Inspiring change in association conferences for a bold, impactful future

Imagine this: an association planning its annual conference, burdened by endless spreadsheets, countless emails, and the overwhelming need to deliver more with less. The stress builds as deadlines loom, and the dream of creating an impactful event feels distant. At Conferli, we’ve seen this story too often—and we’re here to change it.

Conferli was born out of frustration with the inefficiencies of conference planning. Our founders, Nienke and Bregje, envisioned a better way: a platform that simplifies, connects, and empowers. Today, that vision drives everything we do. We help associations cut through complexity, save precious time and money, and focus on what truly matters—creating conferences that inspire, engage, and leave a legacy.

Our mission is simple: to make the conference world more transparent, efficient, and collaborative. By leveraging independent benchmarking and smart technology, we connect associations with the right destinations and resources. But it doesn’t stop there. We empower you with knowledge and tools to turn your challenges into opportunities, helping you craft conferences that not only meet expectations but redefine them.

A New Chapter for 2025

This year, we’re doubling down on our commitment to drive change in the industry. We’ll explore themes that resonate deeply with the challenges and opportunities you face:

• Harnessing the power of data: Imagine making decisions with clarity, not guesswork. We’ll show how data can guide you to the right choices.
• Streamlining processes: From simplifying RFPs to managing local hosts, we’re tackling the pain points that slow you down.
• Revolutionizing engagement: Whether it’s attracting Gen Z or meeting sustainability goals, we’ll share stories and strategies to connect meaningfully.
• Embracing innovation: AI, technology, and bold partnerships will take center stage, showing you how to future-proof your events.

But this isn’t just about content; it’s about transformation. We’ll highlight real-world examples of associations making bold moves, destinations stepping up as true collaborators, and innovations that redefine what’s possible. Through storytelling, practical advice, and fresh perspectives, we’ll inspire you to think bigger and bolder.
