Today's conversation explores the use of AI in event planning and management. I'm joined by AI Event Prof, Anca Platan Trifan to discuss the benefits of using AI tools like ChatGPT to save time, improve productivity, and enhance the attendee experience. Anca emphasizes the importance of learning and embracing AI to stay competitive.
We also touch on the fear of stepping out of one's comfort zone and the need to adapt to the changing landscape of technology.

ello and welcome back to not the same
1:04
as last year so I promised last week
1:07
that this episode would be all about
1:09
artificial intelligence in events and
1:11
how it will help improve a attendee
1:14
experience but to be honest I don't
1:16
think we're quite there yet I have been
1:19
mcing a few events this year obviously
1:22
and in fact in every single one
1:24
regardless of the industry there has
1:26
been at least one session on AI And yet
1:29
when when I talk to the people running
1:31
the events the event organizers
1:33
themselves most of them are barely using
1:36
it whether it is because they think they
1:38
don't have time to learn about it or
1:40
they are afraid of it or there isn't
1:42
even a policy to implement AI within
1:44
their organizational structure whatever
1:47
it's not being used so today I think we
1:49
need to start a little bit earlier we
1:51
need to talk about how AI can help us
1:54
event professionals to save time and
1:57
improve our processes so my goal for
2:00
this episode is to make you excited
2:02
about Ai and how it can help you do a
2:05
better and more efficient job which will
2:07
then give you the time back to enable
2:09
you to be more creative and make your
2:12
events better for your attendees now I'm
2:15
excited by Ai and its potential but I am
2:18
still only dabbling myself and I've
2:20
still got a lot to learn and try so I've
2:23
asked someone far more knowledgeful on
2:25
the impact of AI and events to join me
2:28
Anor platon trean is the founder of the
2:31
event production company tree fan events
2:33
she has her own amazing podcast
2:36
demystifying events and if that's not
2:38
enough she's also an award-winning
2:40
bodybuilder and weight training coach
2:42
she's really committed to merging event
2:44
production with wellness and Technology
2:47
to really enhance the event experience
2:49
and indeed to sharing her knowledge with
2:51
others so we're very lucky to be able to
2:53
speak to her today and I started by
2:55
asking her why she has found AI so easy
2:59
to get into when I first started in
3:01
event Productions 20 something years ago
3:03
it's because I was very much embedded
3:05
into into technology and I it starts
3:08
from as early as like fifth grade I kid
3:11
you not when uh when I first uh went
3:14
into a comp computer uh science class in
3:17
middle school and we were the first
3:20
generation on the internet and we had
3:23
the internet to ourselves there was no
3:27
boundaries there's no rules I mean we're
3:29
kind kind of like free and wild and some
3:32
of it was good some of it not so good
3:34
right but I was always diving into
3:37
whatever the newest thing was the newest
3:39
technology and that has kind of been the
3:42
journey the story of my life so when you
3:45
know AI kind of became on the next thing
3:49
came on the scenes um
3:51
2022 is when we know of chpt coming out
3:55
and everybody was like oh my gosh what
3:57
is this thing right but actually AI
3:59
algorithms have been used by businesses
4:01
like think of Amazon if you think of
4:03
your uh patterns what you shop what you
4:06
listen to uh what you watch all of that
4:09
is dictated by AI algorithms in the
4:12
background right so it's not a New
4:13
Concept however for a lot of us on the
4:15
front end it was kind of new when CHP
4:18
came out and we started interacting with
4:21
this large language model that could
4:23
give us answers like you would be
4:25
talking to a human right so um it wasn't
4:28
anything different for for me than just
4:30
following the technology and seeing
4:33
where it leads and when I saw that this
4:35
is a big deal in the way we interact the
4:37
way it's going to change our processes
4:39
and the way it's going to change the way
4:40
we work create workflows and the way we
4:43
plan events the way we Market them I was
4:45
all in I'm like I'm going straight in
4:48
because this is going to definitely to
4:50
use the CHP most used uh word
4:55
revolutionize our future right so um
4:59
that was a no brainer for me to just
5:01
dive straight in and it's funny because
5:03
I find myself me and a lot of other
5:06
others that we use words that CH GPT
5:09
uses a lot but now we use it in our
5:11
everyday conversations and I laugh at
5:13
myself because there's words that I've
5:15
never used before right like
5:16
revolutionize dwell more over further
5:19
more dive all those things that now we
5:22
we speak like an
5:24
llm I know and I'm having to catch
5:27
myself because obviously I Ed it a lot
