Already during her time as managing board, Melanie von Graeve organised supervisory board meetings, general business meetings such as press conferences for almost ten years. All tasks –
including event preparation and postprocessing, organisation and accomplishment – cannot always be accomplished by the own internal staff. However, charging an external event agency, for
covering the requirements concerning event staff, often approves itself a financial burden. Since 2002 DKTS offers you a customtailored service for your respective need of event
staff. For this turnaround within the event branch, DKTS was distinguished by the Frankfurter Gründerpreis.
