3 Dedicated Venues The agency assurance Nikki Morris, venue operations director, GES EMEA, on how contracting agencies ensure venues deliver the best t GES, we’re proud to work alongside a wide range of venues. Our long-standing relationships with venue operations teams, along with intimate knowledge of venue spaces, allow us to support our clients wherever they choose to hold their event. Partnering with venues is a critical part of our business. Each client and event has unique requirements, so it’s vital that we work together and share our knowledge in order to help our clients meet their objectives. We’re all aware event technology continues to gather pace. By sharing ideas and concepts with our venue partners - from registration processes and stand solutions, to graphics capabilities and floor planning tools - we collaborate to offer the right solutions to our clients. Health and safety continues to change and shape the path of the events world. Satisfying both legislation and venue regulations is of the utmost importance to GES. Through complementing one another’s working practices, we help to make the industry a safer place to work. www.conference-news.co.uk Who?
