Join TSNN’s Complimentary Webinar: Planner & Event Tech Intervention!

September 21, 2021

Technology and live event professionals seem to come from two different worlds. One is comfortable pivoting, disrupting and scaling, while the other focuses more on human interaction, creativity and hospitality to build impactful live experiences. But with the ever-increasing crossover of technology into the events space, both parties will be joined at the hip moving forward as event clients demand more data proofs, ROI and results. 

This “new normal” in the events industry begs the question: How can event planners and technology providers understand each other better in order to work more harmoniously and achieve higher goals? It starts here with a frank and transparent conversation designed to provide tangible takeaways that everyone can implement immediately. 

Tune in to TSNN’s free webinar, Planner & Event Tech Intervention, on Tuesday, Sept. 28, from 12-12:45 p.m. ET! 

Moderated by Dahlia El Gazzar, Tech Evangelist + Idea Igniter at DAHLIA+Agency, and featuring speakers Nicole Peck, Vice President of Marketing, Global Events at IDG (International Data Group) and Nick Borelli, Director of Marketing Growth at AllSeated, this webinar will aim to debunk myths, break barriers and help improve communication between planners and event technology providers.

In this session, attendees will learn:

  • Where tech and event pros are coming from and how to collaborate more effectively
  • How to transition a tech provider into a tech partner
  • Where event technology is going in the future

“This is an important topic and conversation to continue having because the event tech landscape is not what will make the events succeed or fail, it’s the conversation and relationship that will make the difference,” El Gazzar said. “Now more than ever we are asked to exploit the chaos we are in, up our game and be as agile as ever, and you can’t do any of that without understanding how to strengthen the synergy with you and your tech partners.”
