Do you handle hybrid and recorded sessions?

Yes, when there is a reason for it. A remote audience served properly needs its own producer, its own run of show and its own moderation — a camera at the back of the room is not a hybrid event. If the remote audience is small and passive, we will usually recommend recording and publishing instead, and say so.

Conference & Congress Management

Annual meetings, association congresses and customer conferences run as one plan — venue, programme, speakers, registration, sponsors, hotels, arrivals and the helpdesk.

A conference is not one event. It is a programme, a production, a travel operation, a registration system and a sponsorship business running in the same building at the same time, and it fails at the seams between them.

We run all five under one programme lead. The agenda drives the floorplan, the floorplan drives the technical spec, the registration categories drive the badge design and the room capacities, and the arrival waves drive the transfer and check-in staffing. Change one, and we change the rest — instead of finding out on day one that they disagree.

Conference & Congress Management — how the workstream is structured — Programme · delegates · stage · sponsors8 inclusions

The agenda is the plan

Everything downstream is decided by the agenda: how many rooms, at what set, with what turnaround between sessions, and whether nine hundred people can get coffee in twenty minutes without missing the next keynote. We build the agenda against the building, not against a blank page.

Speakers are managed, not chased

One content desk, one deadline, one controlled version of every deck. Speakers get a briefing pack, a rehearsal slot and a person whose job is their session. Files land in one place, get checked on the show system, and are locked before doors open — because a deck emailed during lunch is how plenaries fall behind.

Registration is an operations decision

Delegate categories decide who sees which sessions, who needs approval, what the badge says, which rooms are capacity-controlled and what the door staff do with an exception. We design that logic before the registration site opens, and we test the journeys as a delegate would walk them.

Sponsors get what was sold

Sponsorship is a contract with deliverables — visibility, sessions, meeting space, delegate access, lead capture. We track delivery item by item and hand the sponsor evidence at close-out. Renewals are decided on that, not on how the party went.

Arrivals decide the first impression

Delegates judge a conference in the first forty minutes: the airport, the transfer, the hotel desk, the badge queue. We plan by arrival wave — staffing check-in and registration where the volume actually lands rather than spreading it evenly across the day.

What you get

Deliverables, not intentions.

These are the artefacts that exist at the end of this workstream. If one of them is missing from a proposal you have received elsewhere, it is worth asking why.
