Events, events and more events!

So far in my internship at networking WA I have been lucky enough to work at a number of events for them. Preparing and working up to the events has been great learning experience as I have gotten to seen what goes into making the end product or the actual event, from beginning to end.

Events Include:

Homeless persons debate – Luckily enough I was able to work this event and network will all attendees. On the day I was part of the setup, greet, and serve team.

Homeless persons walk - Unfortunately I was not able to attend this event but I did do a lot of work leading up to the event. Tasks included looking for entertainment, marketing and advertising.

Giving West NFP event – I did get to work this event. Giving West ran this event and the Networking WA team was apart of the setup and registration table. It was a really amazing event held at Parliament House, which is an amazing venue. I also got to see the Governors wife, Tonya Nicole McCusker, do a speech on Non-for-profits gaining sponsorship, which I found very interesting and a great experience. 

Escape – This Event was a Networking WA event; I was also lucky enough to work on the evening. The event was a VIP networking event held on a Captain Cook Cruise boat. In preparation for the event I was able to help with a lot of the creative set up side, which was really fun. In events there will always be something that will go wrong that is out of your control, and I got to see this happen first hand this event, with one of the entertainments cars breaking down just an hour before the event starts. In the end everything turned out really well and all guest had a wonderful time, and I did too.

Linneys – This was another VIP networking WA event held by Networking WA at Linneys Jewelers in Subiaco. The Parisian themed event was spectacular. I was about to help with some of the event coordination leading up to the event, as well as attend to event as a guest. I was a really fantastic night filled with champagne, canapés, and of course networking.

Chinese investment - At the moment Networking WA are working on preparation for the Chinese Investment event they are holding which I have been helping out on. It will be held in a Couple of weeks. One of the major parts that I have been helping out in is trying to market the event and get more attendees.

All the events I have help out with have been such a great learning experience and i really have enjoyed  the variety.
