Our Top Five Takeaways From IMEX America 2024

Oct 17, 2024 | Corporate

We’ve just returned from an unforgettable week in Vegas for IMEX America, and we’re still buzzing with excitement. As always, it was the perfect chance to catch up with industry friends, show off our global expertise along with our sister company EventEQ, and get the lowdown on the latest trends and innovations shaking things up in the events world.

Here are our top five takeaways from this year’s show:

Sustainability is Non-Negotiable

Always top of the agenda, and rightly so, sustainability remains a huge priority for event attendees and suppliers alike. People are demanding eco-friendly events, and companies are expected to demonstrate their commitment to responsible practices. From sustainable venue selection and waste reduction to ethical equipment sourcing and carbon offsetting, there are many ways weā€™re all striving to make events more environmentally friendly.

AI is Here to Stay (and It’s Awesome!)

Artificial intelligence (AI) isn’t just a futuristic concept anymore; It’s a practical tool revolutionising the events industry. From automating repetitive admin tasks to delivering personalised attendee experiences and providing valuable insights, AI is changing the game for event planners. At Pixl, we use AI in our event performance analysis tool, Knw., to measure audience sentiment, engagement, and attention. This data empowers event planners with valuable insights into what works and what doesn’t, enabling them to create more compelling and impactful event experiences.

Collaboration is Key

Successful events are all about strong partnerships between event organisers, suppliers, and venues. Gone are the days of just hiring vendors. Today’s event professionals are looking for partners who can contribute meaningfully to an event’s overall success. By building collaborative relationships, organisers can tap into a wealth of expertise, resources, and innovative ideas. This collaborative approach not only enhances the overall quality of events but also strengthens our industry as a whole.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in Events is Essential

Events are powerful platforms for connection and community, but to be genuinely accessible, organisers must prioritise diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Event technology is crucialā€”hybrid formats help those with disabilities or living in remote areas participate, while services like captioning and translation ensure content is understandable for all. But technology alone isn’t enough; addressing underlying discrimination and bias in the industry is a collective responsibility.

Lifelong Learning is a Must

The events industry is constantly evolving, so professionals need to stay up to date on the latest trends and best practices. IMEX America offered a whole host of educational opportunities, from panel discussions and workshops to networking events and product demos. At Pixl, weā€™re also passionate about the power of lifelong learning and have our in-house learning platform, the CoiL Learning Centre, to support our team members and the broader industry in their professional development.

Recap: Tech & Connect at Big Sky Studios

Jul 30, 2024 | Corporate

We were thrilled to host our inaugural Tech & Connect event at Big Sky Studios earlier this month, and the response was phenomenal! Attendees, including creatives and experience planners, had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the dynamic spaces, explore the cutting-edge capabilities of our LED screen, and glean valuable insights from industry experts.

In case you missed out, fear not ā€“ we’ve got you covered. Here are our top five highlights:

Beyond a Studio: Unveiling Big Sky’s Potential

Central Londonā€™s largest full-service creative campus, Big Sky Studios, is a photographerā€™s dream. But did you know itā€™s also an event plannerā€™s playground? Studio 10, home to our incredible 9m x 3.5m curved LED screen, is perfect for people planning in-person, hybrid or virtual events. From live-streaming global product launches to hosting engaging town halls, the possibilities are endless. And with an array of excellent on-site facilities, such as the Big Sky Kitchen, your attendees are bound to be impressed by more than just your content. And trust us, having sampled many canapes, we can attest to this!

Embracing the Era of Hybrid Events

Hybrid events, once a pandemic necessity, have evolved into a strategic choice for event planners. While they may evoke memories of lockdowns and digital fatigue, their value is undeniable. By combining in-person experiences with virtual accessibility, these events cater to diverse audiences, expanding reach and engagement. Event planners recognise the potential to increase attendance, collect valuable data, and offer flexible participation options. A versatile studio space becomes an invaluable asset in this landscape, providing the technical infrastructure to seamlessly broadcast live content, conduct virtual interactions, and create immersive experiences.

 

Harnessing the Power of Data

A hot topic at our event was the pivotal role of data in modern event planning. In today’s data-driven landscape, it’s paramount for event planners to be equipped to track and evaluate the success of their events. The discussions centred on AI-powered tools such as Knw, which use industry-standard video cameras to adeptly analyse audience sentiment, engagement and demographic behaviour. By employing data analytics such as this, event planners gain valuable insights into what works and what doesn’t, enabling them to create more compelling and impactful event experiences.

LED Screens: A Photographer’s Ultimate Asset

In a time where maximising resources is paramount, our LED screen emerges as a game-changer. Capable of instant background changes at the click of a button, this top-tier ROE Ruby 2.3 screen is a photographer and videographer’s dream. With its extraordinary image quality and versatility, courtesy of a 2.3mm pixel pitch, it delivers impeccably sharp and detailed images, essential for capturing even the finest details in photos and videos. Moreover, with 1500 nits of brightness, the screen effortlessly handles various lighting conditions, ensuring accurate colour reproduction.

 

Collaboration with Suppliers: A Recipe for Success

As an in-house supplier at Big Sky Studios, our expert team intimately understands the space and its capabilities. Whether it’s maximising the screen’s potential or delivering the perfect streaming package for your project, we consider ourselves an extension of your teamā€”your go-to technical experts dedicated to ensuring that your project unfolds seamlessly.
