Social programs for meetings and conferences

A social program gives participants time to talk outside the lectures. City tours, museum visits or a shared evening reception are suitable examples.

We suggest options and coordinate locations, capacity and time slots with the main program. We then coordinate bookings, suppliers and on-site support.

Conversations outside the talk program

Social programs support informal discussion and personal meetings on equal terms.

Reflect the event topic in the social program

An exhibition, tour or suitable venue can illustrate and complement the specialist topic.

Engage different audiences

Tours, excursions and open meeting points appeal to different interests and create time for conversations.

A suitable place for breaks and conversations

Location, facilities and scheduling determine whether participants want to use breaks and the evening program.

Accessibility and catering requirements

Requirements for accessibility, catering and other social or environmental aspects are agreed with service providers.
