10 Ways Social Media Will Transform Events in 2010

Very similar to my points during last years meeting of the MPI in Amsterdam RAI. Check out my slides (in Dutch) from that presentation here: http://speakonomy.com/lezing/17/revolutie-in-communicatie/

Attendees will not wait for microphones to ask questions. They will text or tweet those questions as they think of them.

Attendees will answer questions for the speaker – while she is talking.

Attendees will tell you that the speaker stinks, the ice sculpture is melting and the croissants are stale – in real time.

Attendees will expect to connect with other delegates before, during and after the event

Virtual attendees will start using social media to engage with your content and the onsite face-to-face attendees

Attendees will want a voice in the discussion, learning and decision making process

New events will emerge from online communities

Attendees will register for your event if their contacts are attending.

Events will become communities that last for weeks and months rather than a few short days

Sharable content will be the way that your event is discovered by new attendees.

1. I wish we would stop stuffing people in chairs in rows and making them listen to speakers for 5 hours.

2. I wish that the meetings industry would invest more to create conversations and experiences that resemble the future of meetings.

3. I wish hotels and venues made conference WIFI and LAN services more affordable for meeting organizers.

4. I wish that your event website was social media friendly and designed for mobile devices

5. I wish that I could transfer all of the crazy ideas for interaction and collaboration in my brain to your boss’s brain.

Between 1980 and 1995 Europe protected 12 million governmental jobs, and in the process of fostering stasis lost 5 million jobs in the private sector. The United States, fostering flux, saw a staggering 44 million old jobs disappear from the private sector. But 73 million new jobs were generated, for a net gain of 29 million, and in the process the United States kept its 12 million government jobs, too. If you can stand the turmoil, flux triumphs.

This notion of constant flux is familiar to ecologists and those who manage large networks. The sustained vitality of a complex network requires that the net keep provoking itself out of balance.
