Events are not enough anymore. Why is everyone betting on communities? This is the question at the heart of a panel session on Buzz Day, taking place tomorrow as part of the new IMEX BuzzHub.

Mehrdad Pourzaki, Senior Movement Communications Specialist at Wikimedia; CEO of Amplified Growth and host of the Association Chat podcast, Kiki L’Italien; Hugh Forrest, Chief Programming Officer at SXSW, and Miguel Neves, Editor in Chief of EventMB, will discuss adopting a community-first approach.
