Companies are often looking for new, authentic destinations where to organize business meetings and corporate events that positively impress participants. Apart from the quality of service and facilities, the meeting venue and the destination where the event takes place can be the distinctive marks and winning cards for a successful corporate special occasion.
Just imagine the positive and inspirational impact that choosing a location like the Gulf of Poets can have on attendees… after all, this destination has lured writers and poets for generations, inspiring them to write and sing about Portovenere, its enchanted gulf and local activities.
The best location for Corporate Events near the Cinque Terre
The Gulf of Poets in eastern Liguria represents an off-the-beaten-path destination with lots of activities for leisure and team building. It is strategically located between the blue Ligurian Sea and the green Apennines, surrounded by amazing nearby attractions such as the Cinque Terre, Tuscany’s Versilia (Forte dei Marmi and Viareggio), Florence, and Emilia Romagna’s Parma and Bologna.
In particular, the medieval sea village of Portovenere offers an ideal location for business meetings, as it is easily reachable by boat but also by bus and by car (unlike other villages in the surroundings, where car transit is forbidden).
