Finding A Perfect Venue For Your Company Event

By Sara Reighard


If you are the person tasked with the challenge of creating a memorable and successful corporate event, this can be a difficult job. Not only do you face the challenge of general planning and preparation, you have to get people excited about the prospect and that can be half the battle. If you want to entice co-workers or clients to an event, selecting a great venue can be the key. While it's hard to get excited about a basic hotel conference room, there are plenty of interesting and more unique options throughout New York.

One option would be to rent an amazing Manhattan loft apartment, and Home Studios Inc. has two options. One offers 3,000 square feet of space and can accommodate about 100 people, and the second has more than 4,000 square feet and can hold about 175 people for a sit-down event. Both lofts feature plenty of natural light and polished hardwood floors and many other beautiful decorative features, such as an exposed brick wall or rustic, renovated barn doors.

Each loft has a large main area, as well as bathrooms and private rooms that can be used as offices or for smaller conferences. Full, gourmet kitchens are included in both lofts, which can be used by your staff or caterers. Of course, wireless internet is available in both lofts and you also have use of a dedicated phone line. These lofts often are used as corporate party venues, as fundraiser venues, product launch venues and as studio space for photo shoots and video shoots. You can bring in whatever equipment or furnishings you need via the freight elevator, and there is a passenger elevator for your guests.

Museums and art galleries are another fun option for a company event, especially a special party or holiday gathering. These also can be used as a product launch venue or even a fundraiser venue. This can encourage socialization as people look at the art or artifacts and make comments on various pieces of art. You will find that there are several Manhattan galleries and a few local museums that rent out for different types of corporate events.

You could also opt for something unique such as a botanical garden or perhaps book an evening event on a boat. A restaurant can be a good option for a smaller, sit-down event. Simply select a restaurant that offers something unique such as wine tastings or perhaps a tapas bar. Nightclubs also can be rented out for special events, and this might be a fun idea for a company party or informal event.

Selecting a great venue definitely can entice your guests and once they arrive, you want to keep them happy and interested in your presentation. Keeping them happy includes feeding them well, whether you are hosting a breakfast meeting, a business lunch or an evening event. Think carefully about food options and select items that really make an impression. For example, at a breakfast event hire a catering staff to make made-to-order omelets and espresso drinks. If it's lunch, offer a wide assortment of sandwiches, salads and many beverages, rather than a plain boxed lunch.