5:30
to help me phrase something or start me
5:32
off sometimes when I'm getting a bit of
5:34
a creative mind block and then I want to
5:36
turn it into my own thing and I think
5:39
I've done that and then I'm reading a
5:41
script and I'm oh no there's a lot of
5:43
diving and dwelling going on there I
5:45
didn't I know I kind of cringe I think
5:48
gosh there's some episodes I've probably
5:50
recorded already where I've put a bit of
5:51
diving and dwelling in um so yeah we do
5:54
have to we have to be careful I think
5:57
though I'm using it and I think oh look
5:58
at everyone's using it and there still
6:00
not people still are frightened of it
6:02
and I am not someone who is like you
6:04
doing it in Computer Sciences school I
6:05
was the one oh gosh no I'm not going to
6:07
do that I'll learn at some stage and
6:10
I've picked it up this year and I think
6:12
particularly maybe those of us who run
6:14
our own businesses we're using it
6:15
because it's such a shortcut it's such a
6:18
shortcut and it saves so much time and
6:20
so much money when you should be doing
6:22
something else and you're wasting time
6:23
trying to phrase something and the
6:25
language model will help you but within
6:27
event planning in a in a in a company
6:30
and budgets are tight things that being
6:33
a to do so much more with so much less
6:36
this is going to make their lives just
6:38
nicer isn't it so much easier absolutely
6:41
I'm using chpd and I feel like for the
6:43
most of us it's quite a common tool to
6:48
use nowadays if it's not maybe you
6:51
should get on it cuz you don't want to
6:53
be miles behind because even chpt as
6:57
they're constantly up updating and
6:58
upgrading their product they're going to
7:00
get into AI agents and other
7:03
infrastructures and other workflows that
7:05
if you don't start from point A to kind
7:08
of get an idea of how this all works you
7:11
might get so many light years behind
7:13
that it's going to be so intimidated to
7:14
want to try so that being said where I
7:18
see AI especially Beyond chpt really
7:21
help event planning event management
7:23
event sourcing is the use of AI agents
7:27
what does that mean it's not just one
7:29
tool like Chad GPT that can repurpose
7:32
your content or sped out different
7:34
versions of the same pitch that you're
7:37
going to send to multiple stakeholders
7:39
for say a talk or maybe an event that
7:42
you want to get sponsorship for or maybe
7:45
an audience engagement piece that you're
7:47
trying to make it more interactive and
7:49
you're like o act as somebody like an
7:51
Entertainer or act like a com comedian
7:54
or act like Claire Forester that knows
7:56
how to un see events like something like
7:59
that right
7:59
it's going to be more where you have one
8:02
task and then you give it the
8:04
instructions of what this one task is
8:06
and let's say it's planning an event but
8:08
it's more than just planning an event
8:10
there's multiple steps and checklists
8:12
that you have to go through as you're
8:15
planning this one event right so we're
8:17
talking from pre-event engagement to
8:20
sponsorships to Enga to agenda building
8:23
to uh maybe having some kind of
8:26
interaction or maybe some uh kyot
8:29
speakers that will really grab the
8:30
attention MC's um all the way post event
8:33
to Gathering surveys and we're not even
8:36
talking about sourcing the right space
8:38
the right venue the right vendors the
8:39
right event uh Partners all of that so
8:41
you have this list of things that you
8:43
know you have to accomplish and you're
8:45
like okay I'm one person I got to do it
8:47
all I probably need like I don't know uh
8:50
nine months 16 months to get this all
8:53
done nowadays if you're going to get uh
8:56
this AI agents to work on your behalf
8:58
because you know how to use it and you
9:00
know how to implement into your
9:01
processes and your workflows you're
9:03
going to give it the task this is my
9:05
event this is what we're trying to
9:06
accomplish this is the vision this is
9:08
the why all the things that normally you
9:10
would as you're planning an event and
9:12
then you're going to see your AI agents
9:13
literally do the work for you all the
9:16
way from sourcing uh venues sending rfps
9:19
out getting your room blocks negotiating
9:22
prices getting the right Partners to uh
9:25
be part of the event getting the right
9:26
sponsors to be part of the event all the
9:28
way to the end where you're going to CT
9:31
capture um surveys and then repurpose
9:34
the content that you capture during the
9:35
event so you have that engagement
9:37
throughout the year right so this is
9:39
like the job of all of those AI agents
9:42
they work for you now if you're someone
9:45
that has low resources or maybe doesn't
9:48
have access to a
9:51
multi-million doll budget and a large
9:54
team that can do a lot of those things
9:56
for you why would you say no to a tool
10:00
that can get you so far ahead and it's
