Creating Space for Everyone - Diversity and Inclusion
Diversity is a broad topic, particularly within the workplace, it is what makes us different from one another. Whether it be gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, how you choose to identify, socio-economic background, abilities, beliefs, skills, the list goes on.

I feel passionate about shining a light on best practice to inspire other organisations and hopefully attract talented and…

With the UK government recently announcing their proposed roadmap for the easing of lockdown, companies are expected to rush to organise Hybrid Events. With Hybrid Events in 2021, businesses can aim to combine the benefits of having a virtual audience alongside a much smaller live audience.

When planning a Virtual Event, it is always difficult to determine the best ways to approach each session’s content. With smaller-sized events, it is best to try and keep the intimate experiences participants get from face-to-face interaction, and with larger events, such as global conferences, it is vital to maintain high engagement from the audience.

From March last year, all event types, from sports and live music to conferences and trade shows, were either postponed or cancelled indefinitely. With revenue streams in most industries taking a huge hit, cost-cutting practices have become even more of an…
