IMAPAC Conference Philosophy & Best Practices

Future problems not past successes set our agendas

OUR VALUES: 5 BIG “I”S

  • Integrity: Only if we believe we can and want to produce world-class content, we’ll ask our client to invest time and money.
  • Initiative: Future problems not past successes set our agendas, we want to bring you solutions to problems you are about to face. We take the lead and push the industry forward with our world-class agendas!
  • Innovative: We trade on innovation. So no copying, no resting on our laurels and if it’s not new it’s old.
  • Interactive: We do our best work listening to our customers; by interacting with industry we are able to provide solutions to their problems.
  • Inspire: If we can inspire a new business idea, a technological innovation, a new trend or a solution to a problem; then we have done what we set out to do.

OUR APPROACH:

  • We are highly motivated by our customers' needs.
  • We are committed to creating forward-looking and creative business experiences for our customers.
  • We understand and deeply believe that conference production is a creative and challenging endeavor.
  • We see conferences as media brands that create great internal and external leverage for the company.

Mind Mapping & Creativity

Mind Mapping is the core creative process that we use at IMAPAC. It puts pencils to paper. Putting pencil to paper is the most effective way to create. It is not possible to create connection and flow by working direct to PC.

Mind Mapping is the perfect platform for the creation and development of agendas: It is the only way to map relationships between sub-topics and relationships between players. Mind Mapping is the basis of our research methodology. By employing Mind Mapping we get a lot different, a lot better and a lot quicker.
