A letter aimed at organisers of the many events associated with the Olympics this year makes good advice for event planners of any type. The letter written by the Event Industry Forum is discussed in Event Magazine this month. It has been sent to both event organisers and local authorities involved in the summer sporting events.
The Forum is particularly concerned with the use of unproven and unreliable suppliers. It urges organisers to ‘Check out all your suppliers to ensure they have suitable experience and a track record of working in the events industry… check suppliers are members of a reputable trade body and have been in membership for at least 12 months.’ The importance of risk assessment is also stressed. For the full details of the letter and what you may be able to learn for your own event management career see the Event website http://www.eventmagazine.co.uk/channel/news/article/1115623/Events-Industry-Forum-warns-dodgy-suppliers-ruining-events-during-Olympics/
