Welcome to another (short) week and if the Bank Holiday weather hasn't been all that you hoped it may be then it may be time to escape and here at Cloud 9 Towers we have just the thing that might appeal to you.
If you fancy a mixture of stunning surrounds, five star accommodation, a little culture and the opportunity to mix with some of the senior business leaders from across Europe then an exclusive event at the wonderful boutique Barcelo Formentor Hotel on 10 July is an ideal escape.
Daniel Barenboim KBE, who is an Israeli Argentine-born pianist and
conductor, is giving a unique performance in Europe, on a stage overlooking the sea. He has served as music director of several major symphonic
and operatic orchestras and made numerous recordings.
Currently, he is general music director of La Scala in Milan, the Berlin State Opera, and the Staatskapelle Berlin; he previously served as Music Director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Orchestre de Paris. Barenboim is also known for his work with the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, a Seville-based orchestra of young Arab and Israeli musicians, and as a resolute critic of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories.
Barenboim has received many awards and prizes, including an honorary Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire, France's Légion d'honneur both as a Commander and Grand Officier, the German Großes Bundesverdienstkreuz and Willy Brandt Award, and, together with the Palestinian-American scholar Edward Said, Spain's Prince of Asturias Concord Award. He has won seven Grammy awards for his work and discography.As if the opportunity to see Barenboim first hand was not enough, the setting for the event is also truly world class. The hotel Barceló Formentor is a luxurious establishment located in the Formentor Cape, North from the Mallorca island, at the foot of the famous Formentor beach and surrounded by 1,200 hectares of Mediterranean forest. Throughout its history, the hotel has been the place of choice for numerous renowned characters as a place to repose and relax.
There are some fantastic packages available to be a part of this very special event, either as an exclusive sponsor which includes a private dinner with the Maestro himself, or just as a client, but places do tend to sell out fast.
The publicity that surrounds this event is second to none, so if we can help secure your place, please make sure you contact us asap as tickets do tend to sell out rather quickly.
In other news this week, please don't forget that the Midlands Media Nominations were announced on Friday so it's now tine to book for the Awards ceremony on 5 June, and although the early bird discount is now over for the 2014 CIPR Northern Conference, you can still book tickets for the event on 12 June online. Make sure you don't miss any events by checking our online diary regularly!
Finally this week, the team are getting geared up for this years Meetings Show in July, and each of us has had several invitations to attend via different sources. The Meetings Show has been specifically designed to maximise your time.
From 8-10th July Olympia London, buyers and exhibitors will be inspired
to do business, develop industry knowledge and networking with the best
in the industry. Spread over an exciting week in July, The Meetings
Show will be the place to be in 2014.
As well as finding these events incredibly useful, the opportunity to connect with existing and new venue suppliers, we also really find the educational aspect of these events a worthwhile reason to attend.
In 2013, The Meetings Show had a full 3 day educational programme,
developed by their Education Panel of leading industry figures and
designed to ensure meetings professionals from every sector came away
with new ideas and inspiration and although this years programme has yet to be announced, we will feel pretty confident that this years programme will be even better.
So that's it for this week, enjoy!
