Flying to Portugal to stay in a luxury hotel on the beach? Sounds like a dream trip, and when you add in the incredible networking opportunities, unmissable keynote speakers, and deep dive sessions and workshops, we know you're on board. However, convincing your boss to approve the trip might require a well-thought-out approach. Here are the benefits of attending Global ThinkTank, and why it’s the smartest budget decision your boss will make in 2025.
Highlight the benefits to the company
Start by emphasizing how your attendance will benefit the company. Explain that Global ThinkTank offers high-caliber educational sessions,, and ample networking opportunities. These elements can provide valuable insights and connections that will directly benefit your team's projects and overall company goals.
Showcase the ROI
Demonstrate the return on investment by outlining how the knowledge and skills you gain will be applied to your current projects. Mention specific sessions or workshops that align with your company's objectives and how they will help you address current challenges or improve processes. See the agenda here to get all the details. You also have pre-event access to the event app, which gives you access to the full attendee list. You can have your day perfectly planned before you even board the plane by strategically scheduling your meetings ahead of time. It’s a great way to measure ROI in advance, knowing how many dedicated in-person meetings you’ll have. Our 2024 events saw 5,500+ meeting requests via our app, giving an impressive statistic of 87% of all attendees meeting new partners.
Provide examples from our past events
Share success stories from previous attendees. For instance, attendees of past ThinkTank events have a lot to say about the benefits of attending these events in person and the significant impact of networking, gaining exclusive industry insights, and being energized and inspired. These examples can help your boss see the tangible benefits of your participation.
Address ticket prices
Acknowledge the cost of attending the event and provide a breakdown of expenses. Highlight any cost-saving measures, such as the early-bird registration discount, available until December 31st, or group rates. Emphasize that the investment in your professional development will pay off through improved performance and innovative ideas. The ticket price includes an all-access pass to every opportunity to connect, collaborate and hear new ideas.
