IBTM World 2026 has announced the first details of its conference programme, with the event set to take place from 17–19 November at Fira Barcelona. This year's programme will focus on topics including storytelling, artificial intelligence, creativity, resilience, leadership, and the changing needs of the global events industry.

One of the key announcements is the introduction of the new Skills Exchange, a practical learning and networking space where event professionals can share ideas, work through real industry challenges, and gain skills they can apply to their work. Workshops will cover areas such as building belonging, creative thinking, resilience, and professional development.

Bestselling author and storytelling expert Will Storr will also headline a Main Stage session focused on how neuroscience, emotion, and memory influence the experiences people remember. The wider programme will include sessions on AI, event technology, innovation, and emerging industry trends.

For event professionals attending large conferences, efficient attendee communication is also important. Tools that support a How to Send Bulk calendar invite workflow can help organizers manage large guest lists, while a How to Send Bulk calendar invites process can reduce repetitive work. Solutions for Mass calendar invite and Mass calendar invites can also help simplify event communication.
