1100-1120 Small Changes, Big Inclusion
Captions, transcripts, multi-language access, mobility considerations…Accessibility is often the first thing cut when budgets tighten, yet the fixes that matter most are rarely the expensive ones. This discussion digs into the small, affordable changes that make the biggest difference for inclusion, and challenges planners to honestly assess who their content actually reaches versus who they assume it reaches.

1130-1150 MESA Group Hosted Buyer Presentation (Closed Group Presentation): A Discovery Journey of Event Services and Technologies for Your Next Event (Part One)
1200-1220 Your Event Trends Questions Answered, Micro to Macro
Following the launch of the IBTM World Trends Report 27, this is your chance to ask questions about industry trends. What are the micro and macro trends that will affect how your events look next year and over the next five years? Spanning demographics, human experience, AI, the move from smart to dumb, and the big themes of the report.
Alistair Turner, Managing Director, EIGHT PR & Marketing
1230-1250 Event content intelligence for attendees, during and after the event
Most AI at events stops at captions. What would attendees find useful while a session is still running? Which post-event insights or assets do they actually use? This campfire invites organisers to compare experiences with live takeaways, summaries, speaker quotes, and audience questions, then explore how insights across sessions might extend the conversation after the event.
