Your conference, taken care of down to the last detail

Organising a conference isn’t your everyday task. It requires dedication, creativity and attention to detail. It might feel overwhelming at first – especially when you want to make an impact and truly inspire your audience. But you don’t have to do it alone.

With the expert guidance of the Meetings & Events planners at Landgoed de Horst, you’re assured of a well-run, polished event. From concept to execution, we think along with you, so you can focus on what truly matters: your message, your guests, and creating an unforgettable experience.

7 tips for a successful conference

1. Choose the right venue
A good venue forms the foundation of your event. Choose a place that offers peace and space, with modern facilities such as a stage, AV support and comfortable seating. Somewhere guests feel welcome and focused.

2. Provide a clear schedule
A well-planned programme brings structure. Communicate the day’s outline clearly so participants know what to expect – allowing them to fully engage with your content.

3. Capture attention with inspiring speakers
Renowned speakers add value and prestige. They can inspire, surprise and connect through their stories.

4. Promote your conference
Use platforms like LinkedIn and Facebook to increase visibility. Flyers, newsletters and industry publications help you reach the right audience.

5. Opt for a unique environment
A nature-based venue like Landgoed de Horst offers more than just a room – think fresh air, birdsong and space to breathe. For multi-day events, on-site hotel rooms ensure rest and informal encounters.

6. Create opportunities to connect
Beyond plenary sessions, networking and informal activities are key. Let guests enjoy a drink on the rooftop terrace or a walk in the woods – inspiration often strikes outside the walls.

7. Close with care
The ending matters too. A personal thank-you or short evaluation ensures guests feel seen and heard. Their feedback helps you improve for next time.
