Details:
Very low budget-like $1500 (food not necessary)

We'd likely do either open bar for an hour/drink tickets and then cash bar for remainder.

I'm looking for venues in NY and LA that have space for a half or full day conference for 200-250 people with room for breakouts and production space.

Hi guys! My team has an event coming up in February in Scottsdale, Arizona. We are looking to host a fireside chat with about 50-75 ppl with drinks and passed apps prior to the talk. Can you recommend any venues in the area that could accommodate?
Not a "new" venue, but it is definitely a venue that pleasantly surprised me last week- I hosted a group of 50 people for a lunch & learn + cocktail reception in Chicago at Spin, and we had a WONDERFUL experience. I usually select more traditional event spaces like hotels for this style of corporate event, but everything from the food quality to the existing furniture around the space and the service pre and during was 10/10. I primarily chose this venue because of the location, but I also wanted to host a fun activity after the meeting to keep attendees around for my sales team. Spin was perfect on all fronts! The company I work for is high-growth SAAS, so the edgy design was totally fine for us. I've attached a few of my pictures from the event here.

What: New Jersey-East Asia Economic Mission
Where: Tokyo, Hiroshima, Seoul, Taipei, Hsinchu
When: October 13-22, 2023
Who: 60+ delegates
What went well:
⢠The delegates were thrilled to go on New Jerseyās most expansive economic mission ever. 40+ MOUs, partnerships, and important contracts were signed, including a drivers license reciprocity agreement with NJ and the Korean National Police association.
⢠Positive press all around. We got lots of write-ups in local media. Having a reporter on the ground with us helped.
⢠Governor Murphy was able to meet with the head of state in every country - not something all Govs get to do. He even brought a guitar signed by Bon Jovi as a gift for a music-loving high-ranking individual.
⢠Overall, I just canāt believe I successfully planned logistics, managed 90 meetings/sessions/events, and moved 60+ people, including the Gov, his family, and their security, across so many countries/cities with no major issues. Definitely my biggest accomplishment ever.
For next time:
⢠My events team was way too small (ie, it was a one-woman show of just me) and I lost not only an extraordinary amount of sleep but my mind a few times too. Iām advocating for an event coordinator to be added to my team now.
⢠Hoping for a longer lead planning time for the next economic mission.
⢠Still learning to navigate the world of politics/politicians. Personalities, rules, and processes much different than Iām used to.
⢠Need to buy comfortable shoes. My plantar fasciitis was really on fire this whole time with the literal running around we had to do. In the past, I could wear sneakers but with this crowd I had to be in dress shoes all the time. My Naturalizer loafers did not deliver on the promised support. Time to buy good insoles!
Happy Friday Everyone! I have two asks on this Friday evening. 1- Have any of you planned a meeting at an all-inclusive resort, and particularly one in Mexico or the Caribbean?

Thank you! Enjoy your weekend.
