Experience something together

Team events

The only item on the agenda at a company or team event in NRW is to experience something together. Here, everyone pulls together. What counts is the sense of togetherness. And, of course, the fun. The fun factor can be combined with action and thrills or with games and strategy. One thing's for sure: work doesn't start again until tomorrow.

Let's go to the team events

Thinking about tomorrow

Sustainable, digital and regional

Sustainability and digitalisation determine the forward-looking actions of the almost 1,600 large trade fair operators and small event locations between the Rhine, Ruhr and Weser rivers. They think globally, work digitally and are committed regionally.

The MICE industry has also been committed to its social responsibility for years and is increasingly focussing on sustainability when organising trade fairs, congresses and conferences, cultural and sporting events. The highest standards also apply to the organisation of hybrid events. Whether live or digitally connected: The standards are high both for the encryption of live streams and chats and for exhibitors and visitors on site.
