The way we hold in-person events has naturally transformed over the past two years. Beyond the addition of comprehensive health and safety standards, the format of effective live gatherings has shifted, whether to engage attendees better, connect with both remote viewers and on-site participants, or offer more memorable in-person experiences that will make attendees’ travel more worthwhile. This session explores these trends and ways to innovate going forward. Our panel of experts provide actionable best practices and take audience questions throughout.
