Conference Promotion
At
Harding Consultants we are able to manage the organisation and design
of an appropriate conference logo, all promotional material (including
the website) as well as the conference programme and handbook. In
conjunction with the organising committee we can co-ordinate the
key-note speaker, motivators, MC etc. Following your direction we can
construct a programme that is both workable and able to deliver
outcomes for all attendees ie: delegates and speakers, as well as
sponsors and exhibitors.
We have a unique name badge system,
which was originally a concept created by our company, and now mimicked
at other conferences. This name badge also incorporates a mini version
of the programme, at the back of the name badge, which gives a
breakdown of each day. A sample can be provided if the committee are
interested.
We also have another unique concept in our
Conference Handbook, that incorporates everything a delegate would wish
to know at conference, from general information, exhibitor/sponsor
information; programme; detailed breakdown of each presenter, including
topic, title and abstract; delegate list and delegate survey. Every
conference we do rave reviews are received on the concept of this
book. Once again a sample can be provided for review, if the committee
are interested.

Harding Consultants will take responsibility for all follow-up contact with all speakers and presenters.
Once the speakers have been identified we will then handle all the following aspects
• Organise necessary travel arrangements
