Last weekend, we celebrated the birthday of our senior event planner, Eliza.

Sadly, a few key people were missing, but we still used the opportunity to get a team photo!

Happy birthday again, Eliza, from everyone at Alterniq Events.

Your first point of contact when you enquire with us will be with a member of our client relationship team. They will conduct a consultation call to understand your requirements fully and answer any questions you may have. Afterward, they will collaborate with our team to create a tailored proposal for your event, showcasing our solutions.

Even after the event planning process begins and transitions to our event planning department, they will maintain regular communication with you. This ensures we continue to meet your expectations at every stage.

Many of our client relationships are built on the exceptional service this department provides and the lasting connections they foster.

Nothing beats meeting people face-to-face.

We’re designed to spend physical time together - after all, we're social creatures!

While technology has broadened communication options, online meetings and presentations often miss out on nuances like tone of voice, body language, and that elusive X factor that only in-person interactions can provide. No matter how advanced a video meeting is, it can’t fully replicate the experience of being there with someone.

That’s why, when we're hired by a client to stage such an event, we prioritise delivering the right solution to maximise the benefits of an in-person meeting or presentation. From selecting the perfect venue and setting up the right lighting and AV equipment to handling branding, catering, and beverages—every detail contributes to the success of your event. Capturing and holding the group’s attention involves more than just the speaker; it’s about every element working together.

If you're planning a presentation, big or small, reach out to our team. We’ll work closely with you to create the ideal solution.

Meet our client relationship duo!

If you've partnered with us in the past, chances are you've been in contact with either Sapphire or Katherine.

From your initial enquiry through to the event itself and beyond, they play a crucial role in our team, dedicated to maintaining the high standards of customer service that underpin our business.

As the primary points of contact, their exceptional communication skills and warm personalities help forge strong bonds with clients, ensuring that what we deliver aligns perfectly with their vision and requirements.

Our enduring client relationships are a testament to the quality of their service and the care they continue to provide long after the events are over.

Our light buffet menu is ideal for daytime events and is a popular choice for meetings and small gatherings that we organise on behalf of our clients. Incredibly tasty with a wide range of options for you to select from pre-event, we personalise the menu to your group's requirements.

As we approach the beginning of the new financial year, many tasked with organising events within companies are eagerly awaiting updates on their budgets for the year ahead. While they may have a clear vision of the events they wish to organise, obtaining approval from their CFO or financial department can prove to be challenging.

We are strong advocates for events, not just because it's our area of expertise, but because of the tangible rewards they offer our clients. We emphasise to our clients the importance of prioritising staff and client entertainment and events as integral components of their budget planning. These events shouldn't be viewed as mere luxuries but as essential investments with measurable outcomes.

Hosting events for both staff and clients yields multiple benefits, such as boosting staff morale, fostering collaboration, enhancing skill-building, nurturing camaraderie, and strengthening client relationships. Furthermore, these events offer invaluable networking opportunities, cementing existing connections, and attracting new business prospects.

By delivering memorable experiences for internal and external stakeholders, businesses can position themselves as industry leaders and stand out as exceptional places to work and do business with. Allocating resources to staff and client entertainment and events should therefore be seen as a strategic decision that yields significant returns in terms of employee satisfaction, client retention, and overall business success, both in the short and long term.

It really is a win-win situation.

We have a great team here at alterniq events, some of whom are featured in this photo.

We've cultivated a strong culture centered on supporting, respecting, and collaborating with each other. These values foster strong bonds among all our employees.

On International Women's Day, we'd like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our female employees, who have played a crucial role in establishing our culture and are deeply committed to maintaining the high standards we pride ourselves on. They lead by example and serve as excellent role models.

We also take this opportunity to wish everyone a fantastic International Women's Day!

We're soon to launch our new catering menus, and we couldn't be more thrilled. Food plays a crucial role in any event, and we take great pride in offering a diverse range of catering options to our corporate clients.

Our experienced event team will collaborate closely with you to meticulously plan a bespoke menu tailored to your preferences. Whether it's accommodating individual needs, incorporating seasonal themes, or selecting from our range of casual dining or three-course seated dinner options, we ensure that every dish is created using responsibly sourced, high-quality ingredients.

Here are a few pictures from last year's catering options.

In an era where colleagues spend less time together due to hybrid or fully remote work setups, the importance of in-person events cannot be overstated.

Whether it's for your staff, clients, or a mix of both, there's no better way to build connections and forge relationships than through face-to-face interactions. It's these moments that truly strengthen the bonds within a company and forge new relationships.

Prioritise your events this year and get in touch to see how we can help.

As we approach the end of our final working week in 2023, I wanted to take a moment to express my immense pride and gratitude for our incredible team. This year has been another great one for our business, and we wouldn't have achieved it without the dedication of everyone involved. It's their unwavering effort and commitment to upholding the high standards we pride ourselves upon that has propelled our business forward.

This year held significant milestones. Not only did we mark our 10th anniversary, a remarkable achievement in itself—statistics show that 65% of businesses fail within their first ten years—but it was also a year of personal joy as I tied the knot. Celebrating this special occasion with the entire team, including my wife Sapphire, who's also part of the business, was truly exceptional. In fact, with the exception of my business partners, the majority of the team is present in this photo.

I'm excited about what the future holds for both our team and our business. We look forward to the development and growth that lies ahead.

And, as we look forward to the coming year, we can't wait to celebrate at our eagerly awaited company anniversary party!

We're delighted to share an insightful article that highlights the importance of apprenticeships in the events industry. Our founder, Matthew, provides his perspective on why we prioritise apprenticeships and the benefits they bring to our business.

We take immense pride in our commitment to apprenticeships, and we're thrilled to showcase success stories like Eliza.

Eliza skillfully project manages client events and leads a team of event coordinators, including our newest apprentice, Phoebe.

The sector needs to stop waiting for people to "fall into events" - and start taking advantage of the opportunities provided by event apprenticeships.
