Welcome to The Event Corner – Your Ultimate Guide to Event Planning and Growth

Updated: Feb 12



If you’ve ever found yourself balancing last-minute vendor calls, adjusting seating charts for the 100th time, or wondering why event Wi-Fi always seems to have a personal vendetta against you - welcome, you’re in the right place.


The Event Corner is more than just a blog. It’s my personal and professional growth platform - a space where I share insights, experiences, and industry knowledge that I’ve gathered over the years in event planning, management, and execution. Whether you're an event professional, a business looking to elevate your corporate gatherings, or someone who simply loves the thrill of a well-run event, this space is for you.


And yes, this is also a stepping stone for me. One day, I plan to launch my own event management company, and The Event Corner is where that journey begins.


Why The Event Corner?

After years in the world of conferences, award shows, networking events, and corporate summits, I’ve realised one thing: there is no such thing as a “perfect” event, only well-managed chaos.

I’ve been behind the scenes managing VIPs, sponsors, speakers, vendors, and all the moving pieces that make an event work. I’ve had tech glitches 30 seconds before going live, seating plans changed at the eleventh hour, and - on one particularly memorable occasion - a host missed the flight and delayed the start of the event (spoiler: the client was not very upset about it! Phew!).


With each experience, I’ve honed my skills in:

  • Event Strategy & Execution - Taking an idea from concept to reality, seamlessly.

  • Budgeting & Vendor Management - Because let’s be real: negotiating with vendors is an extreme sport.

  • Event Technology & Hybrid Planning - The digital side of events is no longer optional—it’s essential.

  • Problem-Solving Under Pressure - If you can handle an event crisis, you can handle anything.


I created The Event Corner to share these lessons, offer industry insights, and build a community of event professionals who want to grow, learn, and - most importantly - support each other.

Building Towards a Bigger Vision

Here’s the thing - The Event Corner isn’t just about events. It’s also about growth. One of my biggest goals is to build my own event management company in the future. But success in this industry isn’t just about knowing how to run an event - it’s about networking, branding, and positioning yourself as an expert.


That’s exactly why I started this platform. It’s a personal brand, a learning hub, and a stepping stone toward something bigger.


If you’re also thinking about taking your career to the next level, whether it’s growing within a company or starting your own event business, this blog will cover it all.
