Over the past few months, EMTACCS vzw has once again had the privilege of supporting several wonderful events with emergency care assistance. As the sole organization, or in collaboration with other partners, we were able to deliver top-quality care time and again and truly make a difference for a number of patients in life-threatening situations. Because our teams always have nurses or doctors with extensive treatment options at their disposal, we are able to deliver on this time and again.

Are you organizing an event soon? Do you want more than just a first aider, but rather highly trained staff who can make a difference in crucial moments? Then EMTACCS vzw might be your partner! Do not hesitate to contact us at info@emtaccs.be

This week, the Week of Workplace Happiness and the Week of Vitality take center stage.

Two themes that come together perfectly in what I have been doing with Smile at Work for 20 years.

Because laughing together isn't just fun. During my laughter sessions and workshops, I see time and again what it does to a group: people get moving, let go of tension for a moment, gain new energy, and connect with each other in a different way.

And attention to job satisfaction and vitality remains important.

🇧🇪 In Belgium, on an average workday in 2025, 8.09% of employees were absent due to illness.

In the Netherlands, sickness absence amounted to 5.4% in 2025. Of the employees who were absent, 23% indicated that their last absence was wholly or partially work-related. Among that work-related absence, excessive workload was the most frequently cited cause, at 28%.

Of course, you don't solve high work pressure or absenteeism with a laughter workshop.

But job satisfaction is also about fun, connection, relaxation, and recharging together.

And that is exactly where laughing together has its power: it gets people moving, gives energy, and creates connection. ❤️

After more than 35,000 participants, it remains fantastic to see what happens when colleagues start laughing together.

Are you organizing a team day, staff event, conference, or wellbeing program? Book Geert for a laughter workshop or energizer and let your team experience it for themselves. 😄

Every Smile Counts.

Event Production in Barcelona’s Historic Venues: The Technical Logistics Guide

During major trade shows like MWC or ISE, premium brands often host their gala dinners and private keynotes outside the main exhibition halls. They choose Barcelona’s stunning historic buildings.

Venues like the MNAC, Llotja de Mar, or the Palau de la Música Catalana offer breathtaking architecture. However, they also present massive logistical challenges for foreign production agencies.

You are not building a stand in an empty concrete hall anymore. You are working inside protected heritage sites. Therefore, standard event construction rules do not apply.

At Saez Decom, we have decades of experience building custom scenography and technical structures inside these exact buildings. Here is our insider guide to successfully managing event production in Barcelona’s historic venues without risking your deposit.

1. Floor Protection: The Non-Negotiable Rule

Historic venues have centuries-old flooring. A single scratch from a truss base plate can result in severe financial penalties.

The Rule: In venues like the MNAC (National Art Museum of Catalonia) and the Llotja de Mar, absolute floor protection is mandatory.

Our Process: We never place any structure directly on the original floor. First, we must install a complete layer of protective event carpet or technical flooring. Consequently, any heavy equipment, such as LED wall ground support or modular BeMatrix walls, is built safely on top of this protective layer.

2. City Center Access: The Truck Logistics Challenge

Transporting tonnes of AV and scenic equipment requires large trucks. However, historic buildings were not designed for modern logistics.

Palau de la Música Catalana & Llotja de Mar: Both venues are located right in the heart of Barcelona’s tight city center. Loading and unloading are highly complicated. There is minimal space for large trucks to maneuver or park.

The Solution: Precision timing is crucial. We use smaller, agile transport vehicles from our local fleet. Additionally, we coordinate exact drop-off windows to ensure the streets remain clear and the build-up continues without interruption.

3. Strict Schedules: Open Museums and Noise Limits

A historic venue is rarely just an event space. It is usually a functioning public institution or situated in a dense residential area.

Working Around the Public (MNAC): The MNAC has an excellent, large loading dock. However, build-up often happens while the museum is still open to the public. Therefore, we must implement strict safety cordons. Our crew operates silently and cleanly to avoid disturbing museum visitors.

Night Restrictions (Museu Marítim): The Maritime Museum offers much better ground-level access. However, it is located near residential zones. Consequently, loading and unloading during the night is strictly prohibited to avoid bothering the neighbors. Your production schedule must adapt to these daylight-only restrictions.

4. The Advantage of a Local Scenography Builder

When producing an event in a historic venue, you cannot rely on standard, bulky rental equipment shipped from across Europe. Doorways are narrow, and elevators are small.

You need custom-built solutions. With our own production workshops in both Barcelona and Madrid, we design and manufacture scenography specifically for these restrictive spaces. We pre-build the scenic elements in our facilities, bring them in manageable pieces, and assemble them swiftly on-site.

Summary: Protect the Heritage, Elevate the Event

Producing an unforgettable corporate event in a venue like the MNAC or Llotja de Mar requires deep local knowledge. Do not leave your logistics to chance.

In collaboration with PME Legend, we developed an Escape Game in a -15°C freeze box called 'PME Legend, The Coldest Escape'. Visitors put on a PME Legend jacket, have 5 minutes to escape, and experience how comfortably warm they stay while the clock ticks down.

Three freeze boxes will be touring PME Legend sales points in various countries in the coming period.

Thanks to Just Brands - Fashion & Retail for the pleasant collaboration!

Combine a meeting with team building and dinner? Yes we can! 💪🏻✨

Recently, we had the pleasure of handling a team day for Dela and Agidens at Landgoed235 just that little bit differently.

After the meeting and lunch, it was time to put the laptops aside for our MasterChef Experience.👩🏼‍🍳

In teams, the participants got to work in the kitchen themselves. Not just cooking, but collaborating, completing tasks, earning ingredients, and of course, trying to outdo the other teams. Ultimately, all the creations came together in one dinner. 🍝🌮🍰

It was great to see how the teams collaborated, got creative, and above all, had a lot of fun.

And perhaps that is what makes good team building so valuable: stepping out of the daily work environment for a while, experiencing something together, and getting to know each other in a different way.

Also in need of a team-building event and not afraid of a culinary challenge?🍴
