Thanks @hoxbycollective team for keeping me in check this year for @runup2christmas
We're spread all over the world but these ladies have kept me going.
I'll probably still run Christmas day @selbyparkrun so my share miles can be donated.

A fabulous #hardhat tour of @thelondoner with @gailstella

This venue will really be something special and I can't wait to bring an event to this central London gem.

The business plan is being shared Monday but here's a sneak preview.
I can't wait to see what the other teams came up with too. I'm sure between ask the #eventprofs that took part there were some really great ideas.... #Repost @eventplannerstalk (@get_repost)

Who’s excited to see the final business plan? It will be published in full on Monday, 18 May, on our website, but until then we don’t want to keep you waiting any longer and here give you a sneak peek to the winning entry by @natasharussellevents @amycowanevents @katinka_eventsbykm @gyam16 @magentaghana and @eventsanastasiya. The winning dream team of international #eventprofs 🌏

We (@megstrahle and @themiceblog) awarded this business plan because there was great detail on what the agency wants to do, and how they will do it. They've introduced phases to the recovery plan, and focused to sustainability by discussing locality and presented how they'll add hybrid and online events to existing services. We enjoyed the approach towards maintaining a strong identity as an agency and being visible during the pandemic. -
There was a great approach for putting new protective procedures in place as this will be a big concern for #eventprofs and businesses moving forward post COVID-19. We enjoyed the idea of developing new roles according to different needs, such as moving to content marketing, logistics manager to shift things by post, and online relation management. We enjoyed the idea of creating own profit-making experiences, and especially looking at new services such as virtual assistants and copywriting. The detailed listing of all industry associations, online events and their webinar offerings was excellent and event industry professionals can maintain ongoing education and networking.
-
This was a very operational and hands-on, close to the industry and understanding how market needs will evolve. It is also very open to adapting to the new reality whilst also creating new roles. Creating a four-phase recovery plan was very strategic and we appreciated that the team was very aware of all industry associations and understanding the new need to make crisis communication paramount and integrating it in

So proud to be part of this winning team with a great gang of event pros. I'm sure all the teams have had great ideas and hopefully we can all share our thoughts over the next few weeks.... #Repost @eventplannerstalk (@get_repost)

And the hackathon winner is..! 🎉

After two nerve wrecking weeks the anticipation is over and we are super excited to announce the #eventprostalk hackathon winner!
Above all - we want to thank all the teams for your participation, contribution and the excellent teamwork! You delivered an outstanding work and we were so impressed by the high standards of submissions and concepts thus setting very high standards for the future hackathons, so really really well done!! All four entries were of high quality that exceeded all expectations, and each business plan had elements that made it stand out from the rest. The decision wasn’t easy. All entries were different but original in their own way.
We truly hope that throughout this process you’ve been able to have personal wins, be it learning a new tool, developing a new idea or connecting with new event planners because for us this process has been a rewarding journey meeting and working with all of you and we hope to stay in touch. We’re very sad that it’s over now, but the good news is that it’s a beginning of new connections and new learning experience.

CONGRATULATIONS Group 5!! We loved your business plan, there is great detail on what the agency wants to do, and how they will do it. You’ve delivered a very operational and hands-on concept, very MICE industry focused, demonstrating a strong understanding how the market needs will evolve while being very open to adapt to the new reality.
Outstanding team effort @amycowanevents @katinka_eventsbykm @natasharussellevents @eventsanastasiya and @gyam16

Looking for some paperwork and forgot I hid these #event leftovers in my filing cabinet.

Small wins.

It's Earth Day!
#Events are not known for being the most Earth Friendly but as organisers we are constantly looking to be more #sustainable and reduce our environmental impact.

Did you know you can work out the carbon footprint of an event?

What tips do you have?

You can still be planning & researching your future events. Can we help with venue finding? We can look at your brief and produce a comprehensive venue report, in many cases sharing virtual tours. Get ahead with your next event to #comebackstronger.

Usually have a few #massparticipation #events in my calendar but the current climate means we should all be #socialdistancing and #exercising responsibly. Could you move your event to virtual? A great open for #charities affected by #coronavirus to continue #fundraising and engage communities.
