International Event Management
Unstoppable Event Management Service Delivery

In a world where virtual realities and connected devices are all the rage, the concept of hybrid events is becoming increasingly popular. The combined use of online technologies in tandem with the broadcasting of live proceedings like conferences, workshops, or even concerts is creating an air of connectedness amongst audiences from across the globe in a more intuitive and engaging manner. The pandemic of 2020 further expanded on the significance of hybrid events as well, where business and entertainment industries both stand to benefit greatly from this new, budding innovation. Thus, many organisations have begun to employ various new-gen event management service providers and solutions to improve their outreach activities. One particular company, International Event Management (IEM), is an all-woman run organisation that intelligently curates on-site and hybrid events for various use cases with a level of finesse that is highly sought after. With decades of event management experience and an openness to adopt the latest in budding technologies, IEM shows much promise in cultivating the resourcefulness of hybrid events in the modern marketplace.

Founded in 2017, IEM is led by Maike Grimpe as its founder and CEO who, having worked for IBM for 11 years, possesses immense experience organising and executing successful events for any occasion. In addition to her expertise, the two other partners of the company, Sinead Moran and Chris Aguero, bring to the table over 35 years of project and business management know-how. The combination of these three women and the services they offer promises enterprises the launch of memorable events that are effectively centred around strengthening their position in respective marketplaces.

IEM offers the whole package of end-to-end event management services including 24/7 on-site support all the while presenting attendees with various entertaining off-site activities like music, F&B, and artistic events.

We love what we do and that makes us successful

Maike and her team ensure to thoroughly understand the needs of their clients before drafting up the best strategy to deploy. “As a competent event management company, our expertise is anticipating what the client wants and needs. Most clients have a vision of what they want to create, our job is to bring it to life. We have the knowledge, the network, and resources to deliver every detail to execute their perfect event. We bridge the gap between their internal knowledge and the execution of the event delivery,” expresses the CEO.

Fortunately, owing to the level of event management and marketing experience IEM maintains, the company always exceeds the expectations of the market. It leverages the latest technologies including VMotion and, in collaboration with a string of impressive partners like HIPULSE & Nanook and ALL4DIGITAL, a comprehensive virtual and hybrid technological event solution to truly bring those in the far reaches of the planet a little bit closer together in a virtually interactive environment. On a more meticulous level, the company excels at venue sourcing, effective budgeting, negotiating mutually beneficial contracts with hotels and accommodations, and attendee registration management. These solutions and services proffered by IEM promise a successful event for companies in any segment at incredibly affordable rates as well. “We are set up as a small entity, which allows us to be more agile and communicative. When a client reaches out to us, they are directly talking to a decision maker. Events are about connecting people and that is where we start with our clients,” states Maike.

Owing to the pandemic, the world of event management is moving fairly slowly. But IEM, having worked for companies like IBM, WIPRO, VMWARE, Pinterest, Medical Congresses, and exclusive hoteliers internationally over the past four years, still manages to create an energetic atmosphere. Kicking the notion of “It’s a man’s world” out the window, the women of IEM are gearing up to revolutionise the world of event management with the power of modern technology, international partnerships, and corporate experience. “We have the perfect mix of passion, innovation, and emotion to help understand each client better and deliver the best outcome,” concludes Maike.
