Accommodating a Growing Guest List

Challenge: The client wanted to host a 500-person patient day event to elevate awareness of a disease, present their work, and celebrate early success in clinical trials. The event started as a smaller number of anticipated attendees, but with an overwhelming response, the client wanted to include as many patients as possible.

Creating a Cost-Effective Experience

Challenge: Our client wanted a high-quality 75-person investigator meeting within the budget constraints of a medical meeting that required open payment reporting. Our challenge was to maximize the experience within these budget constraints, while still exceeding our client’s expectations.

eXceeding eXpectations: The meeting was a great success overall. We integrated some creative low-cost alternatives such as dining poolside at the hotel, which allowed the meeting to come in under budget.
Promoting Practice Development
Client: Leading Medical Device Company
Challenge: Our client requested a 50-person practice development event for a group of doctors and practice managers. The meeting’s purpose was to discuss patient flow and marketing in order to increase patient adoption of an enhanced medical procedure. We were challenged to find enough space to hold the side meeting during a conference and stay within the budget, while still making the event inviting for paying attendees.
Solution: Our team maintained constant negotiations with the hotel up to the pre-conference meeting. We also continued to coordinate with other vendors throughout the day of the event in order to meet the client’s needs.

Client: Leading Pharma/Medical Device Company
Challenge: Our client requested a 250-person team building and training event. They wanted to pull together several teams that had previously worked in silos, but needed training and cross-training while developing into a cohesive team. The group size increased more than twice during planning, which created a logistical challenge. We needed to coordinate the details from the different groups coming together for the first time, while fitting into the space originally allocated by the hotel.
Solution: Our team maintained constant contact with all parties prior to the meeting to coordinate the many last minute additions and changes.
eXceeding eXpectations: We were able to handle and coordinate all of the details, despite the challenging logistics and size of the event. The event was a great success, and the newly formed team is looking forward to making this an annual event.
