Rising hunger for learning
“IMEX Frankfurt showed us there’s a rising hunger for learning that we haven’t witnessed at such scale before. We saw this both in professional development topics such as leadership, creativity and experience design and in the arena of personal health, well-being and connection. Given the changing nature of the US event planning market, I expect this to be even more marked in Las Vegas, and we have a stunning program to match!” says Tahira Endean, Head of Programming.
Talking about current market sentiment and some of the big factors at play, Carina Bauer, IMEX Group CEO, says:
“Everyone in this industry knows that planners don’t just plan events.”
“We create moments where people feel seen, heard and understood. We create the conditions for mattering. And we do that by bringing people together—face to face, in real time, in real places—across cultures, countries and companies. In a world where AI can fake a voice, a face, a message—what we create is something that can’t be faked. And I see that driving this need for real life connection within our global market right now.”
IMEX America takes place October 7-9, 2025, at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas. Register here.
