How to Create a Memorable Business Event

We know that organising a Memorable Business Event is rewarding but also challenging. With this in mind we are more than happy to share our top tips which we believe makes a Memorable Business Event.

1) Planning and preparation

Plan as early as possible in order to secure your preferred location and the most desirable conference space
Determine the purpose of the event
Work out how many delegates will be attending the event and consider their needs such as travel requirements
Determine your budget and also check whether it is inclusive or exclusive of VAT

2) Selecting a Venue

Select a venue which most reflects your needs
Whether hosting a board meeting, managing a company conference for 600 or organising team building, the unique forest setting at all of our Center Parcs locations provides an ideal environment for business events
We always encourage our new clients to join us on a site visit prior to their event

3) Provide your venue with all your requirements

The more information you provide the smoother your event is likely to run
Ensure that communication methods have been finalised prior to the event and that any technical requirements have been organised before your arrival such as Data Projectors and LCD Screens
We have dedicated event teams at Elveden, Longleat and Sherwood Forest who are there to provide assistance and support leading up to your event

4) Keen to be green

Save on paper by using electronic communication such as emails where possible
Send copies of presentations by email after the meeting has taken place

5) Utilise the refreshing outdoors

Maximise on employee well being, productivity and maintain morale within the work force by utilising outdoor space for team building activities
Our exciting team building offerings allow delegates to feel the benefits of fresh air, welfare and learning

6) Food for thought

Good quality food can massively influence the overall successfulness of a meeting
Ensure that delegates who have dietary requirements provide as much notice as possible in order to ensure that they are catered for
Our chefs have created a range of menus to suit all business needs; from light salads through to hearty hot favourites

7) Make your meeting Memorable

Be creative and think of ways to make the event as memorable as possible whilst keeping in with the purpose of the event
Don’t forget small exciting gifts which will leave a long lasting impression of the event with your delegates

8) Feedback

Ensure you collate feedback from your delegates especially if you will be looking to repeat the meeting
Your opinion will be important to your recent Venue therefore report back on the positive and areas for improvement
