What success looks like

By the end of your internship, you won’t just have “helped with events.”

You’ll have coordinated real projects, welcomed clients, supported pitches, contacted prospects, developed partnerships, managed suppliers and helped convert opportunities into business.

You’ll understand both sides of the event industry: how to create a great experience and how to turn that experience into a growing business.

• Hands-on experience organising real corporate events.

• Exposure to the complete journey from lead → proposal → event → follow-up.

• Experience in both event management and business development.

• Direct contact with clients, agencies, suppliers, partners and business communities.

• The opportunity to participate in sales meetings, pitches and site visits.

• Experience preparing commercial proposals and developing new opportunities.

• Exposure to catering, AV, production and venue operations.

• Real responsibility and ownership over your projects.

• The opportunity to develop your own event and business ideas.

• An entrepreneurial environment where things move quickly and good ideas can become real projects.
