Mind the Gap! A Safe Space to Co-Create Future-Proof Businesses – IMEX Frankfurt 2025

What a fantastic session we had at the Joint Association Partners Next Gen Workshop! 

‘Mind the Gap! A safe space to co-create ideas to future-proof businesses was an insightful, interactive workshop where members of @IAPCO, @AMCI, @AIPC, and IFES – International Federation of Exhibition & Event Services gathered to tackle the leadership career gap. Participants engaged in dynamic small-group activities, brainstorming practical solutions for bridging generational divides and shaping the future of leadership in the meetings industry.

Highlights included:

  • Succession planning in challenging times
  • Defining what ‘future-proof’ means for different stakeholders
  • Exploring ideas to bridge the generation gap in leadership
  • Defining what ‘success’ looks like for each of us

A special thanks to the Hong Kong Tourism Board (Discover Hong Kong), workshop sponsor, for supporting this event, and to all the participants who contributed their valuable insights. It was a collaborative effort that helped set the stage for more innovative solutions in the industry.


Looking forward to future opportunities to engage and continue our mission of Unlocking Excellence together.
