SOS Charging Solutions
No matter what type of event you’re hosting, we want our attend-
ees focused on the event. Nothing takes their attention away like
worrying about their dwindling cell phone/tablet battery life. SOS
Charging Solutions aims to fix that problem by offering mobile
charging systems that can be used at any
type of event. Little boxes that can be
decorated to suit your décor style
promises that your guests can stay
fully charged without compromis-
ing the look and feel you were
going for! This innovative product
is available for rent across North
America. For more information, visit

Conference Seating
While the ultimate goal for the attendees at most conferences is edu-
cation, organizers have realized that the connections being made and
opportunity for networking conversations to take place is almost as im-
portant, if not equally as. To facilitate these conversations, conferences
are adding more engagement-friendly seating such as lounge areas
with couches and round standing tables for the breaks and in between
sessions. During session, some retreat back to auditorium or classroom
seating, while others choose to further enhance the networking by hav-
ing groups sit in circles, or buzz groups. When planning the best seating
layout for your conference, make sure to consider the opportunities the
attendees have to engage with each other, and how you can facilitate
that conversation through your layout.
