The Best Social Media from the Events Industry
Today starts the UEFA Euro 2021 and celebrates the tournament’s 60th anniversary. Even if we're not football fans, Eventprofs, especially from Europe, will be keeping an eye out as all 11 host cities will welcome fans back to selected stadiums, albeit at reduced capacity. In times when we all miss hugs from friends and families, will we see gatherings and celebrations with no social distancing?
Now let's see the best social media content fresh from this week! DM me or send it to [email protected] if I've missed one.
So much positive energy here from Meg and great Event Tech Live topic regarding Accessibility of Events.
International Confex is upon us 22nd of June. Who's tuning in?
The shorted the better right? Let's avoid wasting everyone's time ok?
Very interesting question from Fab: who managed to get support from government or European grants for their business during covid times?
We hear much less people talking about Twitter Spaces compared to Clubhouse for some reason? How is your experience using it? Here's a good talk coming from Word of Mice related to our industry if you want to tune in!
Story telling is always very inspiring. Your remember when you were a kid asking your parent to tell you a story? Well this feeling is inside each of us and that's why we are captivated when you tell your audience how the story of your brand started!
Visibility is key for your brand and companies who are showing up physically today will definitely earn some market share! This competition will benefit event businesses.
C&IT has announced their A-list of event planners under 35 and many of the stars we're following have made it. Congrats for the hard work!

Interesting partnership to keep an eye on as we'll see improvements I'm sure!
I'm very curious to keep an eye on this and how/if it will trickle over to Microsoft. #eventprofs https://t.co/FQUGtpCqEl

The kid in me is thrilled, how awesome is it to broadcast from Disneyland Paris as a digital venue?

Great piece of advice for presentations: don't forget that readers are in the room but also on screens now in the hybrid events world!
If you speak or do any sort of presentations, PLEASE stop putting eleventy-billion tiny words on your slides. Blow up font size so the very back of the room (which includes the camera that's livestreaming to lots of squinting attendees) can easily read all slides. #eventprofs

EventProfs know the value of their work but if you ever need to convince someone outside of our industry, these numbers speak for themselves.

Being back to business is one thing but being profitable is another for both the Hospitality & Events sectors.
This is why we need restrictions lifting on 21st June without it our #hospitality sector cannot survive #SaveHospitality #SaveNightlfe https://t.co/pyP6qyo3Nt

Bad news for the Hyatt brand closing a 5* hotel in Mumbai because of COVID. Is this the beginning or the end?
Probably the first big closure notice by a global 5* chain in India - a reflection of how dire things are for #hospitality

Hyatt, ITC, Taj, Marriot room rates in Mumbai have collapsed to Rs 3-5k/night with breakfast. But where are the takers?#COVID19 pic.twitter.com/xjqupPO0yd

4-day-week for EventProfs, is this a possibility? Is this the future especially in Europe where healthy family-work balance is valued?
But is it ok for clients to make amendments at 2am for an event happening the same day and expecting you to deprive your whole team of sleep to meet their demand?
I'm just wondering in terms of covid safety, how do you desinfect sand? JK amazing sustainable venue!
