i-Meet and EproDirect recently released its 2021 Planner Confidence Index – Phase 3, showing how planners have already taken action in 2021 to bring face-to-face events back. i-Meet’s Planner Confidence Index is based on a weekly survey that records the evolving opinions of meeting professionals on when they expect to resume F2F events.
