As promised, change continues to brew at Event Solutions. In keeping up with the trends toward a digital migration of print media, we will be delivering your event industry news a bit differently.
Starting with our next issue, Event Solutions’ print publication will be an every-other-month magazine. We will keep you updated on industry happenings and trends with a redesigned website and increased number of enewsletters that will have the latest industry information, trends and happenings.

In an ever-changing world of instant, on-demand information, Event Solutions will make the necessary moves to be at the front of media trends for the event industry. However, we also recognize the tactile and visual elements of events and believe strongly in maintaining the print magazine for those of you who prefer to “touch and feel.” The new mix of solutions will meet everyone’s preferences.
It is exciting for us to be able to divert some of our resources into our website and other digital information delivery. Just as we’ve done with the print magazine, look for an updated design and more clear content at event-solutions.com.

This new reorganization of the Event Solutions family of products will also allow us to 
re-focus energy on the Conference & Tradeshow. As we all know, the world of live events 
is constantly evolving and that includes our own conference.
We understand that true change takes time. However, we are committed to establishing the show as the leader in education, networking and idea generation. I invite you to be a part of that change and help us build the show that creates the best results for you and your business.

Join us March 8-10 in Las Vegas to experience the beginning of those changes with 
a relevant, condensed and affordable education program, combined with ample networking opportunities. Join us and share with me what you want to see in your industry’s conference.
I invite you to contribute to the process of designing the revitalized way that we deliver information to you. Let me know if you have suggestions for the website, enewsletters, print magazine, digital edition, or conference. Send me story ideas and information about events you’ve created. Event Solutions is your event industry information source and we look forward to creating new ways to meet the demands of a changing world with you.
