A Thriving Industry with Room for Growth
The major events industry is fast-paced, exciting, and packed with opportunities, but it isn’t as diverse as it could (or should) be.
- 61% of event professionals identify as white (Event Industry Council )
- Only 15% of senior roles are held by Black professionals
- Women make up 59% of the workforce, yet just 8% hold leadership roles (NOWIE )
At Trivandi, we know diverse teams drive innovation, enrich storytelling, and deliver stronger results. A thriving, resilient industry needs to reflect a variety of cultures, backgrounds, and experiences to create unforgettable major event experiences for everyone.
If we want the industry to grow and evolve, we must break down barriers to entry, champion inclusion at every stage, and open clear pathways for the next generation of major event professionals.
The future of major events depends on the talent of tomorrow. Find out how we can all help build a more inclusive, accessible and thriving industry.
