Change communication The customer or Meeting Tomorrow may determine, before or during an event, that additional services not originally included in this Agreement are necessary, and you agree to pay for any billable services requested by your company representatives for this event.

If it's a meeting or event where lights, sound, and projections are usually hung from the ceiling, find out if your venue charges for using mounting points. To realize your vision and maintain a tight budget, you must consider audiovisual rates and infrastructure costs when planning and deciding on venues and other facilities for your event.
The final bill will include any changes that you or your team request while you were present at the event and that Meeting Tomorrow will send you after the event is over.

To compensate for the loss of audiovisual revenues, venues will be limited to adding to the general bill a service charge, at the rate they themselves determine, for all equipment brought to the venue by an external audiovisual company. Rescheduling the event Any date change to the event after the execution of the agreement must be communicated to Meeting Tomorrow in writing at least two weeks before the original delivery date. Before you start selecting the venue, plan the scale and scope of production you want for your event. For example, the electrical power of the event, group Internet use, and equipment needs may vary depending on the scope of the event.
In addition, you can determine before or during an event that equipment or services not originally contracted are necessary for that event. But at what unnecessary cost to your event budget? External audiovisual providers can do just as good, if not better, work with your event than internal ones, and potentially cost less.
