LAS VEGAS, Dec. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The way people
meet continues to evolve, and Park MGM and Cisco are ready to
provide that next-level meeting experience in the new
7,000-square-foot Ideation Studio, the most recent member of elite
meetings association IACC. Working with Cisco Systems, Park MGM is
the world's first hotel to offer groups Cisco Webex™ Boards and
Cisco Webex Teams, providing teams a combined real and virtual
meeting space for collaborating, video calling, whiteboarding and
sharing notes, files and presentations.
Meeting planners, presenters and attendees will appreciate
Ideation Studio's "smart" conference space's ability to recognize
each person's device as they enter their designated room,
regardless of the type of device, make or model. No wires and no
passcodes required in this secure meeting space. The intuitive
system also has the ability to capture the team's valueable meeting
notes and make them and all meeting materials easily accessible
long after the meeting ends, dramatically improving the meeting
experience. If someone needs to join remotely, the experience is
just as simple and powerful.
Beyond the technology, elements within the Ideation Studio are
based on behavioral science and how people interact with the
environment. Chair and table height, lighting, flooring and room
configurations were selected to enhance engagement and the flow of
ideas. With four distinct layouts and 10 rooms for groups of
six up to 24, the variety of options provide the right solution for
that next strategic planning session.
The technologically advanced system, along with the
science-based configurations and room features, are key reasons the
Ideation Studio became the newest member of IACC, an elite group of
300 conferencing venues in 26 countries that strive to represent
the top 1% of meeting spaces worldwide. IACC member venues are
part of a global community of companies delivering innovative and
exceptional meeting experiences.
Mark Cooper, IACC's CEO, said,
"The designs of Park MGM's Ideation Studio have taken into
consideration many of the trends and preferences from meeting
planners that IACC has identified through its research. The Park
MGM leadership team has poured so much dedication and passion into
developing a haven for small meetings and we look forward to
bringing our own events to these inspiring meeting spaces in the
future."
The Ideation Studio opening marks the completion of The Meeting
Center at Park MGM, offering a fresh perspective that inspires
interaction and connection.
Easily accessible from all guest rooms and
the resort lobby, the 77,000-square-foot conference area features
an expansive ballroom, 29 meeting rooms, a 4,345-square-foot
private outdoor terrace, and the Madison Meeting Center – also IACC
certified and Las Vegas' first
executive meeting center including a Daily Meeting Package
(DMP). In addition to the meeting space, Park Theater, the
centerpiece of Park MGM's entertainment experience, doubles as a
signature event space able to accommodate up to 5,200 guests within
30,000 square feet.
With a combination of modern, non-traditional spaces and
flexible design, Park MGM's new meeting offerings fill an unmet
need in Las Vegas. For more information or to book the new
space, email Meetings@ParkMGM.com or call 800.311.5999.
