BizBash Live! Event professionals: In six days, this is where you need to be.

I'm not sure exactly when I discovered BizBash, the media/tradeshow company that IMHO is more tapped in to the national & international special event industry than any organization or competing company. This is a resource all of us in the industry need to stay current in all aspects of the business. Reading the magazine and surfing their amazing website is a given, and can be done in the comfort of your office or home. But ours is an experiential business, right? So when all the talent and connections of BizBash spring to life at BizBash Live! on October 28th at the Javits Center in NYC, you should reschedule any appointments you can and get yourself and your colleagues to the show.


Whether you are a planner or a supplier, the amount of knowledge and connections you will get from BizBash Live will be invaluable, I'm guessing you will thank me next Wednesday. If you decide to go please let me know, email me harryspivak@gmail.com or tweet @harryspivak so we can say hi.

Here are more reasons not to miss this event. BizBash Live will have more than 100 trade show floor exhibitors, the Event Style Awards, the Event Innovation Forum returns featuring a new roster of speakers guaranteed to reignite your passion for events. Gain insights from thought leaders and creative thinkers including Nicky Balestrieri of BMF Media, Dan Griffis of Target, Will Travis of Sid Lee, Lauren Kane of charity:water, Lance Broumand of UrbanDaddy, Ryan Begelman of Bisnow Media, Frank Supovitz of Fast Traffic Events, and others.

    Wow! That looks like some incredible catering. How many people from the company do you think are there, because it looks like they have a pretty big corporate gathering. I bet the food was amazing, because it always is when it's catered in. I love when my work caters in food. It just makes the work day a little bit better. http://www.redpearcatering.com.au

Reminiscences of Max & Me Catering. Part VIII

Image
As we continued the process of growing Max & Me as a premier corporate catering concern in Philly, a new venue that was under construction came into my awareness in the Spring of 2001. Jaisy Styles, who at the time was with PGI, a major event planning and destination management company, told me about the National Constitution Center and that I should contact a Phil Castellano to find out about the plans for catering in the venue. Well after many calls and emails that went un-returned, I eventually found out how to get in the door. Rather than rewrite what I have already written, I'm going to regurgitate three separate Facebook posts that I wrote last year. These are what prompted me to do this series on the history of Max & Me Catering. After these three Facebook posts, (which I tried to write on anniversaries of the occurrences) I decided to just write the whole history as a blog series. Now I have reached this point, and I feel like just cutting and pasting and sharing.

The Quagmire of Quarantining, a pandemic post, Volume 1

Image
Note: this post was mostly written last April when the pandemic was just beginning. I have always planned to chronicle my experiences during this period in our lives, but life and all my projects always seemed to get in the way. Not that I have more time now, but I strongly feel a very positive change in the winds, and that if I don't write and remember now, I will have missed a chance.  Vaccine #1! March 17th, Pfizer. PA Convention Center April 17, 2020: Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Quarantine. Darling? Yes or no? It sucks, but it may be saving our lives, so yes like a true darling of a relationship we have our ups and downs, but we'd have it no other way. So, if we embrace it and try to make the best of it, maybe it's transformative in a good way. That has become my approach anyway. The "Quagmire"? It is for me the boredom and loneliness that comes with the damn thing. Naturally social humans, of which I am usually one, crave the interaction of be

Authentic Catering, here we go again...

Image
I guess it had to come to this. After over 7 years of trying to help other catering companies grow, and almost 10 years since I last was the driving force in a catering company, I have decided to incorporate and create my dream catering company. As most of you know who read this blog regularly, the most enjoyable and rewarding job I have ever had was with Max & Me Catering. The six and a half years that we grew the company from under one million dollars in sales to almost twelve million was a wild and crazy ride that I will never forget. The relationships we made, the high profile successful events, the great staff, and the happy repeat clients made the those years that I was mostly absent from my family seem worth it. Until it all came tumbling down. Ever since, I have been chasing that feeling and hoped to achieve it through alliances with other successful catering companies, without having to do the real work myself. It kind of worked and I was able to put my daughter through
