Marketing - Tourism & Travel / eventos corporativos | | Spanish term or phrase: grupos cerrados | Una empresa de viajes que ofrece organizar eventos corporativos. Quizás no sea “closed groups” ya que en Internet no lo veo aplicado a corporaciones.¿será tal vez close/d corporations? Aquí el contexto:
Organización de eventos corporativos: desde lanzamientos de productos, jornadas de trabajo, congresos Oficiamos de coordinadores locales en todo lo referente a la organización de eventos privados, convenciones institucionales y *manejo de grupos cerrados*. |

| | the organization of private events and groups, and of organizational conventions. | Explanation:
I think that the original was carelessly drafted, and that "eventos privados" and "grupos cerrados" refers to the same thing. This is my suggestion for resolving the redundancy, and thus improving on the original.
Sometimes you can wrack your brains over issues like this until you realize that the problem is with a sloppily written original text.
I do not know that this is the case here, but I strongly suspect that it is. If not, I would challenge other responders to meaningful differentiate between the two terms. We can then see if whatever solutions thus generated are more plausible than what I am suggesting.
Suerte.

CORRECTION:
the coordination of private events and groups, and of organizational conventions.
[to avoid ugly repetition of "organization....organizational."

Or, possibly, even "large conventions."
I don't think that "institucional" has any specific meaning here, and that the events in question could be corporate or professional in nature, or perhaps those of non-profit entities.

Stated otherwise, I believe that the "eventos privados" and "grupos cerrados" belong to one and the same semantic unit. |

I think "exclusive groups" might cover it :)
