In this special on-site edition of Production Value Matters, host Matthew Byrne takes the mic straight to the show floor at CMEE 2025 to ask one question: What’s truly valuable in event production and what’s just a waste of time, money, or energy?
Event pros from across the industry share candid, rapid-fire takes on what they’d keep, what they’d cut, and what actually makes an event memorable. From collaboration mindsets and intentional stage design to overpriced coffee, pointless apps, and tired entertainment trends, nothing is off-limits.
What you’ll hear:
• The most valuable elements event pros won’t compromise on
• Budget-busting wastes they’d cut tomorrow
• Why connection beats décor every time
• The role of collaboration in modern events
• What’s next for creating meaningful attendee experiences
