BABs Episode 7 Merryn Scholz, K.I.T. Group : BERLIN LOVES YOU!

In this episode we return to the core values of BABs and talk to the fabulous Merryn Scholz, General Manager of K.I.T. Group in Berlin – one of Europe’s largest PCOs – about the role she recently played in organizing the “Freedom Dinner” for 3,000 guests on the recently closed Berlin Tegel airfield, as well as talking a little about how congress business is now developing looking to 2022 as confidence in events starts to return.

Listen in and learn how Merryn and her team, supported by Messe Berlin and their event suppliers, were asked to play a game of pure brinkmanship whilst organizing the dinner.  They were up against very tight deadlines, but could not even be sure until the last minute how many guests they were actually allowed to invite!! (which, as most of you know, is pretty crucial to being able to organize the event properly!)

Learn too as how Merryn and her team were faced with the challenge of implementing an outdoor dinner concept on a recently closed airfield, devoid of any infrastructure to speak of and completely at the mercy of wind and weather !

Add to that, the central theme of the event was laying out the tables over an 800 metre stretch of runway to spell out exactly the phrase “BERLIN LOVES YOU” – even though up until the 12th hour they were not even sure how many guests would fill the tables!

Did it work against the odds? Did the weather gods shine down on Merryn and her Team?

Listen in and find out!

Finally, the future for congresses and RFPs gets discussed and Merryn gives her frank take on it all….

One not to miss!!
