If you've been to a convention or even a major corporate special event recently you may well realise why they refer to them as "conventions." They have all appeared to be so very comparable, extremely predictable and when looking at layout, very conventional. Nevertheless, it would appear that this is currently evolving. Coordinators today are contemplating whether they ought to be establishing something that is much more akin to a reality television setting than to the normal business "get together."
If companies are likely to be investing a lot of money on these conventions and meetings going forward they need to be certain that delegates are going to get the most out of their involvement. Thus, expect some very precise event tailoring as well as professional format configurations.
Don't expect it to be a 9-to-5 affair anymore with various refreshment breaks, breakouts and routine. As an example, you will probably find that the lounge area is a central part of the mix in the near future, allowing attendees to network within a "purpose built" space and making a breakout the focal point of the entire day.
You may expect to find a variety of presentation screens being utilised inside the conference area so participants can concentrate on particular parts of the business mix rather than all concentrating on one core presentation screen. People might actually skip a part of the programme or possibly a keynote speaker during one particular part of the day, but catch up with the actual "substance" of the presentation at some stage and in another part of the property, later on.
For those associated with establishing these function spaces there are a lot of obstacles in the future. As an example in terms of chairs UK event coordinators may have to pull in a lot more casual seating for those breakout areas and a lesser number of formal chairs for the normal function layout. Maybe they'll have to bring in cafe chairs as well as tables in greater numbers as a whole lot more "business" is going to be executed within these kinds of situations. Maybe they will need to pull in a variety of bar stools as well, if more business is supposed to be executed within a semi-formal setting in the future.
