How to Make Conference Meetings at Convene Fun
When planning a corporate event, the primary challenge often lies in balancing professionalism with engagement. Conferences, while essential for business, can sometimes fall into a monotonous routine. However, hosting your event at Convene offers the perfect opportunity to break this mold and infuse some fun and creativity into your corporate meetings. Convene, a global lifestyle hospitality company, designs and operates premium meeting, event, and flexible office spaces, making it the largest single provider of dedicated meeting and event venues in North America and the UK.
So, how can you make your conference meetings at Convene not only productive but also enjoyable? Here are some innovative ideas to ensure your event stands out and leaves a lasting impression on attendees.
1. Customize Your Event with AI-Driven Music
One unique way to add a personal touch to your conference is by incorporating custom songs with AI Music Service. Imagine starting your meeting with a familiar tune but with lyrics tailored to your event's theme. AI Music Service allows you to change the lyrics of any song while retaining the original singer's voice using advanced AI voice-changing technology. This not only grabs attention but also sets a lively tone for the event.
For instance, Penny Z. requested Lin Manuel Miranda's AI vocals to perform custom lyrics at a non-profit event, set to the tune of "Alexander Hamilton." She shared her experience, saying, "I had an excellent experience from beginning to end with AI Music Service. The end product was even better than I imagined in the short deadline AI Music had to complete the song and the video with lyrics. The video was shown to 300 people at a prominent Manhattan venue and the audience loved it."
2. Interactive Sessions and Gamification
Interactive sessions can transform a standard meeting into an engaging experience. Incorporate elements like live polls, Q&A sessions, and gamified activities to keep the audience involved. Platforms such as Mentimeter or Slido can facilitate real-time interaction, making attendees feel more connected and invested in the proceedings.
3. Incorporate Themed Breakout Sessions
Breakout sessions are a staple in conferences, but why not give them a fun twist? Create themed breakout rooms where attendees can participate in workshops or discussions related to specific topics. For instance, a tech-themed room could feature VR demonstrations, while a wellness room could offer yoga sessions or mindfulness workshops.
4. Leverage Convene’s Premium Amenities
Convene’s venues are known for their state-of-the-art amenities and flexible spaces. Make the most of these facilities by designing a comfortable and inspiring environment. Utilize their modern meeting rooms, high-quality audiovisual equipment, and catering services to create a seamless experience. Providing comfortable seating, good food, and reliable technology can significantly enhance the overall atmosphere and attendee satisfaction.
5. Networking with a Twist
Networking is a crucial aspect of any conference, but it doesn't have to be limited to traditional coffee breaks. Organize networking activities such as speed networking, themed cocktail hours, or interactive workshops. These activities can help break the ice and foster meaningful connections among attendees.
6. Engaging Keynote Speakers and Performances
Invite keynote speakers who are not only knowledgeable but also engaging and entertaining. You can also consider incorporating performances, such as a live band or a comedian, to add a layer of entertainment to your event. This can be a refreshing break from the usual presentations and can re-energize the audience.
