Here are our 10 top tips for planning your next
corporate event/conference. By providing this information
to companies such as ourselves, we are in a much better position
to be able to assist you with your event/conference.
1. Establish a clear objective for your event/conference
and ensure that all those involved understand this objective.
2. Think about the needs and expectations of your delegates,
both as individuals and as a group, and keep this in mind
as you start to make arrangements - this can include the event/conference
topic, activities, venue location, etc.
3. When putting together your programme, ensure that it is
balanced, stimulating and fun - maybe even including a surprise
element! - whilst clearly meeting your objective.
4. Have a checklist that you work to in order to ensure nothing
gets missed - planning and preparation will help guarantee
your event/conference is a success.
5. Ensure the venue you choose is in a location suitable
for both your delegates to get to and for the type of event/conference
you are planning - eg do you need outdoor space, is the meeting
room large enough to accommodate any internal activities you
may want to offer, is it easily accessible by public transport,
etc.
6. Keep delegates informed with frequent clear communication
- let them know if you expect them to do any pre-event/conference
work, dress code, venue details, etc.
7. Have an "event planning team" so that the burden
isn't all on you! Delegate tasks amongst the team to alleviate
some of the pressure.
8. Decide upon your budget and stick to it! If you have a
small budget, bear in mind that agents such as ourselves can
often negotiate prices with venues, etc.
9. Just as important as all of the above is what you do after
the event. Carry out a full post-event evaluation - send out
questionnaires, elicit feedback - whether it's positive, negative
or constructive criticism it will all help when you plan your
next event!
