Why Tech Companies Choose Convene for Their Most Important Events
Posted February 9, 2024 By Paraic McLeanPlanning a corporate event or conference always involves a myriad of logistics, from finding the perfect space that can accommodate your attendees; organizing accommodation for those who are traveling in for the event; and arguably the most important part - ensuring that those in attendance have a positive experience. Add in the fact that tech companies, who have become known for providing employees with exceptional perks at work, are expected to plan events with the same types of benefits for their attendees.
Convene has a network of nearly 40 event and conference venues that have become the "go-to" for tech industry planners looking to give their attendees a memorable and productive event - Here's why.
High-Quality Meals to Energize & Impress Attendees
At Convene, our team of in-house executive chefs focus on creating healthy and nourishing meals that are tasty and fuel your attendees with energy to get them through any afternoon slump. Our seasonal menus have left lasting impressions on tech industry giants such as Google, AWS, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Vee Technologies recently described our food as "better than most 5-star restaurants." High quality food produces high quality results.

A Partner, Not Just a Place
Convene serves as a partner, not just a place, for meeting and event planners. When on-site at Convene, clients and guests will enjoy:
- A dedicated hospitality team to manage logistics and details
- On-site catering with nourishing menus prepared by an executive-chef-led culinary team
- A white box space that allows for considerable branding opportunities
- In-room A/V technology supported by a dedicated on-site team
- Unlimited snacks and beverages available throughout the day
The “Nourish” stations available throughout the space, which are stocked with unlimited snacks and beverages, are similar to what many companies now have in their own office spaces, and it can help attendees feel instantly at home.

A Blank Canvas for Branding Opportunities
Whether a planner has a budget to impress, or is working with more limited funds, Convene can support event design and branding. While every Convene space is already outfitted with furnishings to make the space feel like “home,” our in-house event production team can support with additional design and branding activations as needed.
During a recent event at Convene 1201 Wilson Blvd, Google seized the opportunity to personalize the space and had their branding displayed throughout the venue.
“Having the entire space to make our own really worked well for our event and how we had it designed.”
