To give a job description or to identify it.
Until somebody starts in the industry or finds themselves accidentally doing a role, maybe they don't find it.
Do we need to clear or define roles in the industry?
Go on.
Yeah, and I mean, you know, looking outside of sort of the technical production element, you know, the actual organisation and the planning, you know, you take your average trade show now, the amount of tech platforms that are in use, you know, people who've got a historic or, you know, a youth background in coding or gaming.
Yeah.
You know, anything that's it heavy, if we can, you, if that, if that's a way of describing it, you know, strikes me as somebody who'd be brilliant to work on, you know, coordinating the tech stacks that are prevalent in every sort of big event now, whether that be the registration platform, the event app.
you know the ticketing the badging and making it all working together making it all work together that you know the young people today are so technically savvy that they might not even realize that that or they probably don't realize that actually some of their interests and their tech savviness could be really really useful to big event organizers now they could probably learn some of these tech platforms in half the time of people who are having to adapt and learn who because they've done it in a more traditional way
know yeah well if you look at corresponding industries this occurred to me recently is that um yeah you know if you'd have looked at uh in football you know the world cup has just finished so football 25 30 years ago and you just said right we're going to recruit somebody to work under brian cluff at nottingham forest who's going to do data analytics and statistical analytics of players
The old school thinking would have been, what an absolute load of nonsense.
We don't need data.
Computers involved in football are now...
yeah could you even contemplate anybody even remotely connected with football of a decent level and i'm talking sort of in the uk right down to sort of fifth sixth tier you know non-league football even those sort of top you know upper level non-league clubs they'll have somebody who's got a laptop and an ipad with them who's monitoring players who's looking at data you know and they're all probably wearing armbands as well tracking their heart yeah they're all wearing trackers so you know when you when that film what was that film is it money bags or something is that what
it was oh money ball money baseball yeah yeah looking at all of that and i just think you know in the events industry you know we've we've slowly but surely stepped forward now and you know people are worried about ai taking roles away but i think there's a completely counter argument to that that says what could be creating brand new roles it could be great for people that we didn't even know we need to get left behind you know
Well, absolutely.
And I'm using it, I'm not going to say on a day-to-day level yet, but particularly in the last two months, I think I've used it more than I've ever done before.
But just for really for mundane tasks, you know, proofreading award scripts.
Yeah.
You know, I was doing...
How does that work?
