O 1­ 2 September­z October­2019


One conference venue that is generating a lot of buzz in the Greater Philadelphia area is the new Franklin Conference Center at Drexelbrook Special Event Center and Hotel in Drexel Hill, PA.


“There is so much excitement at Drexelbrook since we opened our new Franklin Conference Center,” explains Domenick Savino, CPCE, Drexelbrook’s CEO. “We converted what was a large open social event room to three breakout rooms and a large boardroom seating up to 28 guests. All rooms have full audio-visual capability with high-speed Internet access, LED projectors, sound and full wall screens. In addition, we added the ‘Franklin Café,’ which is available for all-day self-service that includes coffee, beverages, breakfast pastries, snacks and energy foods.”


The cafe is included as part of the “Spend the Day” meeting expe- rience available at Drexelbrook. To encourage socializing, the Stu- dio and Independence lounges also were added, complete with soft seating, monitors, high-tops and LED lighting. “It’s a great way to collaborate after general sessions,” notes Savino.


“Our meeting space is very flexible,” he continues. “We host meet- ings from 8 to 1,200 guests in a variety of ways. Of course, it be- gins with our complimentary parking for over 600 vehicles and proximity to public transportation. So far, we have hosted indus- trial, municipal and trade shows of all sizes. Our Grand Ballroom can hold up to a hundred 10-foot by 10-foot exhibit booths, and our participants love the fact our ballroom backs our loading dock, so it is very easy access.”
