Since the start of 2021, the cred team has grown so much across the company—especially our event and speaker management teams. Since January, we’ve welcomed several new members to cred ready to take the events world by storm—from pitching clients for conferences and speaking opportunities to hands-on event planning!
Here is our first edition announcing some of our newest team members this year that we are thrilled to have on board.
Gathering back together in person is just as exciting as it is a little nerve-wracking, especially when you throw in speaking in front of an audience. Though virtual events are still alive and well, we are starting to see events slowly return to in-person formats. Feeling a little rusty with the return to live events? Here are a few things to keep in mind when you are navigating a live speaking opportunity
After a year and a half of all-virtual-all-the-time, in-person events are starting to make their way onto our fall calendars.
As we begin to plan and attend events again, the top concern on event managers’ minds is how to be certain that these events occur—our events team has compiled 5 strategies to assure your event can happen safely.
For 2022, cred submitted 21 sessions on behalf of our thought leaders, covering topics including fintech, tactics to market to GenZ, closing the talent gap, and personalized medicine. Learn more about each session below. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite session before PanelPicker closes August 26!
With the event industry flipped upside down these past 18 months, there’s a tremendous opportunity to create new best practices, ideas, and innovation. The world just learned to navigate fully virtual events, but now it must tackle a new challenge: invent engagement for hybrid events and recreate excitement for in-person ones.
So what’s new here? We sat down with Gina Michnowicz, CEO & Executive Creative Director of The Craftsman, our agency partner, to get her take on how we can maximize engagement and social strategy when you’re planning your next event. Check out what we learned:
We all know social media can boost thought leadership—but, have you ever thought about highlighting your speaking experience on social media? For speakers, social media platforms like LinkedIn and Twitter can be used to highlight your past speaking engagements, show off your presentation skills, and draw a larger audience to your content.
If you’re a speaker who is not active on social media yet—you should be.
We were thrilled to work with new event client Oyster to bring their two-day Future of Work conference to life July 14-15, 2021. Ascent by Oyster brought together more than 350 attendees from—60+ countries (!!)—that lead distributed work and open the door to higher levels of organizational performance.
