BIG was born out of a simple yet powerful question: Where is the recognition for the best in the event industry, in the region that arguably hosts the best of them all?
Despite Bengaluru being India’s beating heart of events innovation and execution, Karnataka had no homegrown platform which truly celebrated the planners, creators, producers and visionaries which make the impossible possible and make magic happen.
What started as a quest to discover and honour excellence and innovation in the curated experiences industry rapidly evolved into a larger vision. We realised that awards alone aren’t enough for the industry to flourish. The fraternity needed more than just a stage for recognition — it needed a space to learn, connect, and grow together. The industry needed an cohesive all-in-one platform which understood the artistry, magic, creativity as well as the logistics and grit behind each experience. It needed to bring together legacy players and fresh faces, the thinkers and the doers, all under one roof, in one shared conversation.
This is what gave birth to the BIG Conclave — a symposium of ideas, inspiration, and interactions. Going beyond just awards, the BIG ecosystem now encompasses a multi-faceted experience: from panes with global association heads, tourism boards and workshops led by industry pioneers to high energy mixers and tech showcases that are set to redefine the future of events.
Each BIG Event is built around four pillars: recognition, education, collaboration, and celebration.
BIG is much more than about just who wins. BIG is about what we all build together. It’s about raising the standards, fostering innovation, and spotlighting the prior unseen brilliance behind every successful celebration, corporate meet, destination wedding, or immersive brand experience. BIG is about uplifting the entire community together – making sure nobody gets left behind.
At its core, BIG is a movement to elevate the entire industry and give it the structure, credibility and visibility it truly deserves. Regardless of whether you’re an independent planner, a large legacy agency, a venue partner, a creative freelancer or in any supporting role to the industry — BIG is for you. We are creating a platform where your work can be seen, your voice heard, and your journey shared.
Today, BIG stands proud as Karnataka’s first and only large-scale platform dedicated exclusively to the events and experiences industry — and we’re just getting started. With each edition, each conclave, and each connection, BIG continues to grow into the unified, powerful voice the industry deserves.
This is the BIG Story – and we can’t wait for you to be a part of it.
Come and be the Best in Glitz.
