VOE Membership Manager, Michelle Boyt visited one of our newest venues last week - Rhodes Trust, Rhodes House in Oxford.
Presenting a general induction on the consortium, it was a pleasure to meet with six members of the team headed up by Norman Meyer, Head of Conference & Events.
This informative session is provided to all of our members as part of the official on-boarding process to highlight and discuss all benefits available including representation, training, business support, member forums, venue find services and exhibition opportunities.
The conference and event spaces available at Rhodes House certainly exceed any expectations you might have. Recently completing a 3-year restoration and building project has provided totally unique state-of-the-art meeting rooms which sit seamlessly alongside the historical original buildings.
We welcome Rhodes House as our third venue in Oxford alongside Saïd Business School, University of Oxford and OUEV | Oxford University Event Venues and look forward to nurturing a strong and beneficial relationship between them all moving forwards.
