LiveCom Alliance European Industry Survey 2025 now open to industry friends

LiveCom Alliance European Industry Survey 2025 now open to industry friends

LiveCom Alliance European Industry Survey is aiming to capture the major trends and impact drivers for our industry since 2016. The first three years we basically created a ‘snapshot’ by looking into existing national studies. From 2019 – thanks to our strategic partner BOE International –  the study is conducted by R.I.F.E.L. e. V. – Research Institute for Exhibition and Live-Communication RIFEL, giving us a detailed understanding of the structure, characteristics and future trends of our industry. In hindsight this gave us a revealing pre- and post COVID benchmark.

In 2025, the study will continue examining quantitative trends, but we will prioritize a qualitative and content-oriented view of significant strategic topic: internationalization.

Because in today’s rapidly evolving global market, internationalization can be a path for growth for single companies and the whole sector. Internationalization offers numerous attractive benefits, including access to new markets, diversified revenue streams and the ability to leverage global talent. However, internationalization also presents various challenges and hurdles, such as complex regulatory environments, cultural differences, and logistical issues to name a few. Hence, this study seeks to create a snapshot on internationalization in the sector and explore companies‘ perspectives towards the potential opportunities, but also potential barriers associated with internationalization. The study furthermore dives into the best practices of international operations, thereby aiming to provide valuable insights and practical recommendations for industry stakeholders. If you are not operating internationally and/or aiming to expand internationally, it’s still valuable and insightful to participate and learn from this study.
