My free weekly newsletter read by 20k event professionals -> insights.Boldpush.com

I am obsessed with media, content, and events. I sold two businesses, a tech company and a media business, worked in fast-paced environments, keynoted worldwide, planned iconic virtual events during the pandemic, and wrote reports downloaded 300k times. 

Longer story:

I founded EventMB (exited to Skift in 2019) and Showthemes, exited in 2018, and worked for technology companies and tech events. 

I have been in senior marketing positions in hypergrowth tech companies. Recently, I founded Boldpush, a management consulting agency for the event industry. 

In 2023, 8 million LinkedIn users read my content and I became a Top Voice, an invite only program for top content creators on LinkedIn.

The government of the United States granted me an EB1 visa as an alien of extraordinary ability for my contribution to the event industry and research on event technology.

Many publications have nominated me as the most influential individual in the event industry for several years.

300,000 event professionals downloaded my books.

Founder

Boldpush is a vertical agency helping eventtech, corporate teams and agencies grow.
Go-to-market, content, registration and sponsorship strategy.  


Last year a potential client came to me and said, we need to change the way we do things.

I asked why.

‘Well, the event is no longer growing.
We need to redesign the whole experience.’

I asked what aspect specifically?

‘We need to redesign the whole event.’

I did not sign up that client.

Why? 

I would have spent the next 3 months convincing them it was a bad idea.

Changing ‘the whole event’ is a strategy I rarely support.

Too much disruption is never good for an event.

Small tweaks
Targeted interventions where NPS went down
Direct addressing of the things that do not work. 

That’s what I like.

This little episode made me think about statements or predictions we accept as dogma. 

Listen, I am guilty as charged. Experience or research changed my mind. 

Before you ask. 
This is all Boldpush+ proprietary research we shared in November.

Here they are. 
State the numbers you support below.

 1. We thought events were about content. They are about connection, research says.
 2. We thought logos on a banner were useless. It’s in the top 5 sponsorship revenue generators.
 3. We thought late registrations were ending after 2022. 86% GenZ registers 4 weeks out.
 4. We thought alcohol worked for everyone. 64% GenZ don’t drink at events.
 5. We thought we could not monetize content. 32% of Dreamforce pipeline is from Salesforce+.
 6. We thought email was dead. It’s the top source of registrations.
 7. We thought sponsors would plan ahead. 44% sign up late.
 8. We thought the industry measured ROI. 13% don’t.
 9. We thought 365 day community was a myth. It’s the second top reg driver.
 10. We thought AI would kill eventtech spend. It’s up 4.5%.
 11. We thought events peaked in 2025. 4.5% more events in 2026.
 12. We thought budgets were going up in 2026. They are not.
 13. We thought GenZ did not want to be sold at. Only 5% avoids booths.




P.S. 37,000 event professionals also require better answers. I clarify things for them in my weekly newsletter.

A new MAP of the event technology landscape with AI focus - FREE PDF!

There is a lot happening in eventtech. 

If you are sourcing for tech, this is the document you can’t do without.

A PDF with clickable links to check out what’s new in eventtech and AI today.

The updates from last quarter:

Cvent has carried two major acquisitions. On24 and Goldcast. 

I left them on the maps as is, as it is uncertain whether Cvent will operate them as standalone brands or absorb them under the Cvent umbrella.

Also notable acquisitions for the last quarter was Eventbrite being acquired by Bending Spoons. 

For the AI category, I made a specific call out on LinkedIn to collect as many as possible. I will soon retire AI and move them within vertical categories, as it will become the standard. 

For the time being, it signals AI native companies. The criteria are more relaxed. 

About the Map

This map is the result of my analysis and experience in eventtech. 

It is subjective and purely EDITORIAL.

Some of the criteria for inclusion:

* New product features
* Revenue milestones
* Organic media coverage (no paid placements)
* High-profile client sign-up
* Recent funding rounds
* Country-specific penetration
* Recurring presence in online planner conversations
* Positive online reviews
* Meaningful product launches


If I missed you, send me a message by March 15 2026, with an answer to the above criteria (it doesn’t have to be all of them) and what category fits you best.

Disclosure: 

Inclusion on this map is NOT pay-for-play. 

I have worked and do work with many of the companies listed. However, I have also never talked to many of the companies listed. 

The map is not up for sale or sponsorship for eventtech providers. 

This map does not endorse any of the listed companies, and it is not buyer advice.

If you want a PDF version with clickable links, leave a comment and I’ll share the link. 

