We held our first Assist Travel conference and exhibition on Friday 25th September at the Hilton Bankside and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the day. The hotel itself was not open to guests and you could literally smell the fresh paint in the conference space. I hope those that came along enjoyed it too.

Instead of traveling to a meeting, simply hold a video conference online. This will eliminate the emissions from the fuel used to travel. It will save the company travel expenses and save employees time as well. If not, consider switching to a more eco-conscious supplier. Check Your Supply Chain.

Did I know the difference between a board room or conference room set and a classroom set? I found them to be valuable assets not only because of their knowledge and well-established relationships with suppliers but their buying power as well. Did I think of this as meeting planning? I think you get the idea.

Another crucial task is meeting organisation, including finding a venue, arranging refreshments and VC-conferences. I also organise his business travel. Since my boss travels a lot, I take care of his travel expenses and supplier invoices. I make sure that the whole day flows well.

This is often the way with us PAs – we have banks of knowledge which sometimes we only need to use once – a big office move, a one-off international conference. Insiders.com – a website where PAs from anywhere can search the database to find a supplier suggested by another PA, with their reason for recommending and relevant contact info etc.

So I thought I would ask William the Curator of Tech Fest a conference and event technology showcase which takes place at ExCeL on the 19th June to explain how five very different types of event technology can help those assistants who are involved in events stay on top of their events. Live Streaming and Recording. Twitter Walls.

It is a huge exhibition and conference for the events industry. I also attend a lot of events for my work itself particularly when I am asked to source venues and meet new suppliers. Last week I attended EIBTM in Barcelona. This means that I am not always in the office. All of which are relevant to our industry too!

If you request to attend a Training Day and they say that time away from the office is the main issue, then you need to make the conference seem as undisruptive as possible. Internal & External Training: The first external conference that I ever attended was Square Meal Venues and Events. The Assist Conference 2017.

I thought it would be interesting to insert here my notes from the Software Luminaries Panel at TiEcon 2006, a Silicon Valley, California Entrepreneurial Conference I attended last weekend. I can do mundane administrative work during travel time. For me that means i am no longer tied to the desk for hours at a time.

They coordinate schedules, handle employee issues, negotiate with suppliers and work hard to ensure everyone gets along within the company culture. There are many ways to achieve this, including reading management literature, attending seminars, company events or conferences, keeping up-to-date with technology and taking courses.
