There was a time when location, location, location was everything. There was a time when swift talk at a trade show was pretty much everything needed to close a venue deal. It seems that these times are over.

The changes in the current political, economic and technological climate has impacted the way event professionals select venues forever. Destinations that could rely on a strong brand name are now faced with security threats, phenomena like the sharing economy giving more access to better deals, and the rise of venue search technology giving more control to event planners.