If you’ve been listed, repost this post with a comment. 
The repost with the most likes gets a star on the next map.

I took my notes from all the research and client work I did over the past 3 months and added them here.

A quick reference for you.

More context for those who still read words:

 - Not having a data strategy will shut down many events. There is no way in a conversation with multiple stakeholders and teams that you will win with just opinions. 

 - The side events trend is exploding (more on this later this week). Booking entire neighborhoods is the new venue sourcing.

 - Bring podcasts live on stage. I posted about this in December.

 - Segmenting receptions leads to higher NPS

 - Sponsors are booking late. 86% of Gen Z registers 2 weeks out. See T-8 weeks.

 - Some sessions are better to be intimate and with no devices allowed.

 - Imperative to cater to multiple learning and connection styles. I covered all content formats in my newsletter.

 - Your CEO reading a script to open your event is a mood killer, learn from Benioff at Dreamforce, improv.

 - Planners are now building with AI, or building AI. Eventtech beware.

 - Side events are a higher pull than the main event for many attendees. Own them.

 - Send a post-event attendee report including connection, session recaps, and booths visited as Dreamforce does.

 - T-8 weeks is the most important time in your registration timeline.

 - Having an MC that makes sense of main stage moments and directs the experience is key.

 - Move sponsors to coordinate workshops and roundtables. Easier to scale.

 - Hands-on content across the board. Hire experts, not speakers.

 - Gen X, Millennials, and Z together at most business events. Your challenge is to cater to all of them.

 - Registration never closes. Pre-register people. Pre-sell. Do not give up revenue.

 - Connection official, research-backed, number one reason to attend. Change your event accordingly.

The reality is that I lost 75% of you after the first three lines.

For those who stayed.

Congrats, you just landed the top 13 job on LinkedIn, you are in Field Marketing. Now what?

The news: Field marketing representative is the 13th ‘on the rise’ job on LinkedIn. An annual chart of the hottest jobs.

Whether you’re in the field repping or running the show, here’s what should be top of mind:

 - It’s not enough to share opinions like ‘face to face is the future’ to your boss. Build a plan and show data.

 - The ability to get your sales team to act on what you generate will define your success. Obsess over it.

 - Sync Salesforce or Hubspot to your event tech platform, figure out a way to make it happen. NOW.

 - A dinner is worth 3 booths. Hyve just launched a dinner product to help marketers connect with buyers. It’s that hot.

 - If you are giving something away for free, either show up and talk to every person, or you are wasting budget.

 - For your key show, try to show up at multiple touchpoints, across the funnel. If the budget does not allow it, use dinners in conjunction with partners.

 - This is going to be a ‘busy’ year. More than usual. Be ready, take care of yourself. Pre-schedule your holidays. Join Boldpush+ for content and community support.
 
There is more. Much more.

Congrats and keep us posted on how it goes.


P.S. 37K top event people get my newsletter every Wednesday. Join the party.

Find it at the top, next to my name.

I am sorry to say this, but I am done with immersive screen activations.

Let me be clear.

I think there is space to use 360-degree screens to help attendees forget about the sad convention center carpet. But I hate when it turns to a glorified sales presentation.

Here is when it gets messy:

Heavy corporate language
Massive amount of information
Lack of so what

It becomes a fancy PPT.

Here is why I don’t like it as an attendee:

I am here to talk to humans. 
If you use more tech, you have to be super clever.

Also

I feel content overload 9 out of 10.
I don’t want to digest the story behind AI. 
I don’t care.

And

We have seen the Sphere, it takes a lot to impress us just with a screen.

So here is the question.

What is the message?



P.S. On Wednesday, I am dropping my CES review. Unfiltered and unsponsored. 

On my newsletter, we are almost 40K. 

Find it next to my name on top.

I am on a mission to change the narrative on mental health, in an industry known for stress, anxiety, and burnout. The event industry ecosystem is facing a critical moment, and we have a responsibility to mandate the education that will help everyone recognize problems and respond to them rather than trigger those who have no one to speak to.Psychological safety training is the only way that we can save events, meetings, hospitality and incentive travel professionals from the fear, shame and stigma that exists within the workplaces that far too many are struggling and enduring every single day. We must End Workplace Abuse.I have an action plan. I need your voices to make complex things simple. I want to amplify your messages and get you in front of our industry leaders who think that mental health is an HR problem.  Emotional intelligence is not something that any of us are born with.  But it is something we can learn to embrace that will support so many who are suffering in silence.  It's time to pull the bandaid off and stop listening to the lip service paid to our industry to make leaders feel better about themselves instead of their employees.Join me and use your voice to advocate and create awareness.  Your support will be a gift to an industry that people feel passionate about.  But at what cost?I love Events, I Love People and I am Grateful to be on this  mission

"On The Road," presented by Smart Meetings is a series of industry insiders who travelled to destinations that speak to luxury, bespoke experiences, breathtaking scenery, culinary adventures and getaways that evoke discovery.

