βFireside Chat: Practical AI for Event Professionals
βBehind the Experience Collective β Monthly Series ποΈ Wednesday, 10 June 2026 β° 4:00 PM (GMT+1) π Live online
βAI has moved from buzzword to backstage crew member β and for event professionals, the real question isn't whether to use it, but where it actually earns its place in your workflow.
βThis month's fireside chat brings two leading voices in the events community together for an honest, practical conversation about the tools, prompts and habits that are already changing the way we work β and the ones that aren't worth your time.
βWhat we'll dig into
ββ How event professionals are using AI today to reclaim hours from briefs, recaps, agendas, attendee comms and the long tail of admin β Smarter, faster reporting β turning event data into stories sponsors and stakeholders actually read β Scaling operations without scaling headcount β what AI makes genuinely possible, and what it doesn't β A lighter look at the experience side: where AI is starting to enhance the attendee and delegate journey, from personalisation to in-event interaction β Live Q&A β bring the messiest part of your workflow
