Exclusive Interview with Ramanpreet Singh: Shaping the Future of Event Management with Innovation and Sustainability
In an exclusive feature for February edition of our Hospitality News magazine, Ramanpreet Singh, Vice President of Growth & Strategy at SKIL Group, shares his insights on the future of event management, shedding light on the exciting trends that are shaping the industry. With over 14 years of experience and a remarkable career trajectory, Ramanpreet’s journey is a testament to innovation, operational excellence, and empowering teams. He is now at the forefront of transforming event management in India, driven by technology and sustainability.
“Creating unforgettable experiences is the heart of event management,” says Ramanpreet, emphasizing how the industry is evolving with rapidly changing expectations. One of the most transformative trends is tech-driven personalization. With the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), events are now tailored to meet individual attendee preferences. Personalized schedules, perfect networking matches, and unique experiences are creating a deep sense of value for every participant.
Additionally, the advent of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) is adding a whole new dimension to events. Whether it’s a virtual tour of a factory or a 3D showcase of a real estate project, these immersive technologies are creating unforgettable moments that seamlessly merge the physical and digital worlds.
Ramanpreet also highlights the rising importance of sustainability in the industry. “Sustainability is no longer a choice; it’s a necessity,” he states, pointing to eco-friendly practices such as biodegradable decor and plantable invitations. The shift towards greener events is not only responsible but impactful, in line with initiatives like India’s Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
Post-pandemic, hybrid events have become the new normal, blending the best of both physical and virtual participation. This flexibility has significantly expanded the reach and accessibility of events while maintaining their traditional essence. “Hybrid events have been a game-changer for us,” says Ramanpreet, noting their growing significance in today’s landscape.
As the industry evolves, interactive experiences such as live polls and gamification are taking center stage, further boosting engagement and providing valuable data. Advanced analytics now allow event organizers to gather real-time feedback, enhancing the event experience continually.
At SKIL Events, Ramanpreet and his team are leading the charge in embracing these trends, ensuring every event is engaging, impactful, and memorable. “It’s an exciting time to be in this industry,” he concludes, adding that the journey of innovation and sustainability is just beginning.
