Blended is back, baby—and it never should’ve left! In this episode, Tess and Keith get fired up (in the best way) about the return of hybrid events—er, blended audiences—and why now is the time for planners to get strategic, not nostalgic.
With international travel down, stricter border controls in place, and the U.S. becoming less accessible for global attendees, we're once again seeing the critical need for virtual options. But this time around, the tech is better, the audiences are smarter, and the excuses are tired.

Plus, we share some of our go-to tools for supporting blended experiences (check the links below 👇), and why long-term planning matters more than ever in the face of event industry disruption.
Key Takeaway:
