Cvent has recently published an e-book around the top 15 meeting and event trends for 2021 and recommendations to accelerate venue business recovery. The 24 page document can be downloaded here (PDF).

The trends report draws a quite optimistic picture. According to the authors, MICE and transient business begins to emerge from the uncertainty of Covid-19 to build a new and more resilient meetings and events industry.

The key trends identified by Cvent are:
