On this episode we’re in conversation with Andy Hickinbotham from Human Built, an event and exhibition experiential agency that has risen up through this pandemic. If you don’t already, you should follow them on social (links below) as not only have they got a great brand style and identity, but they’re sharing many useful tips or ideas that you could think about with your own events or businesses especially for when we return to live. 

Andy is part of the Human Built team which is tied together by the things they love and I could argue we all love about our events industry…bringing people together face to face. 

In this episode, we are going to be talking about what event design looks like when we come back to f2f as well as new ideas that we should be exploring for commercialization of events. 

We talk about:

• Design – what does design look like when we get back to face to face
• The five senses – are they going to be disrupted when we return? 
• Experience – how do we make our events accessible to every participant no matter their ability
• Sustainability from social, economical and ecological point of view
• People’s psychology has changed over the last 12 months – how do we adapt? 
• Commercialization – thinking beyond a three day event to a 6 or 12 month show as well as opportunities for shared costs

We also talk briefly about our people of the events industry... what's next for them!

We hope you enjoy the episode.
