The meetings business is in the midst of an exciting revolution: The days of dreary, —analog events are thankfully coming to a close, as tech solutions supercharge the attendee experience. Meetings are quickly becoming more engaging, more interesting, and more valuable as tech solutions supercharge the attendee experience.

For event professionals, the tech revolution represents incredible opportunities. Planning meetings will get easier — as will organizing logistics and managing day-of-event attendee experience. Creativity can thrive when augmented reality, live question and answer sessions, digital heat maps, and other advanced solutions become not just workable but affordable. Venues are integrating new sci-fi–style tools, including beacon technology and 3-D visualizations that make wayfinding easier.
