JUMP TO TOPICS COVERED ON THIS PAGE:
CORPORATE SKI EVENT MANAGEMENT
The heady mix of jaw-dropping surroundings, lavish accommodation and snow sports, with their shared challenges in foreboding and inspiring terrain is a potent means to achieve business objectives. Corporate ski trips continue to eclipse most other corporate event formats by offering superb quality and a true break in the day-to-day activities of the organisation.
Winter events deliver big on a multitude of corporate objectives beginning with team building. Whether excelling or battling their very obvious limits in the mountains, group ski participants frequently rewrite company folklore.
The weather, terrain, cuisine and activities in the mountains offer a starkly different and immensely rewarding experience. There is diversity and uniqueness across the valleys of the Alps with Italy offering the Dolomites, sensational food and famed style. Austria offers the best snow, the most passionate skiers and après ski from another universe.
The Matterhorn dominates the horizon in Zermatt and beyond whilst Swiss quality is the envy of the world. France has gastronomy like nowhere else, huge linked ski areas and the cloud-piercing Mont Blanc on the horizon.
MEETING & INCENTIVE EVENT MANAGEMENT
Pool parties, water sports or fine dining on roof-top terraces, summer incentives offer fantastic settings to meet, reward or incentivise. There are summer event locations where traditions have remained constant and infrastructure has been overhauled. Where regional, culinary identities thrive and hotels boast stunning terraces and super-modern spa complexes.
There are locations where the mountains give way to the shimmering ocean or emerald blue Alpine lakes. Where marinas, beaches or pools provide superb party venues to take clients far from their daily settings. Activities can be as adventurous as canyoning, rafting or land yachting, a little slower with golf or sailing or fully indulgent with fine dining, wine tasting or day spas.
CSR, ESG & SUSTAINABLE EVENT MANAGEMENT
There are compelling CSR and ESG reasons to choose a sustainable event. As our social & environmental challenges mount, and sustainability campaigns bears fruit, sustainable events are likely to become the norm, rather than the exception.
They not only benefit the clients, but they can also deliver a lasting, positive legacy for the destination – who would have thought that event travel could be a force for good?
Banish the thought that a sustainable event equates to overnights in a yurt and litter collection by day. Sustainable events can be everything a non-sustainable event is, only better for the soul (plus local economies, women, and nature).
Coasteering the Mediterranean coast, dining in Michelin Green Star restaurants, moving to the hum of electrons – sustainable and seriously good.
CONFERENCE MANAGEMENT
Conference directories will churn out lists of venues to host international conferences. Well served by air, road and rail links, these professional conference venues successfully host a variety of commercial sectors year-round, in vast halls, supported by superb services.
Some conferences are of the size where only the biggest regional conference venues will accommodate their needs. Vast spaces to bring the best together under a single roof.
We offer conference management services in & around the Alps and whilst there are often compelling reasons to host a conference in Zurich, Munich or Vienna locations, there are also many overlooked regional conference venues, which may offer better options than the familiar choices.
Conferences hosted in unique, architectural wonders, situated in magical, easy to navigate locations and offering unmatched dining & activity programmes.
RECENT CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Corporations large and small trust us to deliver exceptional experiences for their teams, partners, and clients. Client feedback is hugely beneficial in developing our event products.

JAGGED HORIZONS - EVENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY
The right venue in the perfect location, with superb activities – Jagged Horizons are an experienced and acclaimed event management agency, who plan inspired corporate events of outstanding quality and excellent value. Whatever the focus of your group ski trip or corporate event, the unfamiliar Alpine setting offers the chance to detach from day-to-day routines and compels groups to enjoy, plan or reflect.
Meeting & incentive trips offer so much more than a horizon full of parasols – escape to locations in Italy and Spain that are closely guarded local secrets, to the drama of the arctic, the wilds of the Atlantic coast or one of the endless mesmerising cities which dot the European landscape.
Delivering on corporate event goals requires an ability to understand the clients’ needs and draw on experience gained managing numerous inspired events, where ‘money can’t buy’ moments come as standard. Value is combination of cost and outcomes, whilst memorable events which deliver on business objectives, need not break the bank. We have a long list of glowing praise from our clients.
We would be delighted to help you in the planning and event management of an outstanding corporate ski trip, meeting or incentive event, and can create an exceptional sustainable event on the snow or under the sun.
