A message from our Global President, Scott Graf:
As we all navigate our “new normal,” we have never been more convinced in the power of human connection. With our world turned upside down, we remain focused on:
Taking care of our people. Our people are the heart of BCD Meetings & Events. We are proud of the culture we have built and are dedicated to protecting it. That starts with protecting jobs and keeping everyone safe so we can continue to serve. While we are literally being kept apart, we feel closer than ever.
Taking care of our partnership. We continue to work with our customers to ensure we are delivering the services that are needed now. Our focus on long-term stability is front and center so that we can remain your partner for the long haul. We are not going anywhere.
Building for the future. We have experienced program changes, hard conversations and disruptions over the last few weeks. But, we have also witnessed innovation, creativity and gratitude. We are talking with our supplier partners, M&E associations and even our competitors to ensure our industry evolves and is built for future success and the power of human connection isn’t lost.
We thank you for your support and look forward to the evolution that is on the horizon. Please take care of yourself and your loved ones.
