Business events

In this blog, we discuss 3 trends that you can take into account when organizing your business event.

The huge catch-up in terms of events has begun. Locations are often no longer available and it takes considerable planning to get everything done. But what other challenges are coming your way?

3 trends to take your business event to the next level

Are you looking for ways to revamp your next business meeting? Read through the trends below and get inspired to organize a business meeting, conference or event that is just a little bit different.

Trend 1 - Provide sustainable catering

It will probably come as no surprise: sustainability is higher and higher on the agenda in the events industry. Ideally, you should host an event at a green venue, provide sustainable catering and a clear recycling policy. Did you know that Avis also rents refrigerated vans? Ideal for keeping the food and drinks you serve fresh and chilled.

Trend 2 - Scheduling networking time

Especially in this age of hybrid working, attendees at your event will consider it important that there is actual time for networking. Therefore, consider facilitating meeting places that inspire. Schedule enough breaks so that people can also speak to each other face-to-face. It is a plus when the area around your event venue also has something to offer in terms of nature and/or culture.

Trend 3 - Green transportation options

Especially in this age of hybrid working, attendees at your event will consider it important that there is actual time for networking. Therefore, consider facilitating meeting places that inspire. Schedule enough breaks so that people can also speak to each other face-to-face. It is a plus when the area around your event venue also has something to offer in terms of nature and/or culture. Trend 3 - Green transportation options Have you thought about how you will bring - for example - hardware or catering to the event? Using an Avis Mobility Card is immensely convenient for you as an organizer.... The Avis Mobility Card allows you to easily travel by train, tram, metro, van or rental bike. You can also make use of rental cars. So there are plenty of opportunities to get from A to B. All that with one card. Suppose you are bringing various props to an event venue, but you yourself have to immediately go on to your next appointment? Just leave the van and continue traveling by public transport!

Other benefits of using the Avis Mobility Card are:

When employees use the Avis Mobility Card, you are relieved of a lot of administrative hassle. No more receipts and claim forms! Another benefit is that you are encouraging sustainable transportation, which ties in nicely with your CSR goals. Are you ready to apply these trends? We would be happy to provide you with input on (sustainable) mobility solutions!