10:03
not hard like that's why my purpose has
10:05
been to provide a lot of education and
10:07
valuable content to the event industry
10:10
through my courses through the free live
10:12
streams that I do through the podcast
10:14
there's a lot of information you just
10:15
want to be willing to take advantage of
10:18
it I think it's that what puts people
10:20
off isn't it it's the where to start
10:21
that you said that I meet a lot of
10:23
people who are who are solopreneurs and
10:25
they'll say yeah I'm going to do that
10:26
next month I've just got a lot to do
10:28
this month and then I'm going to do do
10:29
that and you're like it's it's like this
10:31
will help you do what you need to do
10:33
this month you're just going to be brave
10:34
enough I think maybe to take yourself
10:36
out of the business for a few days and
10:38
just put your heads down and like like
10:40
you did when you were studying at Uni or
10:42
school and just go have to learn this AI
10:45
it's not hard my goodness CLA can do it
10:47
anyone can do it you should make a
10:49
purpose intent to say today I'm going to
10:52
learn something new and if I have 20
10:54
minutes to assign for that learning then
10:56
do it or you know your time spent on a
10:59
couch watching Netflix How about you
11:01
assign that time to something that will
11:04
Propel your career further and your
11:06
skill set for if you are in a job or
11:10
career or something where AI can
11:13
easily replace you it's time to up level
11:16
your skills and I'm serious and it's not
11:19
a some kind of a warning it's more like
11:21
this is where the future is going so you
11:23
don't want to be left behind you don't
11:25
want to be the last person to find out
11:27
oh my goodness my position just got um
11:31
removed replaced and that's happened a
11:33
lot especially with a lot of the tech
11:35
Giants because I was too complacent to
11:38
learn what I needed to learn when it was
11:40
the right time to learn it like to the
11:43
analogy with driving the car versus
11:44
flying an airplane you know but there is
11:46
a fear and I think that's an instinctive
11:47
thing I call this podcast not the same
11:49
as last year because it's so easy in a
11:52
way to not get out of your comfort zone
11:54
to get your Google Docs out that you've
11:56
always used and your little spreadsheets
11:58
and just go through through well this is
12:00
how we've always done it why am I going
12:02
to do it differently and they that's
12:03
with every aspect of planning so you
12:06
know AI I also want to talk about that
12:09
idea that everything we want to do is to
12:11
put the attendee first and ultimately if
12:13
you're going to put the attendee first
12:14
you're going to do the best that you can
12:15
you're going to do the most modern the
12:17
most exciting the things that they're
12:18
doing there's no point just saying oh
12:20
we've got a session on AI in our event
12:22
which happens and then you've not used
12:26
you know how many times clear it's
12:27
happened where like oh we have a poll
12:30
we've covered the interaction the
12:32
engagement part of the stock know I know
12:36
I know it's oh oh we' we've got it we've
12:38
made our sessions 30 minutes we've got
12:40
it
12:42
like and then you're throwing the baby
12:44
out with a bath water aren't you because
12:45
actually your session doesn't need to be
12:47
30 minutes long if it's really
12:49
interactive really interesting session
12:50
exactly does have to be but it's yeah
12:53
and this is it I think we are battling
12:55
that I understand the going out of your
12:59
comfort zone I understand the fear but
13:01
let's just go back all the way where
13:03
like when the calculators came out like
13:07
calculators that we don't even use
13:08
anymore because they're on our phones
13:10
right but when it first came out there
13:12
was this whole fear in the basically in
13:15
the education space that Educators and
13:19
teachers and professors are go are going
13:22
to be replaced by this one calculator
13:25
that now could do the job of teaching
13:27
people how to do equation ience and
13:31
aggressive math right did that happen no
13:35
it became a tool where we were way
13:38
faster at making those calculations that
13:42
otherwise would have taken you know all
13:45
what it's not just 1 plus one equals two
13:47
right so going with that analogy to our
13:49
present to how AI is really enhancing a
13:53
lot of the processes a lot of the
13:54
workflows that we do that's just a tool
13:58
now it's still required
13:59
at least in our time and space right now
14:03
a human to dictate which direction what
14:07
output what kind of outcome are you
14:09
looking for right we're not yet yet in
14:11
the AGI space we're going to get there
14:14
but if we get there and you haven't even
14:16
tried the narrow AI opportunities that
14:20
we're experiencing right now when we
14:23
have this super
14:27
intelligent whatever
14:30
