They’re all carefully grouped according to a taxonomy we created to help you get your head around what over 600 companies in this industry have to offer to help make your events a huge success.

What is a Platform?

Each month, we gather for an hour to share the latest thinking about events and strategies. We invite the top luminaries from all parts of the industry to discuss everything from digital IP to engagement strategies, to the newest AI powered tools and the metaverse. With ample time for networking built into the program, participants get to meet and share their ideas.

Our CommunitySpeaks

One of the stand-out qualities I’ve noticed in the VEG events is that those who attend are among the event industry’s long-standing power players, but in no way hold up an ‘old guard’ attitude.
