LIVE is the Real Deal
Paul Stephen
Connecting you to local and creative DMCs in 130+ countries, for memorable Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Events and Luxury Group Travel.
As live events start to come to life I have been following the debate on LIVE vs virtual in the future. But this is my take:
"There is nothing like attending your company conference live. You truly feel part of your brand. Focussed attendance from start to finish. Those moments connecting with colleagues, getting goosebumps on your neck as you listen to the motivational speaker just metres away from you and you feel the energy in the room. Your company delivers its message with a great big boom?? - Lighting, sound, visual. At the end of the day, as you clink glasses?? with colleagues at sunset, building relationships, as you breathe in the air of the ocean at your conference retreat. Dinner awaits you with laughter around the table. A welcome gift in your room and a chocolate?? on your pillow makes you realise that it's the small things that count and that you are blessed to be at a live event again.?? Sitting at your computer, mixing your own cocktail from a delivered cardboard box, trying to feel excited, sometimes thoughts drifting away to things to do in the house??..... You decide but virtual is a means to an end but live is the REAL DEAL??
And the bonus is the impact of indirectly supporting the families & staff of my network of DMC's at 1 DMC World & millions of porters, chefs, game rangers, bus drivers, waiters, event staff, cleaners, guides, DJ's, artists, entertainers, sound & stage technicians and the list goes on and on.
Let's get together as much as we can - Again and again!
