In this episode of the ‘Where People Meet’ podcast, we are joined by RJ Crowder-Schaefer, Head of Event Technology & Product at Bloomberg. In his current role, RJ directs a global team of digital event technicians, QA specialists, product and project managers to oversee an event tech stack responsible for the execution of over 3,000 events annually. RJ is an expert on all things related to event technology and is regularly featured at events, podcasts and webinars addressing the latest topics and trends pertaining to event technology. 

We were lucky enough to have RJ on this week’s podcast episode as a special guest. He sat down to answer a few questions about his background in the meetings and events industry, gave us a breakdown of Bloomberg’s events strategy, the role technology plays in planning large-scale events, some of the challenges faced around scalability, and also shares some valuable advice for our listeners on how they can make the most out of their organization’s tech stack.
