I have been fortunate enough to attend a few informal face-to-face events recently launching new offices, a new product and a new service. Such things were commonplace before the pandemic as they are a very effective way of producing business opportunities.
However, it would appear that we may have forgotten why we hold such events.

This enables the hosts to ensure they spend time with the right people and the guests to know who is there representing the hosts.
This used to be standard practice when informal face-to-face events were the norm but I fear best practice has been forgotten as a result of being in the doldrums of the pandemic and being compelled to use video for ‘events’.
