How do we organise meetings?
Besides complete incentive travel to beautiful destinations and meticulously organised Events does goMICE also regularly organise various types Meetings for her clients. Sometimes it is nice not to have a business meeting take place at the office, but at an inspiring location. After all, a different environment brings about different thoughts and new ideas. goMICE is happy to organise the perfect meeting for you.
Preparatory phase of organising a meeting
Every meeting is different. A new location, a different layout, a break-out room or not, extra meeting facilities, flipcharts, presentation screens, a morning break with muffins or smoothies, overnight accommodation or not, everything is possible and nothing is too much trouble. For instance, we can always expand a meeting with inspiring teambuilding activities or, say, a lovely dinner. We are happy to discuss the client's wishes with them and then provide a completely bespoke quote. Thanks to our many years of experience, we know many exceptional venues and will always find something that suits the client's requirements.
Visit Amsterdam
A few weeks ago, my colleague Lotte and I spent a day in Amsterdam looking for new and inspiring meeting locations. We criss-crossed the city by bike in search of unique spots. For example, we discovered a brilliant rooftop hotel with fantastic views across the city and a brand-new hotel on the Amstel (QO Amsterdam) where holding a meeting is certainly no hardship.
This hotel has a greenhouse on top of the roof where small vegetables, fruit and edible flowers are grown which are used in the dishes. There are no longer any buttons in the lifts and careful thought has been given to energy, water use and nature. We were able to immediately confirm this location in December for a new enquiry.
Meetings at goMICE
Currently, I am busy with multiple meetings for a large client in the temporary employment sector, a regular client of goMICE. These are taking place in Amsterdam and Rotterdam, among other locations. International guests are coming together from all over the world to hold meetings and network here. Therefore, we want to show them the most beautiful spots in the city.
Method
Once I receive the requirements from my contact person, I will get to work straight away with great pleasure. I will request the availability of various venues so that we can give our client a choice. Finding a suitable hotel for the upcoming meeting in October that offers both hotel rooms and meeting facilities was quite a challenge, as this event coincides with ADE (Amsterdam Dance Event). The final choice fell on Hotel Arena. A hidden gem in the middle of busy Amsterdam at the edge of the Oosterpark. A complete schedule ensures that all parties are aware of all the ins and outs. During a meeting, we keep in close contact with our contact person and the hotel from a distance.
Through short lines of communication, we can always anticipate quickly. We love swift switching, which is why a single goMICE project manager is always the point of contact. Naturally, this is paired with a buddy, who can immediately take over tasks in their absence. We will conclude this gathering with a delicious dinner in Rembrandt's Living Room, the city's newest hotspot where you quickly feel at home. With a fantastic 3-course ‘shared dinner’ menu, guests can relax after an intensive day. After all, they have certainly earned that after a whole day of meetings!
