The Future of Corporate Events: Team Building and Conference Trends in 2025

As we begin to truly get stuck into the new year, there are some interesting corporate event trends that are emerging and proving to be big influences for team building and conferences throughout 2025. Here, we dissect the current event industry trends to see what you should have your eye on in the coming months.

Charity, Social Impact and Sustainability Events

In 2025 event industry trends are likely to see many companies focusing on building their corporate social responsibility (CSR) via team-building events and conferences built around giving back to their community whilst also strengthening the relationships within their teams.

Charity team building events allow employees to connect over a common goal, and they help to promote a shared sense of purpose. 

Businesses that choose to engage with sustainable and eco-friendly events will help to raise awareness for causes that matter to their colleagues and communities and help their teams to foster a sense of responsibility towards the planet. 

Our SolarBuddy Hour of Power is a fantastic charity and sustainability event and a rewarding activity, that will see your teams assemble solar-powered lights for the benefit of children living in energy poverty. These event industry trends are a great way to investing in both your people and your community.

Hybrid Events: Giving You The Best Of Both

It doesn’t come as a surprise to hear that hybrid events are sticking around, with hybrid workflow happening within almost every company worldwide as a result of the 2020 pandemic there remains a need for corporate events to be hybrid to allow all employees to be involved.

Event industry trends like hybrid events need to be managed well, combining the best of an in-person event with a virtual event and making the content engaging for those present in the room as well as those participating virtually. 

KDM events has a great selection of virtual events for you to look at to help you to take on hybrid events and place a seamless integration of in-person and online at the forefront of your corporate event.

Other Key Event Trends

 Micro-Events: For A Smaller Affair

Corporate event trends are showing that there is an increased demand for smaller more intimate events where teams can connect with each other and network. This allows people to build a community within their industry and meet new people or investigate new concepts. 

KDM Events can help you to plan your corporate event regardless of size, we will help you to find the perfect venue and work with you on theming or production so that you can really get the most out of the day. 

Health Is Wealth

With many people now focusing more on their health and wellness in 2025 there are growing event planning industry trends centred around promoting health and wellness benefits. 

Businesses are now realising that there is a connection between increased performance and employee wellbeing. Team building events helps to enhance physical and mental wellbeing whilst also aiding team collaboration. 

Wellness focused team building events should recharge your employees, help to reduce stress and allow them to build resilience. Wellness events are more than just team building trends, they are also an investment in your people.

Our craft workshops are a brilliant way to get behind the wellness event industry trends, offering a calming and welcoming environment where teams can explore their creativity and relax in an open, warm environment

 

Venue Alignment: Finding Your Perfect Space

One of the more interesting event planning industry trends is that venues are becoming a much more vital part of event planning whether for a conference or for a team building event. 

Businesses are wanting to choose venues that align with the overall event goals and the expectations of those attending the event. Having access to a venue that can integrate with your event via customised designs and spaces are a real bonus to a corporate event. 

Luckily, KDM Events have a wealth of connections with key venues across the UK and can help you find the right venue for your events that meets key goals and needs. Our theming and production teams can also lend a hand in ensuring that the venue design works for your event, whatever you choose to use the space for.

Unconventional Activities: Gamification Of Corporate Team Building

With the new year, your company should try something different in the form of an unexpected team building activity. Current trends in event management show that gamification is the centrepiece of these team building trends, meaning people are wanting to plan team challenges and immersive adventures.

We have a wide range of team building events that are inspired by popular TV game shows such as Master The Task, Get Me Out Of Here and Treachery. These game inspired events are ones your teams will love as they take on their favourite TV challenges

Promoting Soft Skills By Making Learning Fun

Event planning trends show that incorporating fun into key learning experiences helps to enhance and maintain engagement, motivation and retention throughout a corporate event.

If a learning experience is enjoyable then it can help to reduce stress and create a positive environment which makes it easier to absorb information and apply this in workplace scenarios when under pressure.

Events such as our Missing Link activity is a great example of making learning fun within a corporate event.

The four key aspects event planners say they need from an event are: experience, learning, networking, or commerce each of these incentives makes its way into the event planning goals and overarching theme of the day.

Including interactive elements within your events are a great way to make your event more memorable. An interactive event allows your guests to actively engage with the event in a more meaningful way, and through this they connect with each other and foster a sense of community. Attendees usually remember interactive experiences in greater detail if they are direct participants and not passive observers.

As well as using the advice given above, it is important to begin planning your event early and budget wisely for all important elements of your day. Hiring an event planning team such as KDM Events can give you a head start and allow you to have peace of mind whilst your event planning is underway.
