What's in it for you?
We want to share, discuss and help everyone navigate in a changing world. We want to encourage you to talk about failures as much as successes. Our community will be stronger if all of us encourage innovation by sharing our knowledge. 
 
Together with MPI International will also be gathering resources and learnings which we will share with you after the event.

Topics and takeaways we will focus on

  • Hybrid events:
    What does it take and what are the challenges. What should you as the planner or venue be aware of on the technical side. How to successfully create interaction and network. Most importantly, we want to discuss how to create value for your participants.
  • Online or in-person:
    One size does not fit all. How do we identify the opportunities and challenges? We are going to look to Europe and USA for new ideas and what not to do.
  • Small is beautiful:
    Instead of cut and pasting old event templates for our big gala evenings, employee parties, yearly conferences, we need to step back and look at what we want to achieve for each participant. We need to create wow effects in the little moments since we can not do it by gathering thousands of participants.

By learning from each other’s experiences we want to find new tools for supplier and planners to rethink and reuse old and new and to be open to trying new things – even if it means failing once in a while.

 
Speakers

Susanne Simonsen, Sales & Marketing Rungstedgaard 

In connection with Covid-19, it was clear that we could not run business as usual. As we also host training and educational programmes for the insurance and financial world, we never close the hotel. 

The educational hosts were in separate rooms and ran virtual seminars but of course they had to be catered for. Running the seminars virtually was the start of a new way of running the hotel for us. What did this setup require of our AV equipment and the meeting rooms? How do we deal with the fact that we were not allowed to serve food in the restaurant? How about our delicious little snacks every morning and afternoon? They are always a guest favorite... Should we have hand sanitizer all over the hotel, and do sanitizer even come in a design friendly bottle, that would fit the surroundings?

The were numerous unanswered questions and so many unforeseen details but like everyone else we had to go by the motto learning by doing. We got started and we have now learnt a new way of running our hotel. 

How we succeeded and made it work better than anyone expected, is part of what I would like to share with you. I can promise for fun stories, strange experiences, unforeseen challenges. But most of all it has been full of valuable lessons and powerful team exercise for the hotel and all its employees.

 
Mads Kjer, CEO Ticketbutler

Meet the CEO of Ticketbutler Mads Kjer who will tell you his corona-story about seeing all sales vanish, launching a new product in just 8 days, another new product within the church industry, as well as facilitating sales for Drive-In events all over Denmark.
