Venue Finder Insight
By Carrie Larwood, MD Function Fixers
An unusual venue can make a conference far more memorable, but it still has to work as a conference venue. Check the acoustics, sightlines, AV, Wi-Fi and breakout spaces carefully, and think about how delegates will move around the building. Character can be a real advantage, but not if it makes the event harder to run.
