6 innovative business event concepts in typical venues

Do you want to make your business events more dynamic and stand out from the crowd while meeting your clients' needs? The Simplifier team at Tourisme Laval offers you a brand new range of event concepts. Here aresix meeting and convention venues located in Laval which offer concepts that revisit traditional formulas and focus on the immersive experience.

1. 360 Conference atCabaret de l'Avenir

We invite you to revitalize the conference formula, both for your speaker and your attendees, by focusing on proximity and comfort. The installation of a central stage and the creation of "stands" set up all around the round stage, with different types of seats, will optimize the connection, the proximity and the exchange between the speaker and his audience.

2. Commemorating the history of an organization over time at thePalace Convention Center

We propose creating a journey that allows attendees to relive and/or discover the history of your organization through time. The idea is to offer them a multidisciplinary and interactive experience through gastronomy, history and arts. Thanks to the configuration and setting of the venue, it is possible to stage the event and unveil the organization's story like a work of art that has been built over time. A picture is worth a thousand words, and the goal is not to tell the story of the organization in speeches but rather to make the attendees experience it by appealing to their senses.

3. Country banquet at the Château Royal

The idea behind this concept is to adapt the "potluck" formula to a corporate banquet context. To reinforce the convivial aspect and encourage networking, we suggest inviting attendees to go and get various dishes at identified stations and to make the service themselves at their table.

4. Fun networking cocktail at theHoliday Inn Laval Montreal

We suggest a networking cocktail formula in a hotel setting where two adjacent rooms are available for a two-part event. For example, it could be a conference with a workshop followed by a networking cocktail, where your guests can have fun and experience unique moments in the giant game zone (basketball, tic-tac-toe, etc.). This is a great way to optimize attendees' experience.

5. Immersive Celebration at theSheraton Laval and Convention Centre

Our concept transports your attendees into different worlds by creating a journey made of culinary stations and visual projections. It features three cities of the world, namely Paris, New York and Laval. Images are projected on the screens as immersive backdrops for the different culinary stations, where the dishes are in line with the theme of each featured city. The setting of the room is completed by thematic accessories, such as park benches, a street truck, picnic tables, etc. A real change of scenery.

6. A recognition cocktail that goes beyond perceptions at Théâtre Marcellin-Champagnat

For one evening, we offer your attendees the opportunity to become the actors of their good deeds, successes, and achievements. The goal is to surprise people who are used to sitting in a room to watch a show or attend a presentation. For this, the spaces are redefined, and attendees have access to the stage, which becomes their space. The roles are reversed, as well as the perception of people as to their involvement in the event. This experience is Ideal for reinforcing the feeling of belonging.
