What will you learn today that can change your career?

Live Think Tank Events

Picture
The Think Tanks Events are a series of networking meetings across North America (soon to be worldwide!) that bring together senior-level meeting & event planners to address challenges and opportunities in our industry.  Content is "crowd-sourced," meaning we ask the attendees what is timely and important to discuss, then we select the top three or four topics and discuss them in a rotating round table format.  There's also time to introduce yourself and your own unique challenges to the group.   

The series currently visits 13 U.S. cities plus Toronto, and will expand further when membership warrants. Approximately 20-40 attendees typically gather in each city.  

The Think Tank series is open to all senior-level planners with at least 10 years of experience (SPIN membership is not required, but the experience level is).  SUPPLIERS may only attend if they are a Think Tank sponsor.  In keeping with our planner-centric focus, there is a limit of six sponsor companies at each event (the average is three).

Virtual Think Tank Events

The Virtual Think Tanks Events are webinars that have been designed to provide discussion and solutions that address the pressing challenges of our industry.  The topics for discussion come from the members of SPIN.  We host separate Virtual Think Tanks for Planners and Suppliers – each addressing separate concerns for both groups.   Please click on the appropriate link below to see our current offerings.

“This was an awesome experience! I’m truly honored and appreciated the opportunity to share the virtual space (stage) with true professionals in the industry. I’m encouraged as attendees seemed very engaged and interested in the dialogue of this topic and really wanted to hear our prospective."
