How comfortable are you as an event planner with the latest roster of technology for events? Are you embracing digital venue mapping and tapping into augmented reality for event entertainment? Or are you still clinging to paper to-do lists and traditional methods of engagement?
There’s no right or wrong answer to event planning. It’s an entirely creative process that you’ve mastered with the confidence to deliver memorable experiences and client results every time. But if you’re not fully leveraging the event technology out there, you’re likely doing things the hard way and using more of your valuable time than you need to be using.
Today, we’re highlighting the role of technology in modern event planning. You don’t have to adopt all of these tools and trends, but getting comfortable with just one of them could be a game changer for your business.

It’s a tech trend you can’t afford to ignore - especially in today’s digitally connected world.

Say goodbye to sticky notes and clipboards. Get your highly valuable time back with streamlined logistics, marketing, and business applications as part of today’s event management software platforms.
Artificial Intelligence and Event Data
Don’t be afraid of AI. Nearly every digital app and platform uses it in some fashion to automate data or create lightning-fast connections. You can be using it for your event business, too. Artificial intelligence and data analytics empower event planners to gain invaluable insights into attendee preferences and behaviors, enabling them to tailor experiences with unprecedented precision.
