Endless Events

MARCH 29, 2021

A year ago, the events industry had no choice but to master the art of virtual events. As restrictions are slowly lifting and the worst is hopefully behind us, we can glimpse into the future of post-Covid events. Our hosts Will and Brandt are event industry experts, so believe them when they say that the next big industry standard is hybrid events.

Then the pandemic hit and tourism everywhere evaporated. As COVID-19 cases decline, vaccinations ramp up and travel restrictions are lifted worldwide, we predict that secondary city tourism will actually outperform visitation to the globe’s former first-tier destinations.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) does have advice for those attending and planning events, but your own state or municipality may have its own rules. However, post-COVID events still have a focus on being outdoors for 2021, although in many states you are able to hold small gatherings — they are just limited by capacity.

We encouraged them to engage in high-performing teams, and we rewarded them when they delivered massive results. The pandemic turned everything on its head and forced both employees and their business leaders to reevaluate budgets, re-examine workplaces, and re-prioritize just about everything related to work and home.
