An Events Industry Takes Shape - Philip Berners - Bog

- A Case Study of the UK and Poland

Bag om An Events Industry Takes Shape

This timely book critically evaluates the factors which shape an events industry as it develops, with the aim of helping to narrow the disparate behaviours and practices of organisers within the global marketplace of international events. Stemming from an innovative qualitative research project which included interviews with senior events organisers at landmark venues in both the UK and Poland, this volume provides an insight into both the emerging events industry in Poland and the developed events industry in the UK, highlighting cross-cultural risk and safety gaps that may impact organisers, clients, attendees, suppliers and workers. The book highlights the importance of a unanimous global approach to events organisation, the creation of a professional community of practice and ethos of self-learning within the events industry and the need for an international professional association for organisers involved with providing international events. The book includes case studies to illustrate the importance of such a 'joined-up' approach. The book explores the three themes of "Event Culture", "Tourism and Events", and "Risk Awareness at Events", thus focusing on long-term factors of events industries. International in scope, this book will appeal to students on courses such as Managing Events, Planning Events, Project Management, and Hospitality and Tourism studies, as well as events organisers in locations where events is an emerging industry.
