Bigger focus on data is changing the role of event professionals
Moore said: “We have witnessed more and more emphasis being placed on the data we handle, from invitation lists, to event registration information and data collected for post-event billing. This is essentially just the transactional data generated as part of any event and excludes the delegate experience information. In recent years this has evolved to include the added complexity of disclosure data for our healthcare clients.”
He added: “The density of data is intensifying at a rapid rate as the user experience is becoming a more prevalent part of pre-, peri- and post-planning. The need to provide delegates...

Dan Walker speaks to Conference News about his current role and career to date
What was your first career ‘wish’ when you left school?
After football (and I was never going to be good enough) my first love was music and I wanted to be a radio DJ. I also toyed with the idea of journalism and did some work which combined the two, writing for online music magazines as well as some hospital and student radio.
Tell me about your first job and your subsequent path into the meetings, events and hospitality sphere?
My first job was a promoter for my own club night. However I didn’t make much money so not sure if this can be classed as a job. The need to be compensated for my work took over and I landed...
