Half a million moments, one unforgettable journey

Some milestones take your breath away; reaching half a million events for Cliftons this month is no exception.
It’s a monumental achievement and testament to everything we do daily to ensure we’re a trusted partner for our clients when planning, managing and executing remarkable events.
What is a Seminar

When you think of the word “seminar,” you might imagine experts sharing knowledge, people networking, and deep discussions taking place. But what really is a seminar, and how does it differ from other educational or professional gatherings like workshops and webinars? Let us define seminars in meaning, the different forms it can take, and uncover the myriad of benefits they offer. At Cliftons, we see seminars not just as events, but as transformative experiences that empower attendees and organisers alike.
Smart venue choices to reduce your event’s footprint

Cliftons takes a multi-faceted approach to our ESG goals, and as a result, we’re proud to be awarded the IACC Green Star Certification recently. In particular, our Sydney venue has been awarded the Platinum ranking, the highest level of accreditation, making us one of only six IACC member venues globally to achieve this level and the only Australian venue.
Across our portfolio, we’ve made changes across venues and our food and beverage services to focus on sustainability and help clients reduce the carbon footprint of business meetings and events.
What is failing to execute costing your business

What are ideas worth to your business? Ideas generate innovation, right? But what if we argued that ideas are worthless and it’s the execution that really matters.
Being a great place to work helps our business thrive sustainably

Over the past few years, Cliftons has strongly invested in various ESG programs to ensure we are a robust and sustainable business – now and in the future. With over 25 years experience in delivering remarkable events for our clients, we know this holistic approach to business success will play a key role in remaining an event partner of choice for many years to come. One of our key focus areas has been investing in our people, culminating in our recent recognition for the second year running as one of the AFR BOSS Best Places to Work in the Retail, Hospitality, Tourism & Entertainment category.
