    Virtual Roundtable + Chocolate Tasting

    Rethinking Event Growth in 2027: Audience, Sponsorship & Profitability

    Please note this event will start at 3pm Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

    For B2B media and event businesses, growing revenue in 2027 will mean finding new ways to engage audiences, strengthen sponsorship propositions and expand event portfolios without adding unnecessary cost or complexity.

    Join a small group of senior media and event executives for a private virtual roundtable exploring where the next opportunities for growth lie. From building year-round audience communities and developing new event experiences to increasing sponsorship value and protecting margins as delivery costs rise.

    We'll discuss what's changing across the industry, where leaders see the greatest commercial opportunities and which approaches deserve greater attention in 2027.
