Event Industry Summit set to blaze a trail | The Planner

The MICE industry interest in the second Event Industry Summit has proven the important need for targeted dialogue such as the focused programme taking place on Thursday 1 October at Hackle Brooke Conference Centre.

With conversations taking place with top MICE venues of all types – throughout the country – to high-powered independent planners as the second conversation followed – the inputs from these two outstanding panelists is likely to prove riveting. At this time the Summit has received inputs from several venue management teams and these inputs are poised to begin the Professional Planner Standards as requested by the corporate and association sectors of the MICE industry.

The third conversation will ask the ones requesting standards – that is the salaried planner – to comment on the inputs provided and share their internal methods of operating.

The limited seating has almost been reached. Further standards updates are planned before the next Summit hence if you cannot make it this time around – provide your email details to be kept informed of ongoing developments which could prove of major importance to the trade going forward.
