Hi, my name's Jackie Gavin and I'm here with some tips and tricks about how to make the most of your very first PCOA conference. So if you're a newcomer to the industry or a newcomer to the conference, hopefully this will help you on this Sunday. They are pre registered sessions, so make sure you have pre registered and I would honestly recommend Rookie to Rockstar. It'll be a great one to kick off the conference for you. After that, I would maybe recommend the right way even in the world of. AI, it's good to understand how to write professionally for a tender or a proposal. Now there's plenty of plenaries and keynotes and everyone will be together then. But it's those concurrent sessions you need to have a little bit of a think about. So on the Monday, a great one to go to will be perfecting the art of conferencing networking. That'll be a really good way to shape the rest of your conference. Also on the Monday is everything you've wanted to know about AV and there is a lot to learn. So I recommend that if that's involved with your work and then on the Tuesday there's been comfortable with the uncomfortable, which will be really interesting one, have a look at the program to get some more details on that. And then also I choose elevate your hotel partnerships. If you're a in house meeting manager or a PCO or you're working for one and you're newer to the industry, these can be really helpful sessions. So we've got more than 20 sessions over three days. Have a look at the program. If you need any further advice reach out to me on LinkedIn, but I really look forward to seeing you at the Star in Brisbane. Take care.

What is the most popular day of the week for holding business events? 📊 Our analysis has shown that by far the most business events take place on Thursdays. You can use this information to your advantage in two different ways: 1. you also schedule your business events on Thursdays, because this is a common day to attend an event. 2. you choose a day on which fewer events take place and thus benefit from fewer competing events. Which strategy makes sense from your point of view? #eventmanagement #eventplanner #businessevents Follow our company page Oniva Ltd. for more event insights 🔍📅
