The speed with which the COVID-19 pandemic hit the business world – and the totality of its damaging effects in every corner of the hospitality, destination marketing, travel and live events sectors – cannot be overstated. To get a sense of the pandemic’s impact, PCMA (Professional Convention Management Association) Convene sent an email invitation on March 31st to its database of event planners and suppliers to participate in a survey on how they are reacting and their expectations moving forward. Within a day, more than 1,200 people had participated.
The data and open-ended responses provide fresh insights about industry resilience and a clear-eyed look at what the next few months and remainder of 2020 may hold in store.