taking over a lot of those processes
14:33
you're not going to be able to keep up
14:35
to understand how this works and where
14:37
are you going to fit yourself into that
14:40
whole picture so my I guess
14:43
encouragement is start small whatever
14:46
you are if this is your first time
14:48
hearing Chad GPT be curious to find out
14:51
what it is what it could do for you
14:53
there is a lot of free education on
14:55
prompting actually I have on my own
14:57
profile on LinkedIn several videos that
15:00
I have put uh as LinkedIn live
15:03
educational um videos where you can
15:07
learn how to prompt chat GPT properly so
15:09
you can get the output that you want
15:11
because then there's also this thing
15:13
where well I go and I try it and oh this
15:15
is so to terrible because you don't know
15:17
how to prompt it because you don't know
15:20
what you're looking for as an output so
15:22
you're going to get kind of like trash
15:23
in trash out that's the reality right so
15:26
training yourself to learn a little bit
15:29
uh one step at a time because it takes a
15:32
bit of intentionality to want to move
15:35
with the technology to move with the
15:37
future but I in my opinion it's better
15:41
to do it now as we're you know advancing
15:44
at this space versus um one year later a
15:48
few months later I mean things are
15:50
changing really really fast I wanted to
15:52
ask you because you gave a really good
15:54
description at the beginning of the
15:56
possibility for an event planner you
15:57
know you're looking at the huge great
15:59
big event that could happen and how you
16:01
could make it happen on the simplest
16:03
level if you think what could I do
16:06
tomorrow that will immediately make my
16:07
life quicker as an event planner I think
16:10
the simplest way to get into all of this
16:13
is really to give it a try right right
16:16
now any browser on your computer that
16:19
you're going to install has some form of
16:22
AI uh enabler right so if this is uh
16:26
Microsoft they will have Bing if this is
16:29
Google they have Gemini so you have it
16:31
at your fingerprints you don't even have
16:33
to have per se chpt premium to go and
16:36
use it right even though chpt has been
16:39
kind of the first one to come out in a
16:41
very um intentional manner to change the
16:45
way we interact with llms um I would
16:49
start there I would go and input like
16:51
let's get let's take an example player
16:53
uh say for this podcast you were hey I
16:56
want to have this conversation with Anka
16:58
I'm Cur I'm kind of like I want to know
17:00
what I'm going to ask her but I would
17:01
actually like to um generate a few extra
17:05
questions on this particular topic that
17:07
we're going to uncover today and I need
17:10
some help so you literally would go to
17:12
chpd or whatever form of AI that you
17:15
have embedded into your browser if you
17:17
don't have chpd um as a subscription
17:21
whatever and you would ask okay um act
17:24
as a podcast Host this is my guest this
17:27
is what we're going to talk about um
17:29
generate a couple of extra more uh
17:31
questions or some ice breakers right for
17:34
this conversation we're going to have or
17:36
some interesting trivia facts about the
17:40
event industry that we're going to
17:41
sprinkle throughout the conversation
17:42
just to make it more engaging
17:44
interactive or whatever right um sure
17:47
you might have access in your head to
17:49
all of that information but let me tell
17:51
you I bad that you have a limited supply
17:55
of that so then you're using your AI
17:59
assistant to give you more input let's
18:01
say you're planning an event and you're
18:03
like I'm running out of idea because we
18:04
used to do the same team every year and
18:06
people are kind of tired of this Western
18:08
theme and they're kind of tired of this
18:10
Cowboy theme and kind of tired of this
18:11
like doing the same thing again and
18:13
again right I W to do something
18:15
different now you have some information
18:18
related to your van you want to again
18:20
prompt your llm your
18:23
AI help helpful agent in some way so you
18:27
can start with a common knowledge of
18:30
what you're trying to accomplish because
18:32
you could go with zero point prompting
18:34
which just means hey give me some ideas
18:36
for some events that I could plan and
18:38
you're going to get a very wide range
18:41
that some of it might be applicable some
18:43
of it might be like yeah there's no way
18:45
we're not going to doing a Barbie team
18:48
event or whatever right so if you have
18:51
some information based on the history of
18:52
the events that you've done you have
18:53
some analytics some data that you can
18:55
pull off now you actually can really be
18:59
tactical and strategic in your searches
19:01
in your prompting so you can get an
19:03
output an outcome that is relevant to
19:07
what you're searching right and I
19:08
promise you I mean I'm sure both me and
19:10
