Programme
This year’s Congress will explore how organisations are maintaining momentum, making confident decisions and identifying new opportunities in an increasingly complex and unpredictable environment. As uncertainty becomes a constant, leaders must balance resilience with agility - strengthening relationships, deepening engagement and delivering value in a year-round environment.
Alongside responding to disruption, the Congress will examine how the industry is preparing for what comes next - from evolving business and revenue models beyond traditional space-led approaches, to creating more immersive, experience-led formats that meet rising audience expectations. It will also address how organisations are embedding sustainability as a core priority, ensuring long-term impact and responsible growth across the exhibition's ecosystem.
Attendees will gain practical insight from organisations across the exhibitions industry and adjacent sectors facing similar challenges, exploring how they are strengthening resilience, leveraging technology, AI and data, and reimagining strategies to deliver more engaging, trusted and sustainable experiences in a rapidly changing world.
