"We are honoured to have such high-calibre speakers and visionaries at our 2019 European Influencers Summit to demonstrate how business events organisations can continue to grow and drive global economic and social progress," said Luca Favetta, PCMA regional business director for EMEA.

European Influencers Summit

The 2019 event will be PCMA’s third European Influencers Summit, which convenes organisations that don’t traditionally meet concurrently. The exclusive programme is designed to help EMEA’s mature business events industry understand external and internal disruptors and deliver solutions to ensure success. The European Influencers Summit, held at the Centre Convencions Internacional Barcelona, will feature a unique approach to education. Invitation-only master classes will connect association executives with strategic advisors. Off-site learning tours will take participants out of the traditional meeting room and into different venues throughout Barcelona. An “Ideathon” will have all attendees participate in a workshop to co-create solutions related to product and service innovation.
