The Best Social Media from the Events Industry
Can you believe we are almost half way through the year? It's June already, where did all those months go? June is also Pride Month and all brands are already showing up rainbow colours! What are you doing for the LGBTQ+ community yourself?
Now let's see the rainbows & inclusive social media content fresh from this week! DM me or send it to [email protected] if I've missed one.
Are you certified? Would you say this money & time investment was worth the knowledge and possible income reach from it?

ISE: Integrated Systems Europe happened this week for the very first time in Barcelona as it was previously taking place in Amsterdam. Do I need to specify this tradeshow was hybrid? There is ISE Digital with VOD on demand and there will be ISE London (23-24 June). Another tradesow comeback success story, keep them coming!

From a legal standpoint, the advice is: stay broad on restrictions. Great conversation on Twitter with #TheEventVaxDebate.
The lawyer from #twineTalks recommended that #eventprofs keep restrictions broad as possible. So not just vaccination status, potentially ask for rapid test results, proof of having recovered from Covid, etc. The more broad, the better from a legal perspective. #TheEventVaxDebate https://t.co/OzOQAQ18RT

For the past 15 months, we created a strong, resilient & loving community in the events & hospitality industry. Yet it's only the starting point of our growth, let's welcome everyone!
I’ve been producing events for nearly 10 years.

Virtual reality was for many scary a few years back but now it's everywhere. How will you integrate this into your live events? How will this affect your budget, engagement, networking?
A recent study shows #VR's use has been increasing for attending #live #events such as music #concerts, #meditation, shopping, attending #work-related meetings or school #classes

Las Vegas is getting booked up again and I have a feeling EventProfs will be checking what the gaming industry is up to 🧐
The @AmericanGaming and @ReedExpositions announced that @G2Eshows - the gaming industry's largest conference and tradeshow - will return to Las Vegas Oct 4-7 at the @SandsExpo The show was canceled last year due to the pandemic

We will never repeat it enough, we can do more to be sustainable!
Can we actually teach & train our clients to be better?
Save the date: September 3rd, 2021. Here comes the hybrid event from the MICE GURU: The Digital Disruptor. Do you know what's #emocurrency?
Diversity will have a place every week at Akommo & in the Power Post because we know society still has a long road ahead to be truely inclusive. There are many resources you can use to make sure you're not just rainbow/green/yellow/black-washing for marketing purpose!
#GED2021, on June 2nd we celebrated Global Exhibition Day. We miss seeing those smiling faces at tradeshows!
Being an event planner you have to stay informed about new trends and updated local situation to make the best decision for your guests & team. In Europe things are easing up but this one will still be virtual:
