The Conference Iceberg

 

The DIY Trap…

Organising a conference might look simple on the surface:

  • A venue
  • A few speakers
  • A tech-savvy team

But beneath that polished tip lies a mass of hidden risks — the kind that can quietly unravel your event and damage your reputation.

 

🌊 Above the Waterline

What most companies focus on:

  • Booking the venue
  • Sending invites
  • Sorting a running order
  • Hiring a technician

It feels manageable. It feels like something you can do in-house.

 

🧊 Below the Surface, chaotic risks are lurking beneath…

What you don’t see — until it’s too late:

  • 📺 A screen too small for the room
  • 🏚️ Furniture that looks tired and tatty
  • 🎛️ AV that’s cheap and unreliable
  • 🏢 A venue that looked great online but can’t handle your tech
  • 🍽️ Catering that misses the mark for your audience
  • 📉 A schedule that collapses under its own weight
  • 🚶 Queuing, confusion and lack of communication
  • 👥 Venue staff you’ve liaised with, nowhere to be seen on the day

 

These aren’t minor hiccups. They are the cracks that can sink the ship.

 

🛟 Eventscape & Clarke AV pre-empt problems before they surface.

💡 The Real Question

It’s not:

“Can we do it ourselves?”

It’s:

“What’s the cost if we get it wrong?”
