With a myriad of online solutions available to manage delegates, some forget that delegates are our guests and they need looking after. Mike and Helen chat about the importance of good delegate data, but maximising its potential.

Having the 'Technical Know How and How To' for conferences and events enables creativity, engagement and outcomes. Its not all about big trucks and miles of cable as Mike finds out from Paul in this next Mm Comms cast Episode.

Its been a long time since the first lockdown, and still we are treading carefully to ensure the virus doesn't get the upper hand.  In the world of Events, the story is never ending and for ever evolving and thankfully we have been able to support our event customers with creative and flexible online solutions in the form of Virtual Events.  There is a further development though, and Hybrid Events are rising up the charts giving even more flexibility, interaction and a live audience dare we say it!   Listen in to what our Event Director 'PK' has to say about the evolving nature of the pandemic event formats and the considerations required.  Enjoy!

Whilst the world is 'slowly' showing signs of recovery from the pandemic, the easing of restrictions strengthens even further the need to put safety and protection at the top of the agenda, especially when creating events. With over 27 years of business event design and management, we are used to adapting to change and once again, we have adapted to a new norm in our planning process.  Here's Helen to share more about some of the steps we have been taking to beat the virus.

The pandemic has been tough to deal with and coming out of it doesn't make things much easier. As business event organisers and managers, we are re-writing the guide book to build delegate confidence in the way events are managed.  There's still so much uncertainty and event formats will be on trial for a while, but here's a conversation that will make you think better about your event planning.

When you spend years creating events, you notice things in life on a daily basis that could have been done better with your expertise - had it been available, or even recognised as a possible necessity.   Our event logistics geek Helen, noticed something rather rewarding during lockdown and here, she shares the excitment of her findings.  Listen and learn.

Spring has sprung and businesses can start to spread their wings a little more. The careful lifting of restrictions is great news and so now is the time to get thinking about using great media to enhance and build communication momentum again.  If you have minimised your communication or at worse not done any, now is the time to get cracking.  Maximise the use of those channels and reconnect, revitalise and invigorate your teams for a new and positive future.  This podcast shares some insights into this bounce back.  Many people have been missing out on using their media channels for maximum potential so we are here to help you step up and bounce back.  Enjoy.

Don't be down, don't be blue, Christmas is different but so are you!  Yes, this year has made us all think and do things differently and this very special time of year need can be different and brilliant!  Listen in and get in the mood.   Merry Christmas everyone and wishing you a much better 2021!!

If you still have teams working from home, you can pick up some great ideas here on how to add some thought to the way you communicate and keep your teams engaged.  Helen is always thinking about the people when it comes to event planning and even without events to go to she has been gathering some great ideas. Listen in and check them out.

Now is the time when visual communication can really help businesses to reconnect and get back in the game. For months, life has been on hold and although we tread carefully as we emerge, its a good time to produce those informative and engaging videos that will build momentum and connectivity. Here we talk about maximising the use of video across various chanels and for different purposes.  Our hints and tips for great briefing, planning and budgeting will be invaluable.  Enjoy!
