Track record

# What we have already run

Kervan is a new name on an operation that is not new. These are ours. Most of them are larger and more complicated than a company retreat, which is rather the point.

Closed-group summit

### [JCI Autumn Summit, 2025 and 2026](https://kervanretreat.com/work/jci-autumn-summit)

Kemer · Two nights each · Around 200 people

Academy with registration

### Lala Academy

Three days · Registration, rooms and meeting on one contract

Registration revenue collected and held by us, hotel and meeting costs settled against it, and the balance transferred to the client once the event closed. Third-party accommodation requests ran through the same channel. The model suits an organisation that wants to run its own programme without standing up online registration, collection, room sales, hotel payment and delegate tracking as a separate operation beside it.

Model
:   Registration + rooms + meeting

Settlement
:   Net to client after costs

Payments
:   Collection and hotel settlement

Channel
:   Single operator

Grant-funded delivery

### EU-funded workshops and field programmes

Four workshops · Youth employment and community awareness

Each workshop planned for at least fifty people, with meeting space, technical systems, participant transfers, registration, field staff, catering, photography and video, social content, visibility materials, satisfaction surveys and participant documentation all specified before the first one ran — down to a defined deliverable of 100 high-resolution photographs and 10 short videos. On grant-funded work, running the event is half the job. The other half is producing the evidence that it was run to contract, and passing inspection on completeness, quality, timing and programme rules.

Format
:   Four workshops

Attendance
:   50+ each

Media
:   100 photos, 10 videos

Standard
:   Donor visibility and reporting
