The cancellation of in-person meetings has forced association meeting planners to tear up the script in the last 18 months. But what is going to happen next?
 
AMI has curated a 90-minute session for The Meetings Show at 1:50pm on October 1st titled AMI Summit: Future of association meetings and the potential of online communities. This session has limited spots, and only 23 places are still available. Once your registration is complete, please secure your spot via our virtual platform - Swapcard. You will receive your login details for Swapcard within the next week.

The session consists of two parts:

During the first part of this session, we’ll discuss the questions most asked about the future of association meetings.
  • What will delegates want? 
  • Do in-person experiences still matter, or is virtual a suitable alternative? 
  • What are the factors that will decide how – and why - we meet?
We will also discuss the role online communities have to play in making meetings a more engaging and meaningful experience for attendees.
During the second part of the session, delegates will join a breakout room to discuss one of the following topics:
 
Solution-based meetings: How can we make meetings more impactful and goal-orientated? How can we justify our in-person meetings in a world of instant digital communication and climate change?
 
Accessibility: By forcing associations to go digital, the pandemic introduced associations to a massive new audience. How can associations ensure they don’t lose this new audience? Should attendance criteria change to make meetings more inclusive?
Sustainability: How can associations demonstrate the value of in-person meetings while minimising the environmental impact of their event portfolio?
 
Beginning, middle and…? Event planners are now building online communities around events, which can enhance the meeting experience - what are the main pros and cons of this strategy?
 
Is hybrid the answer? Can hybrid make associations meetings more accessible and sustainable? Or is the format just way too complicated and expensive for most organisations?
Join us for this must-attend summit taking place virtually at The Meetings Show!
