Leadership summits and executive off-sites in Seoul
Seoul Calling plans and produces leadership summits, executive off-sites and board meetings in Seoul for international companies. One English-speaking team handles the venue, production, interpretation, hospitality and programme, so your leadership team can focus on the agenda.
A leadership event is small, senior and visible. Every transfer, every room and every dinner reflects on the people who organised it. We have over 15 years of production experience and work in English and Korean, so nothing is lost between your team and Korean venues and suppliers.
What we produce
Asia-Pacific and global leadership summits
Executive off-sites and strategy sessions
Board meetings and annual general meetings
Senior leadership retreats
Partner and customer executive forums
Venues that feel like Seoul
We match the room to the conversation:
Traditional hanok venues in Bukchon and Seochon, for leadership sessions and dinners for up to 100
Riverside venues on the Han River, for summits and evening events with a view of the city
Five-star hotel ballrooms and private rooms in Gwanghwamun and Gangnam, when the group is also staying on site
Seongsu creative spaces, for sessions that should feel close to Seoul’s design scene
For more options and capacities, see our guide to the best conference venues in Seoul by group size.
Everything in-house
Interpretation, hybrid streaming, AV and catering are run by our own team, not passed on to subcontractors. Remote leaders can join live, and Korean-speaking guests and speakers are fully included.
More than the agenda
The best leadership summits use the city. We add sessions that give your leaders a first-hand view of Korea:
Retail safaris through Seongsu, Hannam and Dosan, for teams that want to see how Korean consumers and brands move
Hanok dinners and temple stays, for time away from the meeting room
Korean cooking classes and K-culture workshops, for team time that people remember
For longer programmes, see our corporate retreats and incentive trips.
Summits across Korea
Beyond Seoul, we produce leadership events in Busan, Jeju, Gangwon (Gangneung and Pyeongchang), Incheon, Gwangju and Daegu.
How far ahead to plan
Contact us 4–8 weeks ahead for smaller executive meetings and 10–16 weeks ahead for larger summits. Spring and autumn fill first.
