From the smallest event to the largest event, we provide the unique Planit touch, always going above and beyond for our customers anticipating their needs and meeting their expectations. The firm’s mission statement is to work together through teamwork, communication, coordination, respect, and partnership, and it upholds the ideals of integrity, honesty, reliability, trust, and excellence. With a focus on customer service, professionalism, attention to detail, approachability, accountability, and positivism, Planit also promotes health and wellbeing for its employees, as well as a good work-life balance. By cultivating a work environment centred on employee wellbeing, Planit has created an atmosphere of trust and support, where employees feel cared for. This, in turn, makes them more engaged and committed to the company’s values. Planit promotes regular well-being throughout their staff, from sending out self-care kits or giving their staff self-care tips, educating them on how to look after their mental health to sending them on a Menopause course. “We nurture a diverse and inclusive workplace promoting a culture centred on dignity and respect,” Antionette continues. “We believe happy employees are the core of what makes a fantastic company culture. As a Planit employee, you can do the work you love, be yourself, and make a difference in the event business as a Planit employee. Diversity and inclusion, team culture, and employee health and well-being are all important to us.” The Planit team has a wide variety of skills and a vast background of real-world working experience ready to support businesses in achieving their goals.

This diverse skillset is fully housed within Planit’s building, providing a working advantage not many can match. The all-inone facility includes both a design studio and a fully functioning workshop, providing optimum efficiency, flexibility, and allowing for market-leading quality control every time. “We’ve been around the block a few times and have picked up some valuable lessons along the way,” Antoinette laughs. “That means we are prepared for any potential scenario and have the people, the facilities, and, importantly, the know-how needed to deliver quality results.” Over the last two years, many in-person events were cancelled, postponed or moved to virtual formats. It was such an unpredictable time however Antoinette explains that it also presented opportunities for Planit. “It taught us that we could communicate, hit the road running getting up to speed with technology, engage more with our clients, get the creative minds working, be resilient and still keep the show on the road.” Now, as clients are excited to return to live, inperson events, Planit has been recognised in the EU Business News Irish Enterprise Awards and named Best Corporate Events Company 2022. Both Antoinette and the company’s Co-Founder, Spencer Simmonds, are already planning for a busy and lucrative future, with staff training and a good work-life balance being major focus points for the company. “I think companies will collaborate more and share workforces and knowledge with each other. There’s no doubt that 2022 will be a very busy year for us and our industry, but it will be very important to Planit.” Contact Details Contact: Antoinette Redmond and Spencer Simmonds Company: Planit, Event Management Web Address: http://planit.ie Best Corporate Events Company 2022
