Are today’s practices still up to date? Or is it time to discuss new solutions? These are the questions we’d like address in our latest innovation challenge on the open innovation platform Response Room. We’re starting off with a short survey to determine the status quo.

The results of the latest Future Meeting Space (FMS) research on the ‘Future Role and Purpose of Business Events‘ exemplify this aspect very clearly when looking at the evolving job and skills profiles of event professionals. Our new – hybrid – event world will bring a lot of change but, more importantly, also exciting opportunities to learn and grow.
