IMEX America 2025

IMEX America is the largest trade show for the global meetings, events and incentive travel industry.  The show brings the meetings industry together to do a year’s worth of business under one roof. Suppliers and buyers from every sector of the meetings industry come together at IMEX, held at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, Las Vegas.

IAPCO is proud to contribute to this year’s education programme by hosting the session:
“The workplace revolution: Bridging generational gaps for future-ready meetings”
📅 Tuesday, 7 October | 🕒 15:30
📍 Inspiration Hub, Mandalay Bay | People and Planet Theater, Stand F247

IAPCO Council Member Ajay Bhojwani, Regional Managing Director-Middle East & Africa, MCI Group (IAPCO Member), will curate and lead a dynamic panel with:

🔹Iva Popova, Marketing Communications Manager, Kenes Group

🔹Scott Ventresca, HMCC, Sales Director, Citywide Meetings, Global Esports and Major Sporting Events, Destination Toronto (IAPCO Destination Partner)

🔹Vamshi Velmajala, Managing Director at Snapsight (IAPCO Service Partner)

The business events industry is undergoing a seismic shift. With five generations now active in the workforce—and Gen Z set to lead by 2030—meeting professionals must rethink how they design experiences and build agile teams. Explore how evolving attendee expectations are reshaping event formats. Discover practical ways to create inclusive, engaging environments that resonate across age groups and align with the future of work.

Learning outcomes:

🔹 Design for a multigenerational audience

🔹Leverage data and technology to better understand the next-gen client

🔹Build future-ready teams: Identify the essential skills and mindsets needed

Join us for an engaging conversation exploring how generational diversity is shaping the future of meetings — and what it means for organisers, stakeholders, and delegates alike.
