Event Management, ZAL GmbH
ZAL TECHCENTER
»ONE OF THE EVENT HIGHLIGHTS FOR ME THIS YEAR WAS THE SECOND SUMMER
FESTIVAL FOR THE WHOLE ZAL TECHCENTER. THIS BRINGS ALL THE PERSONNEL
FROM THE VARIOUS PARTNER COMPANIES AT THE TECHCENTER TOGETHER IN A
RELAXED SETTING. MUSIC, A BIG BBQ, AND ENTERTAINMENT SUCH AS A PHOTO
BOOTH MAKE FOR A GREAT ATMOSPHERE. THE VARIOUS VIP VISITS THIS YEAR,
FROM HIGH-RANKING INDUSTRY FIGURES TO LEADING POLITICIANS, WERE
ALSO VERY SPECIAL. EVERY VISIT INVOLVES COMPREHENSIVE NEGOTIATIONS
WITH ALL THE PARTNERS AND DETAILED ADVANCED PLANNING OF THE COM-
PLETE SCHEDULE. PARKING SPACES ARE BLOCKED AND EVERYTHING IS POL-
ISHED AND PUT INTO PLACE. AND IF THERE ARE SPONTANEOUS CHANGES OR
REQUESTS DURING THE VISIT, IT′S MY JOB TO MAKE SURE IT STILL ALL GOES
SMOOTHLY. IT COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS ORGANIZING UMBRELLAS FOR THE WALK
ACROSS THE PARKING LOT OR COMMUNICATING WITH THE PARTNERS IN THE
TECHCENTER BECAUSE OF A DELAY.« HENRIETTE OVERBECK
