For Ribbon Communications I arranged hostess service, delegate badges, ground transportation, and a private dinner with entertainment for an international group of staff and clients, who came to Amsterdam for an ‘in-person’ meeting.
My client was looking for a special venue for this private dinner, because it was the first time after Covid they could meet in person again. Initially, I sourced a venue in the eastern part of Amsterdam, but this one had to close due to unforeseen circumstances. Fortunately, even though it was very busy in September, I managed to find a very good, centrally located venue: Café Americain in the Hard Rock Hotel Amsterdam American in Amsterdam.
We hired the restaurant exclusively for the group. The evening started with a cocktail reception with very special amuse-bouche appetizers (with the company logo printed on edible paper!). Following the reception, an exclusive culinary dinner menu was served by the hospitable waiters. As musical entertainment, the jazz band Trio Born with singer Louise Akkermans performed all night long.
As support during the meeting taking place during the day, I hired the experienced hostess Inge Worm-Roggeveen. She supported my client on-site to make sure everything ran smoothly..
