Conferences, workshops, and convenings woven with care.
Yarn’s MICE Desk helps organisations plan and manage meetings, workshops, conferences, trainings, donor roundtables, and institutional events in Nepal. We coordinate the practical details — venues, delegate travel, accommodation, transfers, visas, catering, on-site support, and reporting — while keeping participant care at the centre.
MICE is the industry acronym, but we see something more human: people gathering to learn, decide, recover, align, celebrate, and move work forward.
A good convening is not just a room, a projector, and a schedule. It is a temporary home for trust, strategy, learning, and shared purpose.
Yarn helps organisations create gatherings where logistics feel calm, participants feel cared for, and teams can focus on the purpose of being together. We support both the visible and invisible work of convening: the venue, the food, the arrival plan, the accessibility needs, the rooming list, the late-night change, and the quiet moment of care that makes people feel held.
People first. Logistics made lighter.
Event platforms can manage registrations. Spreadsheets can track rooming lists. But real gatherings need people who notice the gaps.
Yarn helps manage late arrivals, shifting dietary needs, visa delays, speaker changes, accessibility limits, cultural protocol, weather disruptions, supplier coordination, and last-minute adjustments.
Because of this high-touch approach, we manage a select number of events each year. You host intentionally; we execute carefully.
