The rise of audio formats in recent years has become increasingly pronounced. Between podcast formats, which are increasingly listened to on Spotify or Apple Music, and new 100% audio social networks like Clubhouse, these formats are making a strong comeback in content creation. In France and around the world, their popularity keeps climbing, particularly for cultural content. So, how
So, what place do event industry contents have in all this? Here's a quick overview of a few international podcasts that cover these topics:
1 - Online events made simple, by EventMind
Online Events Made Simple is, as the name suggests, a podcast dedicated to virtual events.
With condensed episodes of 15 to 30 minutes, often customer testimonials, EventMind shares some keys to success for shifting from physical to virtual events. This show really lets you put yourself in the shoes of an event project manager who wants to learn from the best and gather as many best practices as possible around communication and digital events.
With a steady pace of one episode a week, the podcast already has around forty episodes that will help you (if our blog and our ebook on the topic aren't enough) organize better virtual events.
2 - Eventually, by Tatiana Therrien
Launched on January 16, 2021, this very young podcast is a fairly deep psychological reflection on all the mechanisms brought about by Covid in the event industry.
With a unique and soothing sound atmosphere, its host and creator Tatiana Therrien lets us join her behind the scenes of the event industry. Eventually can be listened to in just 30 minutes, and seems full of promise given the richness of the topics covered.
3 - The Events Insight, by Jack Saward and Ellan Cambell-Swann
The Event Insight is a podcast hosted by a duo, which is rare enough to be worth noting. This creates an effective dynamic where you never get tired of the roughly 30 to 45 minutes per episode.
The pace of one episode a week is demanding, especially since a guest is invited every time. But that doesn't stop Jack and Ellan from getting their guests to share a funny anecdote from their (rich) career in the event industry.
4 - It's all in the plan - the event management podcast
More focused on the academic knowledge of event industry professions, this biweekly podcast aims to prepare future event project managers for all kinds of situations.
The topics explored are therefore fairly general, ranging from crisis management to communication around an event, including negotiation and client relations.
5 - In case of an event, by Hayley Haggarty
Since late January, Hayley Haggarty has been creating a series of podcasts about the event industry as it is, and as it will be.
By interviewing event industry experts about their experiences and their expectations for the future of the industry, Hayley gives us a glimpse of the industry as it will be in the coming years.
With 30-minute episodes, these formats compile tons of useful information for your upcoming events in a concise way.
We hope this non-exhaustive list will help you find the perfect podcast for you, one that's pleasant to listen to in form and full of good advice in substance.
