From first brief to final report
Clear service standards and one accountable team — even on a compressed timeline. Here is exactly what a client can expect, from the first message to the post-event report.
We reply to every brief within 12 hours with initial venue and concept directions, and the questions we need to scope the event.
A full written proposal — event concept, venue shortlist and a budget breakdown — so you can decide with real numbers.
On sign-off we countersign a contract and run a focused briefing to lock objectives, audience, format and budget.
We turn the brief into a production concept and a first cost estimation for your approval, before anything is committed.
We shortlist and secure the experiential venue that fits the concept, date and budget from held inventory and our vetted network.
We collect, negotiate and contract suppliers — build, AV, catering, staffing, branding — against our vetted local networks in each hub.
Run-of-show built to the minute, logistics and crew managed, and the whole event run on the ground on the day.
Post-event reconciliation, attendee-data and content handover, with simple monthly invoicing across the engagement.
Every engagement runs on a signed contract with clear SLAs and transparent monthly invoicing — the same standard whether it is a 500-guest party or a focused invite-only reception.

Request a Networking Proposal →Networking event questions
01How far in advance should we book a venue for a conference week?
Book 8–12 weeks out for anything near Token2049, EthCC, Consensus, SBC or ICE — the walkable venues go first. CH3 can move faster through its local network in each hub, but booking early means a better venue, a better rate and fewer compromises.
02What’s the difference between a cocktail party and a networking event?
The cocktail party is the format; networking is the goal. CH3 builds both: relaxed receptions that let conversation happen on its own, and structured formats with hosted introductions when you need specific people to meet.
03Can you get a venue within walking distance of the conference?
Usually yes, and it matters more than almost anything else — walkability is the single biggest driver of turnout. CH3 holds venue relationships in all 12 hubs and comes back with three options against your brief within 48 hours.
04Do you handle the guest list and invitations?
Yes. CH3 can run the whole flow — targeted invites, RSVP tracking, waitlists and check-in on the door — or plug into your CRM and just manage capacity and the door on the night.
05How much does a networking event cost per guest?
Roughly $63–151 per guest depending on the city, covering venue, catering, AV and branding. Malta and Lisbon sit at the low end, Paris and Singapore at the top. You get a written, city-specific budget within 48 hours of your brief.
06Can we co-host with another brand to split the cost?
Yes — co-hosted and multi-sponsor formats are one of the cheapest ways to widen reach. CH3 handles shared branding, combined guest lists and clean logo placement so every partner gets fair visibility.
07What stops it becoming a room full of strangers on their phones?
Density and curation. CH3 sizes the room to the list rather than filling it, briefs hosts to make introductions on purpose, and paces food and drink so people keep circulating instead of settling into corners.
08What do we get after the event?
Attendance against registration, photo and video capture, guest and VIP data handed back for follow-up, and a standardised recap report — so the event is measurable rather than anecdotal.
