As a meeting organizer, the health and wellbeing of your attendees and participants is top-of-mind as you look to design experiences that are safe and impactful for all of your stakeholders. Brain-friendly menus, natural light and movement (and modifications therein) are important factors in the design of experiences that help learners grow and change, networkers meet the right people and event owners achieve objectives. But you need to be healthy, too—to pull off a successful event. So, what are some tips and tricks to achieve both?
