Live events are changing, and MPI’s WEC Grapevine is providing the blueprint. Presented both live in-person and live digitally (no canned, pre-recorded content), WEC Grapevine is a first-of-its-kind experience; two events, planned and executed simultaneously with one remarkable takeaway—to move our profession into recovery. The learnings are focused on what you need now, in an environment tailored to the future of how attendees will engage. It’s the can’t-miss event for people who produce events. And we’ll do it safely. Creating a worry-free in-person experience is our top priority. Our Duty of Care ensures that we’re working to provide optimal health and sanitary conditions throughout the event. Register so you can reconnect with your peers, live from Texas-either in-person or digitally—and reunite for your industry’s recovery.
