Unfiltered: The Planner vs. Supplier Reality Check

Industry leaders come together for an honest conversation on how we really partner—who brings what to the table, where things break down, and what needs to change.

This session will explore the realities behind planner and supplier relationships, uncover common pain points, and highlight best practices that drive stronger collaboration.

Attendees will walk away with practical insights and actionable strategies to foster more effective, transparent, and aligned partnerships—strengthening outcomes for your events, your organization, and the broader industry.

This session has been pre-approved for one continuing education credit by the Events Industry Council.
