Business travel expenses are often a large burden for British business with increasing flight and accommodation expenses plus fluctuating foreign exchange rates all representing additional financial challenges. With so many factors to take into consideration, choosing a venue finding agent capable of getting the most from any international conference or meeting room booking is one way to claw back a competitive edge.

Costs aside, arranging an event overseas comes with its own unique set of challenges. Sundial Options and Solutions, the venue finding agent from the award-winning Sundial Group is offering its experienced international venue finding team free of charge to British firms planning an international event. The team has an in-depth understanding of a number of global locations, including destinations in Europe and the United States of America.

Demonstrating its international venue finding service savvy, the international event management experts have this week released their top five international cities to do business in. This list is a starting point for anyone charged with planning or managing an international event for their company but unsure of the most appropriate, engaging and exciting destination in which to hold it.

1. London

Cool Britannia is a leader of the business pack when it comes to smooth event management and delegate enjoyment. Regularly named one of the world’s top business hubs, London has a plethora of conference venues and meeting rooms, with styles, budgets and facilities to suit everyone from the smallest company up to the largest global conglomerate. With buzzing technology, fashion and finance communities, London is an excellent choice for your next event.

2. Shanghai

For long haul luxury, look no further than Shanghai. The shopping, eating and accommodation choices are second to none and world class conference venues make doing business a breeze. A great choice for brands with businesses dotted around the globe, Shanghai enjoys excellent transport links so is easy to get to and from with the minimum of fuss. An exhilarating metropolis and one of the fastest growing cities in the world, Shanghai is sure to inspire delegates to push boundaries.

3. Paris

Just a short Eurostar trip from London or a quick international flight, the eternally stylish city has a number of large hotel and conference venues as well as hotels with meeting rooms for smaller events.

4. New York

If you have a lot to get through, ask your venue finding agent about conference and meeting rooms in the city that never sleeps. With industries of every kind, companies of every size, specialist and language all calling New York home, few places are as geared up for business success as the Big Apple. With an almost limitless supply of venues and a favourable pound to dollar exchange rate, NYC is a popular choice. Excellent transport links and a number of daily flights direct from London and other UK regional airports make the city a convenient international choice.

5. Brussels

The administrative centre of the European Union, you’re guaranteed to be in illustrious company when holding an event in Brussels. The capital of Belgium, the city is cosmopolitan and spacious with a huge choice of venues all within a few hours of the UK.
