41. Key Challenges• International Trends; Industry is still ignorant to emerging markets , need to keep close eye on International trends.• Information Pool; Need to create an information pool where industry can have ready access of information on venues because reccee cost a great amount of money and hit the margins/cost.• The advent of other media; The advent of other media invading into the activations space is another thing we should look at closely. With Big Bazaar providing activation solutions to brands together with measurability and statistics, and radio and print creating activation teams for their clients with the incentive of promotion through their media channel, this is a real threat.• Rising rental cost of space; Malls that make for a prime venue for activation are getting more expensive. As other expenses rise, the first cut suggested to maintain the budget is the agency’s fees.• Other factors like use of information technology, develop event measurement tools, rising demand of activation in KUT/ROUI, Vendor Management & Outsourcing business model etc.

50. Rising number of events and growing need of organized and structured events is driving the market • Expertise developed over the years has led to a major demand for professional event managers rather than general event organizers as there is a major difference in the services offered • The well managed events and list of facilities offered as a package are becoming popular and profitable to consumers • Range of special facilities and innovative ideas allure the consumers to spend lavishly on their one time special events of life • Well organized and ideal running of events earn organizers and hosts a good reputation Furthermore, the establishment of the Event and Entertainment Management Association is testament to the fact that the market is gradually moving from an unorganized to an organized structure • Furthermore, the establishment of the Event and Entertainment Management Association is testament to the fact that the market is gradually moving from an unorganized to an organized structure

101. Way forward• Packaging of stuff- If you look at the most successful stuff in recent years, in the media, they have been smartly packaged on ground events that have become content for television or print media. The packaging is such that there is a comprehensive offer of other media which Enhances the reach of the event. We need to raise the size quotient with the right offer of media (and break through ideas).”• Work as partner- Industry need to demonstrate what value we can bring to the client. We need to justify our existence and prove that we are capable of being partners to the brand (not vendors anymore).• Wider base of services- The typical BTL agencies have to pushed to widen the base of services they provide to the brands. Apart from the typical events and road shows, their services now include customized brand activation programs, response management, social media and digital media and CRM solutions for their clients.
