Conference Management Print E-mail

A&M specializes in management of conferences, conventions, exhibits, seminars, workshops, events, trade shows and business meetings. As a full service event planning company, A&M will take care of all aspects of your conference. From complete conference management or supportive management. 

Starting with our initial consultation we work together with our clients during the planning phase to review the project budget, event concepts, event location, staff requirements, catering, special live entertainment requests and production & design timeline. Our next steps include executing the development and design stages in which the physical aspects of the event begin to take form.

Prior to finalization, we continuously communicate with our clients to make any final changes and revisions. Finally we book the conference location, prepare logistics and information to vendors and make sure the conference becomes successful for all parties involved.
