Step by step to the perfect conference

Let's start with the basics first. What is actually meant by the term conference? Conferences are usually held on a current topic that is viewed from different perspectives. Events aimed at companies often have a teaching character and offer the opportunity to Networking, while academic conferences exchange and discuss a specific topic should promote. And what is the difference between a conference and a congress? A meeting lasts, like as the name suggests, for one day, while a congress usually takes place over several days and tends to do so appeals to a larger audience.

Running of the event


  1. The opening by a keynote speaker serves as an introduction and orientation aid for the rest of the program.

  2. Various lectures and presentations deepen the topic.

  3. The final panel discussion offers the opportunity to exchange new knowledge.

  4. Less central, but no less important the supporting program!

The supporting program crowns the event

One of the most important goals when planning a conference is a varied program! Live music gives every event moments that will be remembered. Authentic music not only ensures a special one atmosphere, but also ensures unique encounters. The uses for live music are at a conference varied. Therefore, we present various ideas and concepts here:

Live music as part of the program during the conference

  • 1) Music flash mob for trade fair
  • 2) Musician as a walking act
  • 3) Music as product presentation

Live music as a highlight of the evening program

  • 1) Champagne reception with live music
  • 2) dinner music
  • 3) Partyband
