Just when you think you've figured out hybrid, the Metaverse presents itself as the new frontier for the events world to conquer.

It's more about integrating these practices into your every day.""No great entrepreneur was born. This is a whole paradigm shift we need to have as a culture. You look at some iconic figures that have achieved larger than life legacies (Richard Branson, Nelson Mandela, Michelangelo or Oprah Winfrey)...
