Safe Meetings And Events

SEATTLE, Aug. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Audio Visual Management Solutions (AVMS), on-site hotel and staging audiovisual partner, announced the creation of a website, SafeMeetingsAndEvents.com, to review all policies and procedures for returning to meeting safely and creating better guest experiences. The hospitality AV veterans followed Event Safety Alliance and CDC guidelines to develop innovative ways to handle gathering in a safe, organized and inventive way. This includes pre-event renderings to know what your meeting will look like and create a sense of flow in the meeting space, cleaning policies, team member training, virtual and hybrid events and additional technical expertise to assist their partners and customers feel more comfortable when meeting.

"At AVMS, we realize that the world where we meet, live and play has become a different place," stated Hobie Fugate, CEO of AVMS. "In order to move forward and gather together safely, we must adapt and build a strong sense of community to ensure the health and safety of our team, partners and clientele."

Putting on safe events during a global pandemic requires tremendous innovation, coordination, flexibility, and above all, leadership.

Through the launch of their Safe Meetings and Events website, AVMS has demonstrated a commitment to ESA's founding principal of putting life safety above all other concerns and are setting a standard for what is required to gather to conduct gatherings safely."

AVMS utilized expert advice from the CDC and the Event Safety Alliance to guide them in creating policies and procedures for live and virtual events moving forward.

Over these very difficult past months, AVMS has been busy listening to our customers tell us about their current needs. Whether it is more intimate functions (limited in-person attendance), virtual events (performed online) or a hybrid (integrating elements of both in-person and remote locations), AVMS has the expertise and the equipment to ensure events are successful and safe. In addition, AVMS sanitizes all audiovisual equipment before and after each use to ensure the safety of our team and clientele," stated Fugate.