you have done this many times over just
19:12
in the way we you know we want to just
19:14
bring something different to our events
19:16
to our speaking engagement to our
19:17
podcast conversations and there's so
19:21
much opportunity out there beyond your
19:23
own capacity being in the AV production
19:26
business I get clients all the time
19:28
coming with literally two pieces of
19:31
information when they're asking about
19:32
can you generate a proposal for me or a
19:35
or a quote how much would it cost to do
19:37
this event and then that's it so I don't
19:41
have a date I don't have uh any
19:44
information about what kind of a are we
19:46
looking for I don't have any information
19:48
about your location uh audience size uh
19:52
agenda none of it right and then we just
19:55
go back and forth back and forth like to
19:56
find all of this now I was like you know
19:58
what I normally have a list of questions
20:01
that it's kind of like a screening form
20:04
that when I have a conversation with a
20:05
client I would ask them all of those
20:07
questions so then when I send them that
20:10
proposal like initial estimate it hits
20:13
on their specific needs right so I was
20:17
like okay here's the questions that I
20:18
normally ask now dear Chad GPD helpful
20:22
helpful um assistant can you put this in
20:26
a format that is easy to read simplify
20:29
it basically uh make it concise and
20:31
straightforward and I got a form
20:34
generated that it turned into a lant
20:37
article but again who came with all of
20:39
the knowledge yeah behind it right
20:42
that's what I think a lot of people get
20:43
sort of like turn off by oh I don't want
20:46
to use chat GPT because it's cheating is
20:48
it really because as far as I'm
20:50
concerned every piece of article every
20:52
piece of blog post it has come from my
20:55
knowledge and let me tell you as a
20:57
English as a second language speaker
20:59
because uh I grew up in Romania that's
21:02
my native language to me this has been
21:05
like the blessing of them all blessings
21:07
because sometimes even after 20
21:09
something years in us and 30 years of
21:12
speaking English I don't always get the
21:15
you know specifics of the English
21:19
grammar this is helpful to me like now I
21:22
can sound like a Sant even though I'm
21:24
like I can barely speak English well
21:27
don't worry as you get older anyway
21:28
forget all the languages you know
21:30
sometimes I don't get information
21:32
exactly like you as a supplier I get a
21:34
request for your fees for some event
21:37
with no detail around it exactly and
21:39
then you're trying to get them into a
21:40
call and a lot of people don't want to
21:41
do calls because they're busy a lot of
21:43
people want to just do it on an email
21:45
and you're wasting so much time so
21:47
absolutely that form you suggest and I'm
21:49
going to steal that idea it it's just
21:53
helps you and I think also with me one
21:55
of the biggest things I don't get a lot
21:56
of information in time you've got
21:58
another event on another subject and
22:00
you're still trying to get the BIOS from
22:01
the speakers to put together your
22:02
engines and you get this bio that's
22:05
terrible that's been written ages have a
22:08
helpful tool for that um this AI agent
22:10
that I was using and deploying into
22:12
event planning that again I'm teaching
22:13
on during my course literally would
22:17
would go to the LinkedIn profile of this
22:19
one speaker that you're trying to uh beg
22:23
them to send you their bio and it will
22:26
pull all the relevant information from
22:28
their profile and rewrite it in a
22:31
paragraph bardine is one of the tools
22:33
that I use for that so A simple uh
22:36
example there is say that you have a
22:38
really cool post on something there's a
22:40
lot of Engagement and now You' be
22:42
interested to know who those people are
22:44
and maybe interact with them uh on a you
22:46
know more personal way because they
22:48
could be leads for you right so this
22:51
automation that you can build in bardine
22:53
would literally go to that one post and
22:56
then take all of those people and all of
22:59
their comments and their LinkedIn
23:00
profile their information in you know
23:03
including email and everything they they
23:05
have posted publicly on the LinkedIn
23:07
profile and extract it into a
23:09
spreadsheet so next time you take that
23:11
spreadsheet and now the next step could
23:13
be part of the same automation to draft
23:16
a personalized email to each one of
23:19
those then have it sit in your draft in
23:22
your email uh box so that you can review
23:25
it again you should always review what
23:27
an llm does
23:29
and then send it out that's amazing not
23:32
automatically tools are
23:35
available knowledge is available but you
23:39
have to want to learn either how to use
23:43
it how to implement it or if it's even
23:45
for
23:46
you yeah I mean that what you're saying
