Wyboston Lakes Resort has announced plans to spend over £3m on its premium conference venue, including £500,000 on upgrading the IT network, bringing the total investment over the last few years to £10m
The venue, which is the UK’s largest privately owned single site conference and leisure venue, is located on 380 acres between Cambridge and Milton Keynes.
The investment is hoped to bring added flexibility, outdoor space, upgraded meeting areas, including the latest tech and a state of the art conference room large enough to host events for up to 300 delegates.
Steve Jones, operations director at Wyboston Lakes comments: “The investment into our premium conference venue signifies our long-term plans for this venue by investing in it to give us a competitive advantage and preparing it for the next 10 years of business. In the coming decade we must appeal to the millennial and Gen Y market to ensure we remain competitive and keep winning business.
“These new bookers and delegates seek out unique experiences, put an emphasis on technology, look for quality and memorable touches as well as local accents such as regional dishes on the menus and the provenance of the food being clearly identifiable. These elements have been included within the overall design and are a key requirement for us as we roll out this project.”
