2022 Skift Live Year in Review

Last year with travel and in-person gatherings beginning to slowly reconvene post-pandemic, we hit the ground running with in-person, online, and hybrid events. We even added two BRAND NEW events in 2022 – Future of Lodging Forum and Skift Global Forum East – to the Skift Live lineup, and hosted a very successful Aviation Forum, which was in-person in Dallas for the first time.

Let’s take a look at Skift Events in 2022 by the numbers. We hosted 8 events in-person and online, in 3 different continents (North America, Europe and Asia). We welcomed 150 speakers and 8,777 guests who attended from over 120 countries.
