The right venue for a small business meeting fits your group size, sits close to transport, and includes AV, WiFi and catering without extra add-ons. For groups travelling from out of town, choosing a venue with accommodation on site removes a step from the day and keeps everyone in one place before and after the meeting.
Before you look at any venue, settle three numbers:
A half-day strategy session for eight people needs a different room to a two-day workshop for twenty-five with breakout sessions. Most conference venues set a minimum delegate count for day packages, often around 15 people, so a smaller group may get better value from a boardroom-style meeting room booked by the hour instead.
A venue in the right location saves your attendees time before the meeting has even started. Look for a venue near public transport and close to a CBD or business precinct, particularly if some attendees are flying in or travelling from other parts of the city. Walkable access to cafes and restaurants also matters more than it seems. A short walk for lunch or a coffee break keeps the day on schedule and gives people a proper break between sessions.
Think beyond the room itself. The right small business meeting venue should have the practical facilities needed to keep your meeting moving.
Depending on your agenda, you may want to check for:
Veriu’s meeting and event spaces offer facilities such as Wi-Fi, audio-visual equipment, flexible delegate packages and dedicated events support, with specific facilities varying between properties.
For meetings that bring people in from interstate or regional areas, separating the venue from the accommodation adds a transfer, a taxi booking, and one more thing that can go wrong. A venue that also offers accommodation on site solves this in one booking. Attendees walk from their room to the meeting, and there’s no risk of someone arriving late because their hotel is 20 minutes across town.
Veriu hotels offer this combination across several locations, with meeting and function rooms alongside apartment-style accommodation.
In Sydney, Veriu Green Square, Veriu Macquarie Park, and in Melbourne, Veriu Queen Victoria Market all have on-site meeting spaces.
Each of these locations includes free WiFi, AV equipment and flexible day delegate packages, and several have breakout areas for groups running workshops rather than a single-room agenda.
Because accommodation and meeting space are part of the same property, attendees also get access to apartment-style rooms with a kitchenette, useful for multi-day meetings where people would rather cook a simple dinner than eat out every night.
