Abstract

In recent decades, the global events industry market has grown exponentially in terms of the number of organized events, the total number of participants and those involved in this sector, and its contribution to job creation and GDP formation has become increasingly significant. Studies carried out before the COVID-19 pandemic have shown a series of trends in this sector, such as the reduction in the number of participants in international meetings of organizations. The restrictions introduced during the pandemic period have led to other trends, such as the increase in the number of online or hybrid events. This trend is expected to continue, within limits, when the pandemic restrictions are lifted. However, it seems that many participants in the events continue to want to be present "in-person" whenever possible. The analysis of these trends is of great importance to this industry’s stakeholders.
