Conferences

In an effort to learn more about the conferencing
behaviours of Fortune 1000 executives, Goodman
Lantern conducted a survey. We featured 191
top-level panelists. Certainly, our main aim was
to discover why these executives choose to attend
certain business events. Also, how they research
upcoming conferences and what motivates them to
participate as exhibitors or sponsors rather than
attending in an observational capacity.

Determining the Worth of Attending Conferences
  • An overwhelming 62.6 of respondents choose to
    attend conferences based on the quality of
    marketing and communication received before the
    event. The second-most popular method, ranking at
    41.3, of decision-making in this regard is
    learning about these events from colleagues.

Reasons for Attending an Event
  • One of our main motivators in conducting this
    survey was to discover why Fortune 1000
    executives attend certain conferences. To
    clarify, most of our panelists, around 68.9,
    claimed that these events presented a wealth of
    networking opportunities. Thats clearly a
    driving force behind making their decisions. The
    runner-up reason for attending events was to meet
    experts and speakers face-to-face, a motivating
    factor for nearly 31 of our panelists. At least
    21.1 of the executives interviewed stated that
    they saw event attendance as a way to invest in
    themselves and their professional endeavours.

5
Motivation for Sponsoring or Exhibiting at an
Event
  • Firstly, according to 51.3 of our participants,
    industry reports and knowledge produced at the
    event form the bulk of their motivation for
    exhibiting at or sponsoring an event. The
    next-highest motivator, 39.9, for our panelists
    was the quality of attendees. Additionally, 22.6
    of our survey participants stated that a speaking
    slot was motivation enough for attending a
    conference.
