Fast Future, the think tank that’s produced several studies of industry trends, is asking those who work in the meetings industry and those who attend business events to complete the latest Convention 2020 survey on the Future of Corporate and Association Business Events. The survey explores vital trends driving the future design of these business events and the implications for event strategies, financing, meeting design, delegate experience, use of social media, technology, and knowledge management. Share the link with colleagues who might be interested. Everyone who leaves an email address will receive a copy of the final report. The emerging findings will be presented at several industry events, including Imex Las Vegas, Oct. 11-13; the ICCA Congress in Leipzig, Germany, Oct. 22-26; and the EFAPCO Congress in Estoril, Portugal, Jan. 12-14, 2012. The survey closed on Nov. 30, 2011.
