That's a wrap on Exceptional Experiences, Cannes! We've seen so many global event professionals & marketers making waves, this panel was dedicated to celebrating the hard work of all experience makers, and offer insights from the pros 🥂 In case you missed it, here were the key takeaways: Celebrating diversity was a standout! More shows are catering to diverse cultural groups, youth, women - not just the top brass - with Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity offering free childcare called Cub onboard 😍 Our survey found that 77% of respondents believe live events/experiential marketing are crucial to the marketing mix, with 93% agreeing that the ROI was positive in their live event portfolio. Shauna Little from The Washington Post added that ROI isn't just about numbers, but quality relationships and meaningful conversations. Judy Lee from Pinterest also emphasised long-term partnerships over quick deals. It's about nurturing the relationship with the decision-makers 🤝 Just a reminder... sustainability and authenticity matter. Re-using activations & moving away from single-use IS IN! Upcycle football shirts, make bracelets- just keep it real and authentic 🌍🍃 AI is here, not to replace us, but to assist us. Jimmy Knowles says innovations like Canva's AI enable us to work smarter, not harder. It will help create a great first draft, leaving experience makers to add their own creativity 🧪🎨 Catch our next Exceptional Experiences event in the lovely Barcelona this November.