This story is about six industry professionals who embarked on an emotional luxury tour in Scotland, sponsored by the maestro of orchestration, founder and culture champion Bill Thomson of Hello Scotland and Jenn Whittle sales and marketing manager.

What separates this travel experience is the DMC who crafted an intersection of tranquility and brilliance. Shout out to Kate Zaliznock, editor at Smart Meetings, who gave Event Minds Matter Empowered by Club Ichi an opportunity to spotlight a trip of a lifetime.

Milestone Moments:

"Scotland filled my lungs with fresh air and my heart with gratitude, a powerful reminder that connection, like wellness, starts with presence."
Anca Platon Trifan, CMP, WMEP 

"This trip was a great reminder of how important it is to weave local culture and history into your programs to bring a deeper level of connection and emotional luxury to the forefront. Going well beyond just bagpipes and Scotch, the people we met along our journey brought the experience to life and touched our hearts. " Liz Lathan, CMP.

Reflective: “Growth doesn’t always look graceful — sometimes it looks like stalling out on a Scottish hillside before finding your rhythm.”
Creative: “The best experiences aren’t designed for perfection — they’re designed for connection.”
Personal & Mindful: “Discomfort is just clarity in disguise — breathe through it, and the magic follows.” Purpose-Driven: “Experience design isn’t about the wow — it’s about creating space for people to feel something real.”
Kellie Blank

"Scotland reinforced that authentic culture and thoughtful details drive unforgettable events, and recently learning about my Scottish roots made that insight feel especially personal." Wendy Porter

"The best part of my Scottish experience was learning from Amanda H., of Cameron House, Loch Lomond, Scotland, that we would be having a craic on good time. (And yes it's pronounced "crack") Amanda went on to explain that In Scottish, "crack" means fun, entertainment, gossip, or good conversation. The spelling "craic" is an Irish Gaelic-inspired spelling of the same word, which is commonly used in Scotland and Ireland and is associated with social fun and entertainment. And that was what me and my travel mates did. Especially that one night at the bar in Edinburgh... but that is a story for another time..." Kimberly Kapustein

It's a mad world: Associations shouldn't pretend it isn't
Opinion:  Anna Abdelnoor 💡

"An association’s role isn’t just to promote the sector or manage reputation. It's to help members make sense of what's happening ...

ALERT INDUSTRY Colleagues:  What you're about to read is the best summary of the truth that I have seen in four years.  It raises my eyebrows. 

The largest associations are not treating members with the acknowledgment, respect or appreciation they deserve unless of course your part of the clique.  

The impact that certain associations have had on humans who pay to be members has prompted articles like this to be written and read. 

There are many cases of bullying, sabotaging, and gaslighting causing emotional pain which is not what event professionals expect when they join.  My own experience amongst many others deserves to be brought into the light this year.  Just like SHRM, what lurks under the surface is injustice, unexceptable, and unsafe.

Here you go and if you don't want to believe what Anna Abdelnoor 💡
is saying, then you need hearing aids and magnifying lenses.

I dedicate this story to every single industry professional who has ever experienced an attack on their character, their goodwill, and their kindness.

What began four years ago as a mission, has culminated in a plethora of experiences driven by all of you who continue to support my vision and my passion for mental health.

When you choose a sensitive topic like I did, people shut their doors, go MIA and pretend that you don't exist.  You try, you get in their face, you scream, you tear your hair out, everything to get attention so that you can advocate and create awareness of what is really going on, but you quickly learn that tip-toeing over tulips does not change anything.  

From advocate to activist is my story.  There are two women in my life who stood by me through thick and thin and if I could reach beyond this screen and hug them both I would.  Annette Gregg, CMM MBA CIS and Liz Lathan, CMP have been with me through the long haul, the tears, the laughter and the struggle to get our industry to recognize and respond to the plethora of problems caused by the lack of psychological safety and emotional intelligence training everyone needs.

