The Movement
The Nineteen Shadow Board is a 12-month, project-based collective of next-generation event professionals who want to shape the conversation, not wait their turn. Nominated by agency leaders, the Shadow Board comes together to share insights, challenge industry norms, and shape the future of the events sector. With representation from top agencies, this next gen community provides a platform for fresh perspectives, hands on collaboration, and Industry wide problem solving.
