All-in-one digital tool, comprehensive solutions for a seamless, engaging event

What kind of value are your live events offering? According to respondents in the Encore Winter 2022 Planner Pulse Report, networking and relationship building are the main benefits of their events (74 percent). Connecting individuals and staff to an organization’s purpose, vision, and values is stated by 61% of respondents; chances for professional growth, education, and training are mentioned by an equal percentage. It can be advantageous for meeting planners as well as participants to maximize return on these three areas.

Of course, creating meetings and events that effectively engage audiences also requires a thorough awareness of the industry landscape. One pattern that keeps coming up? Three out of five planners surveyed for the Encore Winter 2022 Planner Pulse anticipate an increase in event attendance of more than 10 percent, indicating the continued high demand for in-person events. Encouraging these audiences to come back the following year will be the task.

Meeting and event planners are committed to providing attendees with meaningful experiences that have definite benefits in order to achieve this goal. Attendees will be satisfied and more likely to return if they believe your conference provided a seamless and streamlined experience, assisted them in expanding their networks, helped them connect with the organization, and provided them with valuable insights.

It can be challenging to find resources that will both connect and engage attendees during in-person events and help them be ready for them. When gatherings are held in person, many of the digital gadgets that people used during the pandemic malfunction. Also, a quarterly increase in this event style is anticipated, per the Winter 2022 Planner Pulse Report.
