Bea World Festival – Where Creativity Meets Business is a once-in-a-year opportunity to stay up-to-date with the changing landscape of events and live communication: a great opportunity to learn from experts and industry leaders, to see the world’s best-in-class events live and network with peers and influencers.
This year the festival will be held on November 22 and 23, in Coimbra, Portugal, where apart from the educational program the annual awards will be presented for the best events globally.
“In a global and digital world we experience rapid changes. New technologies and practices are introduced and what we learned yesterday usually becomes obsolete by the time we’re ready to start applying it to our job. It is a life-long learning process and we have to focus on developing creative skills that are crucial in adapting to this ever-changing reality”, explains Ilka Dzeik, Senior Partner of the Event ROI Institute and strategic advisor of Bea World Festival. “We call this ‘Creative Thinking – The Art of Breaking Routines’, others call it innovation, mainly it is all about making new connections between existing ideas. Inspired by this theme, we want participants to build communities and to find ways to look at and solve problems from a different perspective, avoiding orthodox solutions and thinking outside the box to innovate their events.“

Bea World Festival also offers a variety of facilitated networking opportunities. Through NetworkTables, the online solution for table seating, delegates will, for example, have the chance to decide whom they want to meet at lunch and reserve a seat at a hosted table to discuss a specific topic (“Star Talk & Lunch”). Or they can “Pick a Brain” and schedule a 15 minute 1-on-1 meeting with Bea World Jury members and speakers.
