BARNA ROCKS - Wish you were here!

The Challenge

For the 4th time running, BARNA chose AVT to provide live event and technical production services for their Annual Conference.  This 3-day event took place at Hove Town Hall and attracted over 250 delegates, all working in anaesthetics and recovery.

The AVT Solution

The conference took place in the Banqueting Room where AVT had a highly experienced technician on hand.  We were also asked to provide a technician working in the Committee Room with a laptop and in the Council Chamber.

Having covered the event for BARNA in previous years, our team was keen to meet and exceed their requirements, whilst making the most of available resources.  The Hove Centre is a versatile venue, and the exhibition area is spacious and airy.  We designed and provided a bespoke stage set with a screen to compliment the surroundings.

AVT’s extensive range of AV equipment and expertise was also called upon and equipment used included: laptops, data projector, amps, mixers, speakers and stands, a laser point, lectern, remote control mouse, CD player and specialist microphones.

“It is always a pleasure to work for BARNA as they are all doing such essential jobs.  We are delighted to be able to help them communicate with their members and take care of the ‘behind the scenes’ and live event production.  We understand that this is an extremely important occasion, as information and ideas are exchanged and the environment is very much about learning and discussion. 

Our team is used to dealing with technical and complex information and also delivering on time and to budget – no matter how small or large the project.”

Sarah Doyle, AVT Account Manager

The Results

Delegates attended clinical and management main lecture tracks, with break out workshops comprising opportunities for the vital smaller group discussions and hands-on practical workshops.

Topics this year included non-invasive ventilation, humidification, fluid management, blood loss and transfusion, anaphylaxis, epidural anaesthesia, ECG, and blood gas interpretation.

Feedback was again extremely positive from attendees, speakers, exhibitors and sponsors alike.

‘Working with AVT is always a straightforward affair – they deal with all the event specifics and technical details in a calm, professional matter.  They have always delivered on the briefs given to them and clearly understand the different dynamics that are sometimes required when working for different types and sizes of  membership based organisations.  AVT consistently give us the highest standards of production and support and are always extremely flexible.’
