IAEE Asia Council Presents:  The New World Post COVID-19:  How Innovation & Technology Transformation Will Accelerate the Trade Show Industry

The COVID-19 pandemic is having an unprecedented effect on the global exhibition and events industry impacting businesses, workers, and global supply chains. Organizations are focusing on being predictive and proactive with their decisions to preserve continuity.

As the pandemic continues, businesses and organizations, cities and countries, are in various stages of crisis response and recovery. Businesses are cautiously beginning recovery in various global regions in Asia. Regardless of the stage, knowledge and lessons learned are valuable to share. With this being said, given today’s state of affairs, many are going virtual or considering virtual with no choice.  NOT as a substitute for face to face, but as a way to keep business continuity, provide learning and marketplace experiences, support industry community and help move our events industry forward.

Hear from senior thought leaders in on updates from their regions, economic impact forecasts, what measures have been taken to stay resilient and ways to continue to encourage and support the full recovery of the global industry.

This webinar will be made available to members and non-members.
