Apex Hotels has partnered with local digital companies to bring improved conferencing and event services to its customers.
Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa are working with DLR Media, whilst Apex City of Bath Hotel are working alongside Genero Group to provide the new digital business solutions.
The new technology will allow users to network, break-out into teams and take part in live tours. Moreover, the conferences can be recorded for those unable to attend in real time.
Genero Group will also set up meetings online, which will allow users to participate from their office or home.
The solutions will be available whilst social distancing measures are still in place and it will be a permanent upgrade to the C&E offer available at Apex Hotels.
Phil Bailey, sales director, Group MICE, said: “At Apex we are aware that there is now a need for new ways for our clients to be able to continue to hold conferences, business meetings, and networking events. Our aim is to provide that solution whilst working with local businesses who will be on-hand to fit and set up all the equipment needed for each meeting, and our clients will be able to get their knowledge and expertise first-hand from each company.
“This allows us to accept bookings for conferences of 400+ delegates which normally we wouldn’t be able to accommodate. This is not a replacement of our current conference offering, as always we are working on ways in which we can enhance our services and give our clients more options.”
Bailey added: “The future of C&E is a hot topic in the industry right now and we are working on how we can offer these services across our portfolio of hotels and are currently in talks with technology companies in London and Edinburgh too to make this a reality.”
