Organizations are making tough decisions about how to–or even whether to–move forward with their upcoming conferences and expos. While some have made the decision to cancel their f2f events, many others are forging ahead. Learn what worked and what didn’t from two event pros who held major in-person conferences in late August and early September, from Covid compliance to the on-site vibe.
They will share the challenges they overcame or didn’t anticipate, and how their experiences will shape future live events.  Send your questions in advance to lblock@velvetchainsaw.com. We’ll take plenty of questions live as well.
