When it comes to organising a successful event, finding the right venue is usually number one on the agenda. Whether it’s a birthday party for the little person in your life, the celebration for a family wedding, or space for a sporting group to meet; the act of bringing people together is what life is all about.
CGU Insurance is proud to support Vennu (www.vennu.net), an exciting new platform that’s all about connecting people with unique community spaces, all for the good of the community.
How does it work?
Vennu, at its heart, is a sharing economy platform. In the same way Uber brings people and car rides together or Airbnb brings accommodation and travellers together, Vennu brings community spaces (hosts) and people (guests) together through an easy to use digital marketplace.
According to new research, two thirds of Aussies currently spend and earn money through the share economy, with over an estimated billion dollars in growth in the past two years alone.
Right now, there are over 100,000 unique community spaces available for events across Australia. But they’re often underused because of complex booking systems and the need to contact individual councils or associations for access and enquiries.
Find the right venue for you
Vennu effortlessly brings together people who need spaces and the local communities that HAVE these spaces. It’s a website where you can search and book venues, based on your needs in a chosen location.
It connects people with the perfect property and it helps venues easily list, market and manage their space, which means more revenue goes back into local resources – genius!
Every booking includes optional cover for public liability insurance with CGU Insurance up to $10 Million*. One less thing to do when planning your event.
CGU Insurance has long been a supporter of local councils and small business and believes firmly in getting behind initiatives like Vennu, that join people and businesses within their community.
