risk is that clients may choose to cancel or postpone events or look for cheaper and shorter alternatives. For event planners, the challenge is one of creating 'must keep' events that their internal and external clients dare not cancel. To do this, planners will need to think about how they can deliver events that provide lasting benefits, in a faster, cheaper and more imaginative way.
