October Was a Less Than Typical Month for us
Activate Events • October 28, 2022

October was a less than typical month for us, with a large 1000 guest event in Spain, a pharmaceutical client which required support Down Under, and a two-day event summit which Activate were both sponsoring and attending as participants. In addition to supporting a range of other key events running smoothly thanks to the Activaters in charge!


The Event Organisers Summit 2022 we were keen to support as after covid where relationships jumped online we felt there was a layer of distance and remoteness that we are keen to remove by spending two days immersed in the world of our prospective clients.

Two women are standing next to each other in front of a red phone booth.

Activate attended the event as as both sponsor and key event industry supplier and we used these two days to connect, ask questions and try to truly understand what are the biggest value points we can generate for our clients, what event formats are best received and where is the market appetite and confidence going into 2023.



Monday 17 Oct, started with our sponsored session: “Why Events are a Must for your Personal Brand,” delivered by Ioana Jago (our marketing Activater). This was a popular session with great energy, questions and feedback.


We continued with two intense days of networking and updating our tech knowledge.


Liz (Account Director) and Louisa (Client Relationship Manager) are now keen to follow up on all those conversations and activate all opportunities for our prospects.


A job well done and as Ioana shared in her seminar, we are keen to continue to “do good work and tell people about it”!

5 Reasons Why Mauritius Should Be Your Next Event Destination

By Skye Marshall • January 10, 2025
If you're searching for an event destination that will wow your guests, Mauritius is the place to be. With its stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and world-class facilities, it's fast becoming one of Africa's top spots for events. Picture networking on a sunset catamaran cruise, shmoozing over delicious Creole cuisine, or relaxing in luxury beachfront resorts after a day of productive meetings and activities. I was lucky enough to have spent a week in December experiencing firsthand what Mauritius has to offer, and why Mauritius should be your next event destination. 1. Perfectly Equipped for Business Events and Incentive Travel Mauritius isn’t just a pretty face… it’s the ultimate destination for events, incentives, and all things business-y (with a side of fun, of course!). Getting there is easy with plenty of flights, smooth airport transfers, and top-notch meeting spaces that’ll make you feel like a VIP. Oh, and did I mention the MICE VAT Exemption? Yes, please!  And the weather? Absolute perfection. It’s an all-year-round kind of place with temps that hover between 20°C - 28°C.

IBTM 2024

By Emily Salvage • December 4, 2024
This year I was lucky enough to attend IBTM as part of a group hosted by Mags Shaw from Mags Worldwide . Having been a few years since I last had the chance to attend IBTM, I was excited to network, learn and meet with friends both old and new. The trip started off with an early meet and greet at London Heathrow where we met with Lianne Arkle from All About Flights who had helped organise our travel there and back. After a smooth flight, we landed in sunny Barcelona which was a nice change from the cold temperatures we had left behind in the UK. (Fun fact: the average temperature in Barcelona during November/December is 14°C, which is great for events/groups needing a bit of winter sun!)

Why Oman? An Event Planner's Discovery

By Megan Whitty • November 11, 2024
In October, I had the incredible opportunity to not only attend my first The Meetings Space event, but also to experience it in a country that had always intrigued me – Oman. Often overshadowed by its more well-known neighbours, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Oman is a hidden gem in the Middle East that is definitely worth adding to your travel list.
