Unplug and Connect: The Benefits of Attending Corporate Events

Are you tired of staring at your computer screen, day in and day out? Do you miss the thrill of face-to-face interaction and networking with other professionals? Well, fear not! Corporate events are back and better than ever.

Every year, 1.8 million meetings take place in the United States, attracting business travelers from all over the globe. Post-pandemic, companies are more eager than ever to get out of their office and connect with new people. Offering a wealth of opportunities essential for growing and expanding their organization, 84% of business travelers will attend conferences and events this year. 

But it's not just about the numbers. Attending events allows professionals to learn from their competitors, gain insights applicable to their business, and stay up-to-date with the latest trends and technologies. It’s a chance to step outside of your normal circle and engage with professionals who can offer a fresh perspective on your industry.

And let's not forget the international aspect of business travel. The exhibition industry alone features 32,000 exhibitions annually, attracting over 303 million visitors worldwide. Trade shows are particularly popular in the United States, with 13,000 shows taking place each year. US companies plan to attend an average of 7.8 international trade shows annually, proving that businesses are willing to invest in travel to expand their global reach.
