The Bloomsbury Club Bar
Delegates To Decide
Sundial asked the question “what would you like the future of conference spaces to look like?” and the delegates responded.
After holding a survey sundial got the answers they wanted from their delegates, which they are now using to their advantage and are incorporating into their refurbishments.
Delegates are changing what they want, moving away from the more conventional four walls and stuffy board rooms, they are looking to embrace outside space, incorporating colour, sounds and smells. Sundial will install new lighting, furniture and facilities which will reflect the desire of today’s meeting planners and attendees for more flexible, free flowing and relaxed meeting environments.
Here’s to the future.
