Enlivening Event Engagement

Depending on the purpose of the event, participants would benefit from a venue that meets their needs. This could be a movie theater, which takes all of the participants’ attention by keeping them entertained, a quiet restaurant that allows the participants to have a conversation, or even a virtual space, such as a discussion board or a multi-player video game. In the coming weeks, we’ll discuss ways to determine what might be the best venues for an event, how to find and book venues, and additional considerations, such as potential profit streams, health & safety, and sustainability.

Real world events usually require people in order to make them worthwhile. Otherwise, how would we know whether a tree falling in a catering hall makes a sound if nobody is there to hear it? We, therefore, need to consider several high level procedures:

• Inform the right number of targeted people about the upcoming event
• Get certain people to complete certain tasks in preparation for the event
• Gauge chatter leading up to the event
• Ensure that people actually attend in the event
• Track how people felt about all of the aspects of the event

Each of these procedures can be broken up into more detailed categories of procedures that can be executed in a variety of ways. We will dive into each of these procedures in the coming weeks.

Hello World! Welcome to Enlivening Event Engagement, a blog dedicated to all things related to events and the people that make them worthwhile. Here we will discuss the components that might make up an event, the people that host and participate in the event, and the venue where the event might take place. All of this will take the process of event management and tie it into the digital realm.

Life is a series of events; lets enjoy the journey together!
