Our 🧠s are feeling full after the @eventgreenin

Our 🧠s are feeling full after the @eventgreeningforum ‘s interactive workshop this morning! Up for the discussion was the #NetZeroCarbonEvents movement, and how to get from where we are to where we need to be. There is a lot that needs to happen, but there is also a lot of information and support on what to do - including from the Event Greening Forum itself, so please check out their website for more info: eventgreening.co.za. What are you big sustainability questions when it comes to creating events in SA? Post them below and we’ll do our best to research some great answers. #eventgreening #NZCE #greenevents #carbonneutral #carbonoffset #eventprofs #eventpros #MICEevents #meetings #incentives #conferences #exhibitions #events #sustainability #responsiblebusiness

The end of the year is approaching... so we asked

The end of the year is approaching... so we asked Charlene Hefer from @specialisedexhibitions to predict her top exhibition trends for 2024. Here’s what she said: Community and belonging: 🤝💙 The exhibitions industry is all about people. Human connection and fostering a sense of belonging are the cornerstones of successful exhibition design and will become even more important in 2024. It’s a place where you can meet in person with one’s community. A place to gather together as industry peers. Specialised Exhibitions fosters an approach of collaboration between industry stakeholders. By ensuring the exhibition serves all relevant stakeholders, a sense of belonging is created providing a platform where all industry stakeholders can come together and connect. Delivering experiences: 🎉👏Exhibitions not only need to focus on content, but they also need to deliver on experiences. Those attending exhibitions are looking for meaningful connections and entertainment, in addition to the content shared. This is a growing exhibition trend as we head in to 2024. Purely content is not enough. Entertainment in the trade exhibition environment includes live demonstrations, free-to-attend seminars presented by industry experts, interactive displays or touchscreen activations, and virtual reality. We’re also getting closer to AI powered chatbots and facial recognition technology offering personalised assistance and creating a more engaging experience. PLUS 7 more fascinating points!

We were privileged to attend the much anticipated

We were privileged to attend the much anticipated Mamma Mia @pcoalliance boat cruise recently. What a great day out! Ellen Oosthuizen, chairperson of the PCO Alliance, says, “This annual event that the PCO Alliance hosts for our valued industry suppliers, started over ten years ago and is the highlight of our event’s calendar. It is a chance to reconnect with our industry colleagues and fellow members, and to thank them for all the support they give us during the year. We choose a different theme each year to celebrate being together in a fun, relaxed atmosphere. Some of our guests told us on the day that they cannot wait for the next one!” A big shout out to all of the event sponsors, including: @eventsynthesisint (event registration), @cedarwoodsos (departure point, parking, and snacks), @lz_travel_ (return bus), @rov_resort (welcome drinks, entertainment), @chatrxp (green name badges, selfie wall), @zoomphotographyza (photo booth), @aqualoungecruises (boat cruise), @O&L Leisure (social media prizes), and @krispykreme_za (branded doughnuts).

A big thank you to @pcoalliance for the fantastically fun Mama Mia themed get together last Friday.
