Case Study: Clearing The Hurdles (Event Logistics)
Problem
The Product Development team at a multinational technology conglomerate was preparing to host their annual conference of Research & Development groups from around the world. Though the team had identified an industry thought leader to deliver the keynote speech, they needed assistance to manage the necessary event logistics and procurement processes in time for the conference.
At prior events, obtaining presenter agreements, coordinating travel, and disbursing payments were a cumbersome and lengthy ordeal, and presenters had complained about payment delays. The team needed a solution to make this process run smoother for all parties involved.
Critical Issues
Event Logistics Ease of Payment Contract Negotiation
The Solution
The customer had previously used Maven to source thought leaders for engagements with ease, and knew they could rely on Maven to deliver the same professionalism for the upcoming event. The team engaged Maven to manage the logistics of their keynote speaker, including handling all of the necessary paperwork and travel arrangements. Meanwhile, the team was able to focus on other priorities and host a successful conference.
“When we are hosting these all-hands conferences, the last thing I want to deal with is delays in payments and procurement. Maven made my life so much easier!” – VP Global Product
