Everyone thinks about how AI will change the future. We`re thinking of how it will transform events...
What people forget is the opposite: what won`t change.
What are the things our customers will always want? For us, it`s seamless experiences that foster genuine connections.
As the world changes at a rapid pace, it`s important to recognize your organization`s north stars, and not lose sight of them.

Today, we’re highlighting Ari Mena, one of the many talented people behind the experiences we create. ✨
From Kauai to Denver, Ari knows that preparation makes all the difference, especially in an industry where no two days look the same.
Ari’s advice for those starting out in hospitality and events: Get comfortable with the unknown. Challenges are inevitable, but each one brings new opportunities to grow, adapt, and push your skills further.
It`s this mindset that helps our teams navigate curveballs and continue delivering a seamless experience. Thank you, Ari!

We’re excited to see Steph Grey taking the stage at the 2026 @pharma_forum to share insights on a topic that’s becoming increasingly important across the life sciences meetings industry: proving event ROI.
Her session, “Case Study: Leveraging Procurement to Prove Pharma Event ROI,” explores how procurement can move beyond budget oversight to become a strategic partner in proving measurable business impact from events.
In highly regulated environments like pharma, connecting event execution to measurable outcomes requires the right structure, data access, and reporting frameworks. Stephanie will introduce a practical four-layer Event ROI Data Framework designed to help organizations measure value across spend, compliance, performance outcomes, and executive reporting.

The need for connection is more prevalent than ever for businesses, and events will be the key to bringing people together.
As technology advances, we are more connected than ever on social media and other platforms, but society as a whole feels more alone. Somewhere along the way, we lost the script on in-person connection.
Events can be the catalyst that bridges the gap between people at your organization. Studies show that employees who are friends with their co-workers tend to be happier and more productive. Use events as a way to foster a working culture that really brings people together.
`Cause right now that is what the world needs more than ever.

What will the future of networking look like at events?
Picture this: engineered matchmaking that connects people with individuals they didn`t know they needed. Dynamic badges that flash mutual interests before the first handshake. Scavenger hunts designed not for prizes, but for strategic introductions. All occurring in spaces that physically guide competitors into collaborative conversations.
We`re calling it Engineered Serendipity: the future of B2B event networking.
We predict the future of networking at events will be centered around purpose-built environments where connection isn`t optional, it’s woven into every keynote, every break, every square foot of floor space.
The question isn`t if events will evolve. It`s whether you`re designing for what`s next.
How do you think technology will revolutionize events?

Digital connection is everywhere, but meaningful connection is increasingly rare.
This reality is reshaping how events are designed, shifting the focus toward trust, presence, and shared experience. For event leaders, this means rethinking success metrics and designing moments that drive authenticity rather than just attendance.
Our 2026 trends report breaks down how attendee expectations are changing, and what event leaders can do next.

Curious to learn more about what this means for the future of events and how you can respond?

We’re excited to share that two of our team members will be taking the stage at MPI New England Chapter’s Educational Institute this Tuesday 🎤✨
Liz Hunt will present Emotional Intelligence for Event Professionals, diving into why EI is the secret ingredient behind exceptional event leadership. From managing stress and high expectations to navigating tough conversations, Liz will explore how understanding your emotional triggers can elevate decision-making, sharpen communication, and build the resilience today’s event professionals need to thrive.
Chris Luebke will lead Gen Z Matters (They Don’t Care About the Events from Yesteryear) — a fast-moving session unpacking how Gen Z is reshaping expectations around events and incentives. He’ll explore what this generation values (authenticity, co-creation, and purpose), what turns them off, and how to adapt your programs without leaving anyone behind. Attendees will walk away with practical ways to design experiences that feel relevant, energizing, and worth talking about.
