MPIGNY 30/30
Message from Our President
 

 

Hello MPIGNY! As the temperatures continue to drop and the leaves start to fall, we can officially say that Autumn has arrived in the Greater New York area! So why not warm up with a fantastic array of cocktails at our Annual Auction and Mixology event, next Tuesday, November 7, at the PlayStation Theater. Too cold to leave the office? We have our November education session on Friday, November 3, as a webinar that you can do from the comfort of your desk! More information on both events is below.

MPIGNY has a lot to look forward to, and a lot to be thankful for, as we approach the festive season, most importantly, our members. The Board of Directors and I look forward to the opportunity to see you at one of our upcoming events so we can thank you in person for making our chapter as great as it is and for continuing to be part of the MPIGNY family. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to any of us.

Here is what's happening with MPIGNY ...

Join MPIGNY from the comfort of your home or office on Friday, November 3 at 12 p.m. for an educational webinar while you Lunch & Learn about Difficult Contract Clauses!

Although performance clauses like attrition and cancellation are challenging, it is sometimes the other clauses that create the biggest challenges. And beware to the group that overlooks them! During this rebroadcast of a session from WEC 2017, learn how to address issues like indemnification, construction and remodeling, conflicting in-house groups, surcharges and fees, assignment, and more. This session will help prepare you for trends that are affecting meetings and, by extension, meeting contracts.

***This webinar is complimentary for all MPI Members: you will need to log in to your MPIWEB log in to receive complimentary participation***

The Past 30...

Autumn was in the air for those attending the After Six Mix at Fig & Olive in the heart of the trendy Meatpacking District on October 11. Attendees enjoyed delectable bites such as mushroom croquettes, manchego & fig crostini and zucchini carpaccio while sipping on cocktails and mingling in the warm and spacious bar area. Simon Lo of Simon Productions Photography captured some great moments during the evening.

Noteworthy Updates
Please join the MPIGNY CSR Committee in helping fellow New Yorkers stay warm this winter by donating coats to the Coat Drive.

The Coat Drive is a city-wide effort run by New York Cares which aims to collect 125,000 coats each year and distribute them to New Yorkers who need them most in the colder months. Any coat that can keep someone warm is greatly appreciated, but our highest demands are for children’s coats and extra-large men’s coats.

Donations can be made by bringing coats to the Holiday Party. Additional details to follow.
