and Shoptalk. In July 2027, they'll converge on the Palais des Congrès during the exact same week.

Role Overview

Chain of Events is looking for a mid-level freelance Video Editor to produce video content for RAISE Summit and MACHINA Summit, reporting into the Producer / PM for Creative Services and working closely with the Marketing Lead for RAISE and MACHINA, the motion designer, and the brand, social, and event teams. This is a high-priority, hands‑on role for an editor who can work fast, tell a strong story, and keep two distinct brands sharp across every format.

Video sits at the heart of how both summits sell: launch films, speaker and sponsor content, social clips, and stage and LED screen content. You'll take projects from raw footage to finished edit, working within each brand's guidelines and to tight campaign deadlines, and help capture and turn around content during the summits themselves in July.

This freelance contract runs from 1 January to 31 July 2027, covering the launch and build-up to both 2027 editions at the Palais des Congrès - RAISE on 7-8 July, opening with the Versailles AI Gala, and MACHINA, set to double in size - the summits themselves, and post-event content.

Key Responsibilities

Campaign & Launch Video

• Edit launch films, campaign videos, and trailers for RAISE and MACHINA, in line with each brand's look, tone, and guidelines.

• Produce speaker, sponsor, and session videos, from interview edits to short promotional cuts.

• Cut and version each video into the formats, lengths, and aspect ratios each channel needs.

• Keep project files, footage, and templates organised and archived so the team can find and reuse them easily.

Social & Short-Form Content

• Create short-form video for LinkedIn and other social channels, including clips, highlights, recaps, and captioned edits.

• Repurpose talks, interviews, and archive footage from past editions into fresh content for each campaign moment.

• Work with the social teams to plan and turn around content quickly around launches, announcements, and pricing deadlines.

Motion, Screens & Onsite Content

• Work alongside the motion designer to combine edit, motion graphics, and brand animation, including titles, lower thirds, and transitions.

• Prepare stage, LED screen, and walk-in content for both summits to each screen's technical specs, and turn around same-day and recap edits onsite in July.

Sound, Colour & Delivery

• Handle sound mixing, music selection, subtitles, and colour correction to a consistently high standard.

• Deliver final files to spec for each plat
