It’s often hard to find it worth the time, money and effort required to attend a conference, let alone to choose which one is best for you. We’re always in touch with those in our industries online and we can collaborate without leaving our desks. So why would we bother going to customer experience conferences?

Well, the internet is a great and powerful tool at our disposal, but it’s also nothing quite like the real thing. Conferences and trade shows can refresh your enthusiasm and interest in the industry – meeting likeminded people who understand your battles you face day-to-day can really help. Gain some insights, get to know peers, collaborators and competitors, build relationships across the field.

Not only this, but you can get a look at the current key thought leaders holding talks, and those on their way up who are worth learning from in their successes. The valuable industry insight should help make the cost of the ticket worthwhile, and you’ll keep this knowledge with you for the benefit of your entire business. So which customer experience conference is the one for you? Keep reading for the ones we have our eye on from around the world.
