If someone is looking to win over a new client or finally land that big account, they need to be sure their meeting venue stands out.
The location of a meeting is almost as important as the meeting itself. It can communicate a number of important things about the host, like their attention to detail and their preparedness. And if a sales associate, president, or CEO is really looking to wow a potential client, they may reach out to an event venue like ours.
We host lots of events, from weddings to consumer trade shows. But every event is different, so it’s important to offer planners options for meeting venues. At Overland Park Convention Center, we have the event spaces a business needs to impress their partners.
Read about our options for a financial meeting venue in Kansas City, and learn how you can optimize your event center’s offerings to meet your needs.
Variety Is Key
If you’re an event center that wants to host business meetings, you need to be sure you can meet the needs of your planners, no matter what those needs may be.
It’s not just about offering a conference room where guests can talk to partners and clients. It’s about providing a venue that excites clients just as much as that big pitch.
So let’s take a look at some of the meeting venues we offer, so you get an idea of what planners and clients are looking for.
Customizable Spaces
It’s important that you can adjust your meeting spaces to fit the ever-changing needs of the event planner. Our courtyard rooms are an excellent choice for anyone interested in a customizable meeting space.
These rooms can accommodate hundreds of guests, but we can also customize them to make for a more intimate space. You need to be prepared for a change in the client’s plans. Always be willing to adapt.
An Assortment of Amenities
It’s not enough just to give guests a space to meet—you want to provide a space that speaks for them, that shows off their commitment to style and care. Our executive conference room is a high-end option for clients looking to impress their partners.

This space is impressive and comfortable, but it’s also useful. The executive conference room has a personal bathroom, kitchenette, blackout curtains, flatscreen television, and more. Be sure to offer a space that has the amenities your client needs for an efficient, productive meeting.
Other Options
Most of us probably have a similar image in our heads when we picture a financial meeting venue in Kansas City. Maybe there’s a long conference table, or a projector presenting an earnings report. But don’t limit yourself to traditional venues. Meeting spaces can take all different shapes and sizes. Some other options we offer include:
Ballrooms
A financial meeting doesn’t have to be a serious affair. Schedule your client’s luncheon or dinner party in a ballroom, and they can discuss business over a delicious meal.
Outdoor Spaces
Who says business needs to take place indoors? Help your clients set themselves apart by scheduling their meeting in an outdoor space. There’s nothing better than talking shop under the sun.
Exhibition Halls
Give guests room to breathe. Never be afraid to suggest a large gathering space, like our exhibition halls, so your planner’s clients can mingle with hundreds or thousands of guests at once.
Give Event Planners a Real Advantage
If your client wants to stand out during their next meeting, they need a venue that stands out too. We want to help you help your clients.
Whether an event planner is looking to host a meeting, conference, or consumer trade show, they deserve an event center that can meet their expectations. Read our blog to hear more of our tips, or reach out to us today.