To my partner Anna Sverdlik, PhD of Melioscope who supported my focus group, created the survey and who will design the curriculum for launch this May during mental health awareness month, I adore you for believing in my mission.

To Liz who wrote the results of our survey so profoundly and poignantly for both the Events Industry Council and SITE who posted it today, I am very grateful for you being by my side.

This is a story to read and to invest in. While we hope that the EIC will allow credit be given to those who take our course who are also taking their CMP, CMM, and CITP, we can't guarantee it. 

This course is a labour of love, years of advocacy and dedication to everyone who has ever experienced mental health in their workplace.  

To the ones who said and I quote, "she will never pull it off." Look at me now. Your support never mattered.

Stay tuned for what comes next. https://lnkd.in/eun3ebhZ

Happy Birthday to all of the Capricorns celebrating this month.  There are many of you, and while I HATE January birthdays, I am stuck with it even if I try to have it in July.

I made it another year and yes I have passed the mid 60's mark and am now getting price reductions because of it.  I can shop at the drug store on Thursdays and get 20% off.  The theater is cheaper.  Healthcare is cheaper.  I finally get some money back from the government that I have been paying into longer than most people have been alive.

I will celebrate in my favourite hotel The Four Seasons and eat at Buca's newest location.  There is also the new powder Room on Yorkville Ave. which sounds sexy and I think I might have to check that out.  There is no falling asleep early  (REMO) because I am still a night owl and I feel young.

Happy Birthday to me.
Event Minds Matter Empowered by Club Ichi

People have asked why I am offering a course on emotional intelligence training in conjunction with psychological safety?

The answer is easy.  Your team leaders, and co-workers are afraid to ask the question when they see you out of sorts. Your association educators think that sending you to HR is the best answer because, "and this is fact," "they don't think that event professionals have the time or patience to handle it, and I quote."

There is a big difference between empathy and sympathy.  If not taught, this industry will fail miserably when it comes to human sustainability, trust and safety.  

This coming May, Mental Health Awareness Month, I am proud to offer the industry the first of its kind course that combines both psychological safety and emotional intelligence in an online course that will support recognizing and responding to problems in the workplace without triggering those you work with.

Harvard Business Review's article explains why this is vital and an action that all associations, communities, organizations and people need to take to future proof their careers and protect themselves and their talent. It's no longer enough for industry professionals to take their education and certify without having this training.

Anyone can educate and certify, but without understanding mental health in the workplace, you can't possibly lead and prioritize what matters to people.

Club Ichi will be the first to sell this course and I don't think that there could have been a better fit.

I put my age to the test this past weekend for my birthday and it brought back memories of years gone by.

My BFF, Remo Cardinale, best husband, asked me what I would like to do for my birthday.  It was easy to share my wish list while he fulfilled my gift.

The Staycay: Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts Toronto.  There are a lot of words that can describe the welcome when you pull up, but when you walk inside it's how everyone makes you feel.  Thank you Lina Marchesano who I have known for more years than I can count.  You are the curator of all things fabulous. and you made it special.  The room was stunning with a view to kill for.

A stop at the DBar for a French Martini is indulgent but two made it perfect.  Thank you Marisela Gutierrez assistant bar manager for engaging us and taking the time for a hearty conversation.  

The Dinner: Buca Yorkville which is no more than 20 steps from the hotel was the right space, with a lovely atmosphere and food we both indulged in.  My angel hair pasta with lobster was so good .  This is a quaint and romantic place that is very boutique-ish.

The End: Last but not least, we went to the newly opened Powder Room in Yorkville thanks to Liberty Entertainment Group. Very well appointed with every detail in mind.  Red Velvet couches felt nostalgic and the vintage look was present in the chairs, tables, accessories, and lighting. Definitely a mystique to the vibe. The secret elevator to the second floor made me curious.  The bar which is extremely long and beautiful was busy but the piece de resistance are the cocktails which I dove into.  

The Cocktail: Midnight Muse is a gin based drink but what makes this fun is the led coaster the drink sits on that lights it up like a blue sky. Somewhat sweet but fun.  Then I had to try the birthday suit which my husband encouraged me to have because it came in a bathtub. "As if he doesn't have enough of these tub toys from his days in the plumbing hardware biz." The presentation of this drink is unexpected and the bubbles make it fascinating, but the taste not so much.  Back to my espresso martini which they make to perfection. We met a group of young men who bought us drinks and the best bartender "Fernando", is a master cocktail maker. Watching him is like watching a canvas being painted.  Brilliant.

