Virtual Roundtable + Chocolate Tasting
Why Good B2B Events Are Becoming Easier to Ignore
B2B tech buyers are receiving more invitations than ever, yet many events are built around the same formats, familiar topics and increasingly interchangeable promises.
This private virtual chocolate tasting brings together senior field marketing, demand generation and event leaders to discuss what genuinely earns attention now, and how teams can create events people choose to attend without turning every program into an expensive one-off.
We will explore where audience insight should shape the topic and format, what makes an experience memorable rather than gimmicky, and how the right operating model can protect originality as the event calendar scales.

Event details
An hour built around real challenges and solutions
Ten to fifteen senior marketing leaders join by video, each with a chocolate tasting kit delivered ahead of the session. The tasting gives the conversation a shared, relaxed starting point before the discussion moves into what genuinely earns attention now.
The session runs under Chatham House Rules, so leaders can speak candidly about what is and is not working in their programs.
