Professional Assocations

Organizations that rely upon strong member relations to thrive can use corporate hospitality as a strategic approach to member recruitment and appreciation. To design or implement an effective corporate hospitality event or program for your membership, Groovy Grapes is your ideal corporate event planning partner.

We combine our business acumen with culinary expertise to ensure that professional associations meet goals such as:

  • Attracting and retaining members
  • Increasing the value and enhancing the caché of member events
  • Attracting and retaining association and event sponsors
  • Remaining top-of-mind and reinforcing the value of membership
  • Providing the correct level of food and drink at meetings and events
  • Creating a networking environment that is both professional and relaxed
  • Developing a system to evaluate the ROI that your investment in corporate hospitality delivers to the association

What’s Your Occasion?

For member-driven organizations, we help to design and manage corporate hospitality for professional occasions such as:

  • Membership meetings, Board meetings and AGMs
  • Conference and event planning
  • Member appreciation
  • Board and executive retreats

Breaking Bread & Building Business

We also partner with associations to develop business-building programs that leverage food and drink to appreciate, reward and motivate the most important individuals in your ecosystem. We can set your business apart with an exceptional sponsor or member appreciation program, achievement award program and other unique strategies.

Your Partner in Corporate Hospitality

We also draw on our experiences across thousands of successful corporate meetings, conferences, events and culinary festivals to deliver high-value consulting and advisory services related to corporate hospitality, food and drink investments. We work with member-based associations to ensure that food and drink are used as strategic tools to achieve organizational goals.


The Right Level of Service for You

Whether you’re an event management professional looking for new ideas or corporate event planning support – or a frazzled director who needs someone to take event planning completely off your hands – Groovy Grapes has a service model to suit you.


We’ll work with you to design the event concept, format and menu, and we’ll be on standby to provide you with coaching as you manage the event logistics.

In addition to designing the event and providing you with coaching, we’ll send Groovy Grapes staff to the event to facilitate wine tastings and other activities.

We’ll work closely with you but we’ll do ALL the work – from concept design to onsite facilitation and complete event management.
