BizBash Launches ‘Leadership Summit’ to Map Future of the Events and Meetings Industry

BizBash will host 30 event industry leaders in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for its inaugural Leadership Summit.

BizBash, the largest media company dedicated to “experience creators” of all types, is launching a think tank to help map the future of the industry. Thirty executives from experiential agencies, event technology companies and corporate brands will participate in this leadership retreat, which is a major component of the BizBash Live in Puerto Rico experience being held in San Juan, Puerto Rico, from May 22-24, 2022. The highly curated gathering will be the only place where these experience creators will meet in person to exchange ideas, share knowledge and learn from one another. BizBash founder and chairman David Adler will moderate the discussion, which will become the basis for research and publications produced by BizBash to be shared to help guide the entire industry. Topics will include:

  • The Digital Future 
  • The Engagement Dilemma
  • The New Partnership Paradigm
  • The Best Methods to Work with C-Suite Executives

“The purpose of BizBash is to allow creators to peek over the fence to see what others are doing,” said Adler. “This think tank creates an interactive approach for a giant mash-up of the best of all worlds so that creators build on each other's creativity and insights. We are entering a new era of events, and if done correctly, the blending of irreplaceable in-person gatherings with innovative technology and inspiring event design will shape a better way of gathering.” In addition to creative networking opportunities and educational components, the Leadership Summit will also include a preview of best practices and business processes to optimize meetings and events that will become the foundation for creating can’t-miss gatherings. “This think tank will be a breeding ground for groundbreaking ideas that will no doubt shape how all kinds of events are produced,” said

BizBash president Matt Johnson.The Leadership Summit is one of the many important steps BizBash is taking to reinvigorate events alongside the entire industry. Another initiative recently put in place, for example, is the BizBash Hosted Buyer Experience. Through this program, 300 high-level event organizers and marketers will travel with all expenses paid to BizBash’s 2022 live events to meet with the industry’s leading experiential and event technology vendors via one-on-one appointments. On-site, a powerful AI-based matching solution will determine the optimal one-on-one networking opportunities for hosted buyers to help each event producer reach new heights in their network.