The Entertainment:  A female singer, backed by a small trio came for one set and it was so good.  It's tough when everyone is talking so loud to hear her well, but what I heard was smooth and bluesy.

By the time we got back to our hotel room, we both fell on the bed and had the best sleep.  I loved every minute of it and I don't care if I end up as the oldest person in the room.  I am a party girl at heart.

Psychological safety and Emotional Intelligence are not a privilege — they're a human right.

Do you believe that? Does it matter to you?

True Story:  I was told by an association executive that psychological Safety is an HR problem and that Event Profs don't have time to deal with it.

"That's a cop out!"

Are you Psychologically Safe In Your Workplace?
"The belief that one will not be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns, or mistakes, and that the team is safe for interpersonal risk taking" Amy Edmondson, Harvard University 1999

Psychological Safety is the foundation for high performing teams and resilient organisations. When people on a team possess psychological safety, they feel able to ask for help, admit mistakes, raise concerns, suggest ideas, and challenge ways of working and the ideas of others on the team, including the ideas of those in authority. Via this honesty and openness, risks are reduced, new ideas are generated, the team is able to execute on those ideas and everyone feels included. Building psychological safety not only improves organisational outcomes, but it’s the right thing to do.  

Do you work with Empathetic Leaders at your Workplace? 

Emotional intelligence means being smarter with feelings. Just like mathematical intelligence allows you to solve complex numerical puzzles, emotional intelligence enables us to solve complex emotional challenges. A key component of this is the practice of using emotions as data — noticing, understanding, and responding to emotions with clarity and purpose. It’s not about being overly emotional or always staying calm. It’s about being aware of how feelings influence decisions, relationships, and performance — and learning how to use that awareness to lead a more effective and fulfilling life.

Event Minds Matter Empowered by Club Ichi and Melioscope have answered the call after four years of advocacy, awareness, trying to build brave spaces and supporting thousands in this industry who are filled with fear, shame and continued stigma.  It is our responsibility as leaders, mentors and coaches to help people recognize and respond to problems in the workplace.  "STOP Leaders from triggering you."

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we will release our first course designed specifically for the industry by the industry.  Stay tuned and show your support for this with your comments.  Now your voices matter.

Yesterday I attended a job seeking event with Club Ichi.  I really just wanted to listen and support where I could. This story might help.

Twilio CEO interviews candidates for 45 minutes over dinner. He’s listening for one word in particular—and you’re not hired if you say it too much

If landing a job or promotion is high on your to-do list, there’s one word you need to say way less of.

You can polish your résumé, practice a firm handshake, and even take on stretch opportunities to talk about, but if you start every conversation in the interview with “I” or “me” then it can cost you that step up the ladder or being called back.

It’s perhaps surprising since job seekers are often encouraged to avoid using “we” too much, as it can sound passive. But when it comes to management roles, leading every anecdote with “I” or “when I was in charge of” can actually backfire.

Twilio CEO says that he interviews senior hires for 45 minutes over dinner and is listening out exactly for that. In his eyes, it’s a clear red flag that the candidate is more of a solo act than a team leader—and he’s already doubting their ability to drive results through others.

He says: “I don’t really think that demonstrates leadership particularly well. What I do is easy because people are supposed to listen to me. I can bark orders and ideally they follow them,” he said. “But the hard leadership is when you’re not in charge. How do you get people, through data, passion, charisma, persuasion,… to do things? I really try to test for that.”

You don’t have to take his word alone. Verizon’s chief talent officer, previously worked at the CIA, where she assessed people and personalities. Today, she’s responsible for the hiring and career growth of over 100,000 people at a Fortune 500 firm. And because of her previous training, she’s adept at reading between the lines and catching the subtle cues in how you interact.

She said: “I definitely pay attention to the intangible details that aren’t just the direct answers to the questions,” she shared, adding that she’s watching how you treat everyone you greet, regardless of seniority.

And then there’s the coffee test, which employers are using to test even the most junior candidates on whether or not they’re a team player.

So if you’re looking for a green flag that you’re ready for promotion, remember: Hiring managers aren’t just listening to what you’ve done—they’re watching how you treat and talk about the people who helped you get there.

The charity, which has over 650 job centers, saw over 2 million people use its employment services last year—and it’s getting ready for even more.
They said: “We are preparing for a flux of unemployed young people—as well as other people—from AI,” adding that automation will hit low-wage and entry-level roles the worst.
