When we hear the words “conference room,” our response is rarely positive. It conjures up a windowless, airless room with too many chairs huddled around a table, half-empty cups of coffee, and a balky, clunky phone that looks like an alien spaceship in the center of it all.
But not all of them look so grim. In fact, we found a few in homes currently for sale where you might actually look forward to dialing in a few of your closest friends.
And we took our inspiration for impromptu meeting places straight from the top. President Donald Trump recently grabbed headlines by holding a seat-of-the-pants security briefing well outside the confines of the White House. Namely, he was in an open-air dining room at his weekend digs, Mar-a-Lago.
While it may be the “Southern White House,” a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility—or SCIF—it isn’t. Thrilled diners looked on and even posted photos of POTUS in action as he consulted with senior staff and his Japanese counterpart, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, about their joint response to North Korea.
If dinner theater doesn’t sound appetizing for your next board meeting, you should consider one of these incredible spreads equipped with conference rooms. Set up the slides and dial in to our presentation of private conference facilities.
