There is no doubt, with 2012 looming and tickets now on sale, the biggest corporate hospitality event the UK has ever seen is about to explode!
Corporate hospitality is big business. A crucial tool for getting new clients and keeping old ones, it is the surefire way to ensure business runs smoothly and that business relationships continue to develop well over time.
Large corporate companies have huge budgets for entertaining their clients, and taking them to the words biggest sporting stage is just about the best corporate hospitality deal going.
Of course though, there are many other elements to corporate hospitality - the transport, the music, the celebrity guests and the accommodation, but lets not forget the finest food and drink too.
Corporate hospitality catering companies, particularly outside caterers are gearing themselves up for the busiest few weeks they have ever seen during Olympic fortnight. Tasked with creating incredible talking point food for the business world's big hitters, it is their job to dream up new and innovative menus, serving styles and presentation methods.
Some of the best corporate hospitality caterers, such as Create, Rocket or "rhubarb" have entire event planning departments dedicated to corporate business and these departments are only set to get bigger and busier as 2012 approaches.
Top projected trends for corporate hospitality and outside catering as the Olympics get closer are international in flavour - hawkers market style eating, with burrito bars, sushi stalls and oyster boys & girls are all hot ideas for corporate events. For more formal gourmet dinners, sharing plates and tapas style starters are a great way of bringing new trends to old style tables. Miniature dishes mean everyone gets a taste of every dessert for example - perfect for impressing those clients.
And of course budgets are that little bit larger for the Olympic period, so the corporate event industry will be pushing the boat out that little bit more!
If you want perfectionism and professionalism, if you want to impress your clients with attention to every little detail, then you need to use the very best caterers and corporate event companies to reflect and mirror your company's business image and reputation.
The very best companies can make a corporate event a real theatrical production, with the best glasses and china, the most professional uniformed and corporate logo-ed staff, and of course the best, freshest and most seasonal food, served in the most stunning ways.
And corporate hospitality events over the Olympic period will take place in some of the most amazing venues too, such as The Royal Courts of Justice, The Saatchi Gallery, The Natural History Museum or The Royal Palaces. And what about all the new venues that are appearing specifically for the Olympics - some temporary installations, some more permanent stadiums with private viewing boxes for the very best corporate customers. All perfect for impressing, and therefore perfect for corporate hospitality.
