OPENING QUOTE:

“We far too often as event professionals get into this line of work because we like to create great experiences. We might be great experience creators and that's awesome, but to be honest, experiences are a dime a dozen now that people can go after. But what you can do if you want to be successful as a planner or a supplier or whatever it may be, is if you can bring data into the game, you're going to get more chances to have conversations with the C suite of a company than you ever did before.”

SUMMARY:

This real-time data offers actionable insights that can help optimize budgets and elevate the overall attendee experience—making the future feel as exciting as science fiction!

The conversation also addresses crucial topics like data privacy and security, as well as strategies for leveraging data to inform long-term event planning, including lead generation, session management, and stakeholder satisfaction.
