Corporate and Business Leaders May Find Profit Potential and Contacts at the Green During the Democratic National Convention in Denver

Premiere and Unique Hospitality Village Will Cover Two Blocks Near the Pepsi Center Convention Headquarters

Jan Corn
If you happen to want to reach any of the 35,000 people and 15,000 members of the media who will be converging in Denver in August for the Democratic National Convention, you might want to learn more about The Green. Nope, this isn't a golf course or something like that. Instead, it is a unique Hospitality Paviillion (or a hospitality village) that will be set within a few blocks of the Democratic National Convention headquarters.

The convention itself is scheduled from August 23-29 but prime space is already at a premium. This makes The Green even more attractive to power brokers wanting to reach powerful clients - as well as to tie up lucrative business deals or lobby for important political issues. While basic questions will be answered in this article, you can check out the website for The Green right here: dncevents.com/index.cfm

What makes The Green so attractive for business leaders at the Democratic National Convention?

Basically, it may be one of the few space still open for meetings, promotions and special events. It also has a prime location and covers at least two square blocks. When convention goers leave their hotels and set out for the day, this space could attract them when not in the Pepsi Center convention headquarters. In addition, The Green will be run with the participation of MorEvents, an experienced global event planning company.

Who is most likely to want to use The Green during the Democratic National Convention in Denver?

Just about anyone wanting to reach the huge crowds of people, including many business owners and corporate sponsors, who will be attending the Democratic National Convention in Denver. That includes law firms, lobbying organizations and, as always, the news media. This could be a prime opportunity to get some media coverage!

What sort of events could exhibitors arrange if they used The Green during the Democratic National Convention?

If you can imagine it, odds are high that some similar arrangement can be created (within reason). Possibilities include business meetings, networking and meeting and greeting people, making new connections, socializing, hosting meals and arranging for entertainment to draw crowds (and potential clients). Events can be customized.

Why is the center called The Green?

Because the Democratic National Convention is trying to focus on an eco-friendly event this year, the Hospitality Paviillion in Denver is going to stress environmentally kind materials and themes. The name keeps the focus up front, particularly important during this political occasion.

What type of branding and brand name recognition opportunities will clients have if they use The Green at Denver's Democratic National Convention?

It depends on the type of sponsorship chosen. Sponsorships include Presenting, Partner, Stars and Stripes, Networking, Energy and Green Sponsorships. Each comes with their own features and benefits. As one example, a Presenting Sponsorship would get large signs at major locations in the Hospitality Village, flags attached to poles, major exposure of brands to the attendees and sponsors at The Green, press releases, a corporate logo on the DNC's list of events online (at the website), use of the Hospitality Structure for the entire week and a 20 x10 exhibit space. In addition, clients would get discounted hotel rooms.

For further information on the type of sponsorships available, check out The Green's website and information here: dncevents.com/index.cfm or simply call (303)
782-5000.

What other amenities or benefits are available to those using The Green at the Democratic National Convention in Denver?

If you can imagine a huge, two block area of structures that look a bit like tents but have all the upscale features you'd expect in any major business or convention center, that is what you'll find here. You can reserve a meeting and entertaining location within The Green for up to 150 guests or clients. There will be plenty of seating, presentation space, food and beverage seating, a Networking Center and Plasma tv broadcast, including live feed to the convention floor!

If you want to get in on major business opportunities at the Democratic National Convention, then you should definitely check out The Green while there is still space available. With at least 35,000 people expected at the Democratic Convention, prime space so close to the convention site is sure to attract visitors looking for a place to unwind, be entertained, make new contacts and even get some work done before heading back to the convention. Some may have hotel rooms far from the Pepsi Center and would welcome the chance to conduct business nearby.

    But J. - the Democrats aren't into the Corporate and Big Business thing - they're for 'the middle class'... Good article. I would go to Denver, but the cost of airfare is prohibitive. Wonder if Associated Content will be there.... Write On, Michael
