What is the hot spot for rewarding top performers in 2023 and beyond? We are glad you asked because Incentive Research Foundation (IRF) President Stephanie Harris has the answers.

In addition to sharing the results of IRF’s annual Incentive Trends Report about who is participating, what is happening to budgets and where people want to go, she will share insights from a new Expectations study outlining the priorities for attendees and planners. Spoiler alert, all-inclusive properties are popping up on more agendas as the quality and service have elevated the experience and even younger generations are finding they like the convenience and choice they offer in some of their favorite places.
