Next Generation Leadership Grant

2024 Theme: AI’s impact on exhibitions

The mission for the 2024 Group of Next Generation Leaders is to assess the strategic and operational potentials that the rise of Artificial Intelligence has for the exhibitions and business events industry. 

Be part of the change in our industry. Our exhibition industry is always changing: The marketplaces we build and operate are accelerators for all the industries we work in, for and with – and our marketplaces evolve and change in line with the industries we serve.

Exhibitions and business events drive business growth, create & foster connections, and drive innovation. Our industry facilitates these ecosystems and developments.

Industries are fueled by their communities of professionals – the people within each sector. As accelerators and connectors, it is our job to gather industries together and listen and feel the pulse of the trends and changes in a sector. We can also apply what we learn and observe there in the exhibitions and events sector.
