SEMINAR ROOM IN THE NORTH OF FRANCE: WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE?

Organizing a corporate seminar in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region is a winning formula for successfully tackling a new corporate milestone. Lille Grand Palais puts all the professionalism of its teams at your service for an efficient and successful event organization.

FOR WHAT TYPES OF SEMINARS SHOULD YOU HIRE A HALL IN THE NORTH OF FRANCE?

The type of venue you look for to organize a seminar in
Hauts-de-France, for example in Lille, depends on the type of seminar you are planning.

THE TRAINING SEMINAR

It revolves around staff training, which may involve a new tool, new standards or other legislation.
This type of event requires a fairly large, well-equipped audiovisual room, with a good sound system, overhead projectors, videoconferencing screens and a wifi connection, preferably high-speed. Renting a hall with catering for coffee and lunch breaks considerably eases the organizational burden.

INTEGRATION SEMINAR

It often lasts several days, and can also be an integration trip. The aim is to welcome one or more new employees, helping them to settle in more quickly. It also serves to unify the working atmosphere and culture.
Rather playful, this type of seminar is organized in a large enough space, preferably modular, to offer participants a variety of activities. The chosen venue should include catering and hotel services, if the event is spread over several days.

MANAGEMENT SEMINAR

It is aimed at company managers to promote new methods. Involving experts, they are designed to help them acquire new skills, and essentially revolve around work sessions. A few team-building activities are also organized to lighten the mood.
The site for this type of seminar should combine a conference room for speakers and meeting rooms. High-tech
high-tech audiovisual equipment is highly recommended. Any prestigious venue (historic sites such as manor houses or abbeys), offering reception, accommodation and catering services, is ideally suited to this type of seminar.

Training seminars: It’s often a question of offering training to existing employees. This may involve training on new regulations or protocols, for example. The introduction of new work tools can also give rise to a training seminar, to train teams in their use.

The integration seminar: The seminar can take place as soon as one or more employees arrive. The integration seminar is in fact a team-building event, designed to strengthen cohesion and team spirit among employees. For greater conviviality, a seminar organized over several days is preferable. It’s also for this reason that an integration seminar does not include a business meeting, to facilitate the creation of social bonds. It does, however, include a welcome cocktail on the first evening, often followed by a presentation of the company.
