As the world went into several lockdowns over the past year, many professionals had to reconsider the way they approached events. Under those circumstances, social functions with hundreds of attendees were no longer an option. Event managers consequently used their talents in the online world rather than in real life.
Although this may be true, events are still as relevant as ever for communications. As we slowly but undoubtedly enter a post-Covid 19 world, it is necessary to think about how to create and manage events again. They will most likely look different than what we were used to. For example, a staggering 97% of event marketers believe we will see more hybrid events in the future, and want to invest in virtual resources.
Whether you are taking your first steps as an event marketer or want a deeper insight into the future of PR functions, this course in creating amazing events is for you.
