The End of an Era- WTF is Next?
Episode Summary:
In this bittersweet installment, Will Curran and Brandt Krueger close the book on the Event Tech Podcast- at least as we’ve known it. After years of stretching topics to fit the confines of “event tech,” they’re rebranding and broadening the focus to Where’s the Future? (conveniently, WTF). With a wider lens on technology, gadgets, innovation, and how they all connect to real life, the duo reflect on their favorite episodes, industry shifts post-COVID, and the future of both the show and the community. It’s equal parts nostalgia, industry critique, and excitement for what’s ahead.
Discussions Include:
• Why the Event Tech Podcast is winding down and evolving into Where’s the Future? (WTF)
• The changing pace of innovation in the events industry post-COVID
• Memorable episodes, rants, and recurring themes from the show’s history
• How the new community and live podcast recordings will work
