Looking for a seminar venue in Oirschot for a business event featuring speakers, presentations and knowledge sharing? At KOMAEN, you can organise a seminar with a programme focused on your subject matter. Whether you are hosting an industry seminar, an information session for business contacts or an event for employees, the venue offers space to welcome participants and combine presentations with questions, discussions and breaks.
When organising a seminar, group size, visibility of the speaker and the flow of the programme are important considerations. KOMAEN has several rooms, including Buitenzicht and De Schouw, which can be arranged in theatre-style, cabaret-style or other suitable layouts depending on the number of participants. This allows you to adapt the space to a programme in which attendees mainly listen, actively contribute or discuss topics together around a table.
In addition to the room layout, you can plan the welcome, presentation equipment and refreshments for your participants. This might include coffee and tea on arrival, a break between speakers or lunch together. The different meeting rooms at KOMAEN offer options for arranging the space and facilities around the programme, the number of participants and the way you want to organise your seminar.

A seminar venue for knowledge sharing and business presentations
A seminar is an event where participants come together to gain knowledge, discuss developments or exchange information. A presentation by one or more speakers often forms the basis of the programme, supported by questions and discussions.
At KOMAEN in Oirschot, you can choose a room that suits this format. Whether participants mainly listen or actively contribute to a discussion will help determine the most suitable seating arrangement.
When choosing a venue, it therefore makes sense to establish the programme first. The number of participants, level of interaction and time available can then guide the room layout.
A seminar programme with time for speakers and questions
A seminar usually consists of several related sessions. As well as presentations, it is important to allow time for questions, changes between speakers and breaks.
The examples below show how an afternoon seminar or a longer event could be organised.
Please note: these are illustrative programmes, not fixed packages. Final timings and the availability of rooms, equipment and catering will be agreed when booking.
For seminars with several speakers, it is sensible to allow enough time between presentations. This gives speakers the opportunity to change presentation materials and prepare for their sessions without immediately delaying the programme.
A seminar room where the audience can follow the speaker
The relationship between speaker and audience is an important part of a seminar. Participants need to be able to see the presentation materials and hear the speaker clearly. The room layout and technical preparation therefore deserve particular attention.
The organiser is responsible for the seminar content, speakers and programme management. KOMAEN provides the space and available facilities, which can be discussed and arranged in advance.
Which room is suitable for your seminar?
For a seminar where participants listen to presentations together, Buitenzicht and De Schouw are the main options. Both rooms can be arranged with theatre-style or cabaret-style seating.
Buitenzicht is a 60 m² room with natural daylight, a private terrace and a bar. It can accommodate up to 40 people in theatre-style seating or 35 in a cabaret-style layout, allowing participants to sit together at smaller tables.
De Schouw is suitable for seminars with a larger audience. The room accommodates up to 100 people in theatre-style seating or 75 in a cabaret-style layout. It also has a private terrace, a bar and windows overlooking the Pitch&Putt golf course.
For a smaller seminar where participants sit together around a table, 't Kabinet may also be suitable. This room accommodates 5 to 15 people and has a fixed boardroom-style layout.
If more than one room is required, Buitenzicht and De Schouw can be combined. The arrangement will depend on the number of participants and how the spaces will be used during the programme.
Theatre-style seating or an interactive seminar layout?
The most suitable seminar room layout depends on the number of participants and what they will be doing during the programme. A presentation where everyone mainly listens may require a different arrangement from a seminar involving regular group discussions.
Maximum capacity varies by room and seating arrangement. When organising a seminar with a seated audience, it is therefore important to consider the actual seating capacity rather than only the room's overall maximum capacity.
Arrange presentation equipment in advance
When preparing a seminar, it is useful to establish which equipment the speakers will need. Buitenzicht and De Schouw have sound systems and wireless microphones. Presentation screens are also available for an additional rental fee.
If additional audiovisual equipment is required, it can be discussed whether this needs to be hired externally. Not every technical requirement can be met using the standard equipment available at the venue.
Preparing speakers and presentations
A seminar involving multiple speakers benefits from clear arrangements concerning the room and equipment. Identifying each speaker's requirements in advance helps avoid confusion when it is time for a presentation to begin.
The organiser remains responsible for the seminar programme and providing the presentation materials. When booking, the available facilities and any additional technical requirements can be discussed with KOMAEN.
Welcome, breaks and catering during your seminar
For a programme focused on presentations and information sharing, it is useful to allow time for breaks between sessions. Participants can enjoy a drink, discuss questions with one another or prepare for the next topic.
As KOMAEN has its own catering facilities, the various food and drink options can be combined with the room booking. Available arrangements depend on factors such as group size and the preferred programme.
