In the electrifying yet nerve-wracking universe of live event production, a panel of industry experts -- including SXSW's Stephen Light, TED Conferences' Mina Sabet and esports superpower Electronic Arts (EA)'s Joseph Lynch -- open up about the rollercoaster of orchestrating events, where every success is a high-five and every hiccup feels like accidentally walking onstage in your underwear. It's a behind-the-scenes glimpse into an industry more challenging than playing hopscotch on a tightrope, with the need to satisfy both the in-room extroverts and the online introverts. It's like hosting a dinner party for thousands, where the guests range from tech geniuses to someone who just figured out how to unmute themselves on Zoom. https://lnkd.in/ghctExGt

Technology is transforming how sport is broadcast and how fans enjoy it, giving leagues of all kinds a shot at going global. This represents a big opportunity for businesses and an even bigger one for audiences https://lnkd.in/eAZY-y5Z

We’ve all been to those media events where you pay $5,000 for an 8x8 table and put your products on top of a tablecloth for reporters to look at. These events don’t really expose the media to the value of your products. So last year we created our own media event: Carve X. We invited about 50 reporters who got to play with our clients’ toys and games. People were riding our client’s electric scooters up and down the halls. Media loved it, saying they had never experienced something like that before. So this year, we did it again. With a twist, of course. We brought Carve X to Gen Con – the largest tabletop game convention in North America. Instead of being in the middle of the crowded show floor, we set up shop at a local restaurant just minutes from the convention center. We featured the latest games from brands including Upper Deck, Relatable, KessCo, Ultra PRO, Educational Insights, and more. With different gameplay stations set up throughout the venue, our 20+ media members could sit down and take in the essence of the games in a quiet, more relaxed setting. It was nothing short of a success and I’m proud of the team that made it happen – here’s to more Carve X in the future! #publicrelations #teamwork #partnership #mediarelations
