Event planning and management is still growing and evolving as an industry.

These figures aren’t surprising thanks to increased demand for in-person events in recent months as well as a rise in hybrid setups that incorporate both physical and virtual spaces.

I love my clients, but some have a special place in my heart — those who generously give me feedback. All the conferences I design and facilitate have a time and place for participants to share their experiences. But most clients don’t give me post-event feedback about my work or the event. And that’s okay. After all, feedback benefits me, and it takes time and effort for a client to articulate clear feedback.

Many of the industry’s rules fly out of the window when it comes to activating at Cannes Lions. Intimate interactions and dwell time are prioritized over throughput. Major risks are rewarded. And in some cases, earning and keeping the attention of the innovative, c-suite-level advertisers and marketers in attendance poses a greater challenge than sticking to the budget (this is an event hosted along the French Riviera, after all).
