How has 2020 changed the way event companies will operate in the future?

Having spent over a decade in events, working for global Confex organisers as well as growing start-ups, I’ve been gripped by the effects 2020 has wrought on the industry. With as many as four in five event organisers forecast to fold by February 2021, the pressure is on like never
