Hosted by the Virtual Events Institute

The explosion of virtual events in a very short space of time, has created a wealth of challenges for planners and organizers. With two worlds colliding, the physical and the digital, now is the time to take a strategic look at the new functions and roles that are emerging to tackle this important shift in the events industry. And it’s not just individual roles that are changing, but also new team structures are emerging, there are internal reorganizations, plus a surge in upskilling and training. We have put together a panel of experts to discuss the whole talent scenario, the impact on your teams and organizations, the new roles and expectations in the freelance market, where will agencies fit in and above all, what do we need to do to plan for the future?
