No doubt you will have noticed that we get fantastic feedback from our conferences. We put a lot of time and effort into creating the right ambience and putting in place a superior format for our conferences. When this is combined with the type of people and organisations that attend our conferences it creates a fantastic event. Here are some of the contributing factors:
THE WAY THE EVENT IS STRUCTURED AND DELIVERED
We structure the conference into mini sessions – each one of these has 3 to 4 short and sharp presentations, this is followed by a ‘roundtable discussion period’ (see below for more information) and then we have a traditional panel discussion. We think this is just about the perfect combination – presentations to inspire the discussions, roundtable discussions to feed into the panel discussion.
“Many thanks again for putting on a great event. I did really enjoy the format and industry contacts I managed to get from the conference.”
Neil Croft, Founder, Mahala Mobile
OUR UNIQUE INTERACTIVE ROUNDTABLE SEATING FORMAT.
If you’ve been to one of our events then you’ll understand why this makes such a difference, if you haven’t then we hope you’ll attend to experience it.
In effect everyone sits on a roundtable with their peers, as opposed to in rows. This simply multiplies the number of people you meet in face-to-face situations.
It works fantastically well and from the feedback we receive we believe it is a multiplier in terms of attendees’ on-the-day experience.
“Congratulations on a well-structured conference. The best I have ever attended. The presentations were good – I have learnt a lot. The best was the networking and the valuable input from my peers. I have nothing negative to say.”
Margaret Vyver-Rambau, Marketing Manager, Van Schaik Bookstore
THE EVENT WILL BE HELD AT THE 5* HYATT REGENCY IN ROSEBANK.
We used the Hyatt last year and we’re coming back in 2011. The space is great, it has a lovely garden area for the event reception and it allows us to have a sit down lunch as well, which is a nice alternative to buffets.
“Congratulations again for a fantastic event, very professionally organised and with remarkable speakers and audience. I have attended and spoken at many conferences in my career and can with certainly say this was one of the very best.”
Christophe Viarnaud, Managing Director, Methys
WE FOCUS INTENTLY ON THE FINER DETAILS.
We’re going to deliver you a high quality experience: a really well organised conference, that runs on time, with silver service throughout. Organising events is what we do as our profession, so please expect a professional feel to the conference.
At all amber we respect the impact that food and beverages can have on people. That’s why you won’t find any limp croissants or muffins or even mints on tables. Instead it’s canapés for breakfast, delicious snacks throughout and the odd lollipop, mini chocolate bar or wasabi nuts (if you’re a veteran of 2009 this will have special meaning).
“Thanks for the invite to MWA2010. It was extremely worthwhile in terms of content and contacts made. The organisation was also top-notch, definitely better than other conferences that I attended.”
Gerrie Swart, Lead Developer, Flickswitch
