Facilitating Curated Event Experiences: How Thinking Small Delivers Big Returns
In this session, you’ll learn how to satisfy the growing appetite for attendee experiences that are customized and curated. We’ll discuss how to facilitate the formation of smaller interest groups within larger events that create a sense of connection and community that today’s attendees crave. We’ll also explore ways to personalize marketing campaigns, reduce friction throughout the attendee journey, ideate more compelling event content and better survey attendees about their experience – all with the intent of (cost-effectively) serving up a more contextual experience that drives engagement and loyalty.