23:49
there you know I think oh I'm so clever
23:51
I do this I save my LinkedIn posts and I
23:53
go through them and I make a story but
23:54
you know that's the next level and
23:56
that's the next level and that's using
23:57
the automation which I'm thinking I
23:59
don't know how to do that but because
24:00
I've done a little bit of AI I'm
24:02
thinking okay that's that's something
24:04
that I could learn to do if I can do
24:06
something more effectively more
24:08
productively um it is a win for me
24:11
because aside from my pro professional
24:14
Endeavors I also have personal goals
24:17
that take time right like when I'm in
24:19
the gym working out for an hour and a
24:21
half every single day six days a week
24:23
because I have a goal to compete in this
24:26
next bodybuilding show
24:29
I need to find time for that I don't
24:32
have more than 24 hours like everyone
24:34
else and I really really like my sleep
24:35
to
24:36
be recharging and uh recovering and good
24:40
so I don't I don't cut any uh steps and
24:44
any uh Corners when it comes to my sleep
24:47
so if I can gain you know extra hours in
24:50
my day from sleep then I have to gain
24:53
them somewhere else so then if I can
24:56
improve my processes and become more
24:58
productive and more effective and now I
25:00
have an hour and a half two hours at my
25:03
disposal every single day so I can go
25:05
into the gym and do the things that I
25:07
want to do personally then I don't know
25:09
what to tell you but to me that's such a
25:11
hard sell you can convince me not to do
25:14
it because I'm like it's in my advantage
25:16
you
25:17
know yeah it's the personal impact that
25:20
AI is having as well well you know
25:21
you're a total proponent for using it I
25:24
love that and I I think people will have
25:28
got got something out of this even if
25:29
they thought they knew how to use Ai and
25:32
maybe at the beginning when we were
25:33
talking and we were saying get in now
25:35
when it's early I think you proved
25:36
there's just so much that we are
25:39
literally nibbling at the possibilities
25:41
at the moment absolutely and have a lot
25:45
of resources that are free on my
25:47
LinkedIn profile my YouTube pages and
25:50
then if you want to take a little step
25:51
uh you know forward and put a little bit
25:53
of investment behind it then I have
25:56
courses that really tackle different
25:58
aspects of the event planning of the
26:00
business running of uh of events as well
26:02
because I'm a a business owner as well
26:04
so for me as much as it's important to
26:06
know how to use AI in events it's also
26:08
very much important to know how to use
26:10
AI in my everyday business operations
26:12
and processes right so there's multiple
26:14
things that you can do now I would start
26:18
with small steps pick one tool that you
26:21
feel like you're going to be most likely
26:22
to use it and then learn more about it
26:25
like learn how to prompt it correctly
26:27
learn how to use use it in your everyday
26:30
workflow right to figure out if that's
26:32
something that you can take it at on a
26:33
larger scale because again when you're
26:35
planning an event you also have a lot of
26:37
stakeholders that you got to talk to you
26:39
want to be able to give them a good
26:41
report but if you use it in a small ways
26:44
and then you're confident enough to use
26:46
it in larger ways it's just it's just
26:48
going to happen automatically you no
26:50
longer have to fear that it's going to I
26:53
don't know mess up your event somehow
26:55
somewhere yeah because you're always
26:56
going in and checking it as well as
26:58
you're going through it just as you
26:59
would be with maybe a junior member of
27:02
your team you would be double checking
27:03
before you agreed it I'm going to try
27:05
all these different things it's really
27:07
exciting thank you so much because I'm
27:09
there's so much there for people who are
27:11
just getting their toe in the water and
27:12
how they can make their event better for
27:16
them which is ultimately going to mean
27:17
they've got all the time to make it
27:18
better for the attendee which is what
27:20
it's all about which it makes it all
27:21
better for us both on the supplier
27:24
partner side or the attendee side yeah
27:27
so that was great well n it so much from
27:29
Anka there to get us started on our AI
27:31
journey in event and I will make sure
27:34
that we share all the information that
27:36
she has given us and all about how to
27:38
get hold of her and how to get on to her
27:39
courses on the show notes I'd love to
27:42
hear how you're getting on with your AI
27:44
Journey how it's helping you in events
27:46
so do drop me a line either on social
27:49
media or via my website and tell me how
27:52
you're using it and also join us next
27:55
week where we're going to be talking
27:57
about the panel is it time to retire the
28:01
event panel I look forward to seeing you
