The duo traces Solaris’ journey in the event industry, discussing why he left the media sphere to join the massively popular tech platform. They also explore how the new event platforms are empowering the participant and are influencing post-COVID event design in dramatic ways. Solaris shares why he thinks technology will continue to be where major investments are made that enable connections both online and in-person—and why the future belongs to the flexible visionaries who want to keep up with the latest tech tools for events of all types.
