Abstract

There are perhaps not better times than those we are living in, to reconsider how practices and approaches to event innovation, and resilience may help us to chart a path to a more sustainable industry and societal practice for now and for the future. The impacts the Covid-19 pandemic has had on the events sector globally and nationally have certainly been profound (see for example the OECD report, 2021; Stewart et al., 2022). Yet, whilst these impacts remain to be fully unpicked; continued heightened economic and socio-cultural instabilities remind us that the pathway to events success (or failure) lies on the sector’s capacity to both rethink current approaches and practices to event planning, delivering, and managing as well as build on innovative stances with an aim of strengthening the sector’s capacity and resilience in the face of externalities. It is with this in mind that this special issue set out to explore event innovation and resilience during uncertainty, a topic and area of investigation highly relevant to both, industry, and academia. The special issue offers 8 unique research papers and 3 invited thought pieces from leading academics, which are sure to be a valuable reference source and point of discussion for any researcher in the field of events.

在不确定时期的事件创新和应变能力

也许没有比我们现在生活的时代更好的时候了，我们应该重新考虑活动创新的实践和方法，以及弹性如何帮助我们为现在和未来开辟一条通往更可持续的行业和社会实践的道路。Covid-19大流行对全球和国家的活动部门的影响无疑是深远的(例如，参见经合组织2021年的报告;Stewart et al.， 2022)。然而，尽管这些影响仍有待完全消除;持续加剧的经济和社会文化不稳定性提醒我们，活动成功(或失败)的途径取决于该部门重新思考当前活动规划、交付和管理的方法和实践的能力，以及建立创新立场的能力，以加强该部门面对外部因素的能力和弹性。正是考虑到这一点，本期特刊开始探讨不确定性期间的事件创新和弹性，这是一个与工业界和学术界高度相关的研究主题和领域。特刊提供了8篇独特的研究论文和3篇来自领先学者的受邀思想文章，这必将成为任何研究人员在事件领域的宝贵参考来源和讨论点。

期刊介绍： Event Management, an International Journal, intends to meet the research and analytic needs of a rapidly growing profession focused on events. This field has developed in size and impact globally to become a major business with numerous dedicated facilities, and a large-scale generator of tourism. The field encompasses meetings, conventions, festivals, expositions, sport and other special events. Event management is also of considerable importance to government agencies and not-for-profit organizations in a pursuit of a variety of goals, including fund-raising, the fostering of causes, and community development.
