I can’t wait to connect at IBC!

By Ana-Claire Bernardes, Content Evangelist, IABM

The Global Engagement Program (GEP) is a cornerstone initiative designed to foster connections within the MediaTech community. As industry professionals, we understand the significance of building and maintaining relationships, especially during major events and trade shows. These gatherings offer unparalleled opportunities to meet existing and new contacts, discuss industry opportunities and challenges, and showcase the latest technological developments and innovations.?

The excitement is palpable with IBC just around the corner. IBC is a premier event for the MediaTech industry, drawing passionate?professionals from all over the globe. It's a place where ideas are exchanged, collaborations are formed, and the future of media technology is shaped. The event is both intense and invigorating, providing a unique blend of exhaustion and energy. The long days are filled with insightful presentations, product demonstrations, and networking opportunities, while the evenings often extend into lively discussions over dinner and drinks.?

The importance of connecting as a community during such events cannot be overstated. During these moments, we can share our experiences, learn from each other, and support one another in navigating the ever-evolving landscape of MediaTech. The GEP program plays a crucial role in enhancing this experience. The program provides access to exclusive lounges and ensures that professionals have a dedicated space to host meetings, conduct meet-and-greets, or simply rest between sessions.?

The IABM lounge at IBC is designed to be a haven amidst the hustle and bustle of the event. Here, attendees can relax, recharge, and engage in meaningful conversations in a more intimate setting. Whether you're looking to catch up with old friends or make new connections, the lounge offers a conducive environment for networking and collaboration.?

As we gear up for IBC, let’s embrace this special opportunity to connect, share, and innovate together. The GEP program is committed to making your experience at IBC not just productive, but also enjoyable and memorable.??

If you are already a GEP, I would love to see you there to discuss collaboration opportunities. If you would like to become a GEP, let me know, as I would love to see you there and introduce you to the IABM and our GEP program.?

The IABM Member Lounge, located in the?Forum Lounge?and accessible through?Entrance E, provides an exclusive retreat for IABM members and GEPs. This dedicated space offers refreshments and WiFi, making it ideal for members to connect with clients and partners or simply relax and take a break from the bustling show floor.?
