How does Odette Organises work?
Odette Organises makes sure that the event meets all expectations. She employs:
- Short lines of communication
- One point of contact
- Overview in all situations
For years Odette has organised from within an extensive network
Odette worked at the conference bureau of Utrecht University for 10 years and has been organising as Odette Organises since 2014. This means that she operates from within an extensive network of specialists and suppliers in the conference and event industry.
A new approach due to COVID-19 – for online success
A lot of work has been postponed because of the lockdown. As a response to this, Odette has developed a way of organizing events online with the help of her clients. She couldn’t have done this without them. To further help her, she followed 2 courses: a level 1 Event Design Certificate Program and a course in Online & Hybrid Event Management. Supported by her clients and these courses she has made the transition to online events. Now more than ever she tailors the content to the online participant.
This means that she still offers a total concept for conferences. Odette used to be project manager and has now become producer of an event. What’s new is that she’s now also working with technical suppliers and moderators. Depending on the circumstances she can use the facilities on location or work from a (mobile) studio. She will do the technical check and broadcast from there.
You can now choose between two types of events:
- hybrid event: part is in-person and part is online interactive.
- online event: participants are online and speakers are online or in-person.
