It’s the beginning of a new year, and our thirst for knowledge and desire to learn from the leaders in our chosen fields is on the increase. One of the best and most effective ways to educate, learn and network is by hosting or attending a conference. Each year, millions of people from all walks of life descend on corporate conference venues across the globe to attend a diverse range of exhibitions meetings and shows. The 2013 conference calendar is already jam-packed with a great number of events. Corporate conference venues worldwide are preparing to host crowds of thousands as companies, government departments and local organisations put the final touches on their upcoming events. Every hobby and interest imaginable is covered and, while it would be impossible to list them all, there are already several themes beginning to emerge in the 2013 conference scene. Social media Topping the list is social media. The growing world of online networking shows no sign of slowing down and it’s a topic that has caught the attention of audiences worldwide. Hundreds of social media conferences will be held across the globe this year when in the past such an event wouldn’t have existed. World class speakers have been invited to address audiences and discuss everything from online marketing and social media campaigns, to trends and analytics plus innovative tips for thriving in an ever-changing online environment. Business The secret to succeeding in the business world is often a popular conference topic and this year is no exception. A popular suite of conferences in 2013 will be those hosted by Forbes. CEOs, managers and other movers and shakers in the business world will no doubt converge on one of the five Forbes conferences being held in America and Indonesia this year. Highlights will include the Forbes Women’s Summit and the Investors’ Playbook conference covering the secrets to growing wealth in 2013. Environmental and social Non-profit, environmental awareness and social change conferences are also gaining popularity. The Global Philanthropy Forum is set to attract a large audience from across the globe when it’s held this year in California, while one of the largest sustainability conferences will be staged in Miami when Sustainatopia kicks off in April. These are just a taste of what’s on offer on the international conference circuit, however it’s not necessarily the theme or topic that determines a convention’s success. A conference catering for fans of craft can be just as successful as a conference spruiking the latest and greatest in digital technology. The key to any convention or conference’s success is planning. Months and even years can go into the preparation of an event. Key factors that influence the outcome of any good event include the location of the business conference centre, timing facilities, nearby or onsite accommodation, and of course catering. A successful event demands high levels of professionalism from both the host and the service providers. The best corporate conference venues not only meet a combination of needs, but are also willing to go the extra mile to fulfil them. If you’re planning on hosting a conference, do some research and attend an event similar to the one you’re planning. A quick search on the internet will deliver a list of conferences in your area.
