Dear Event Professionals,
Has it really been over a year since the pandemic first swept across the globe?
For those of us in the events industry, the coronavirus pandemic has triggered a whole range of challenges; for many, (from brands to agencies to vendors), the situation has sometimes felt insurmountable. But this doesn’t need to be the case. In fact, the worst thing the events industry can do is nothing.
We’re now officially in the second half of 2021 and it’s never been clearer that returning to events means learning to live with COVID, not outwait its end. Understandably, returning to events safely and in an entirely new environment is intimidating. Events companies are looking for new ways to surf the wave of the pandemic and continue putting on fabulous events without unforeseen problems which might derail their success. Keep reading for the DMC Collective’s (The DMC) top three tips for returning to events safely and successfully.
Doesn’t time fly? It’s hard to believe that it’s almost been a year since the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic in March 2020. In the time since then, we have all adapted to a new way of life. From completing the working week remotely to social distancing and wearing face masks while out in public, we’ve had to approach our day-to-day lives differently to keep ourselves and others safe.
A remote tropical island, white sands, floating villas… those are the typical images we believe others associate with a corporate reward trip.
However, in real life, the answers to what their dream holiday would entail are likely to differ. Nowadays, travel is much more accessible, with destinations that once seemed too luxurious becoming affordable for an average traveller. Also, with social media and online platforms, such as TripAdvisor, tourists now have a plenty of options and information to tailor their trips.
Running a startup is no mean feat. When first getting set up, it can mean juggling multiple roles, chasing investment all while trying to attract business and secure growth. In such an environment, events may well seem like a luxury – not something to put at the top of your to-do list. Yet, events actually offer an unparalleled opportunity for growth, reputation building and even room for scouting talent. Keep reading to find out four reasons events help startups grow.
