BizBash, the leading trade media for event professionals, has announced its 2014 list of the most innovative people and brands in events and has named Dan Berger, CEO & Founder of Social Tables, as one of the top innovators right now. Berger has stood out as an event innovator and groundbreaker—joining an elite group that proves the value of face-to-face events, empowers peers to consider the unconventional, and reveals a redefined image of what the industry is today.
Dan is the Founder and CEO of Social Tables, the award-winning provider of hospitality
software that delivers the most dynamic diagramming and guest management platform on the market. Described as a “relentless and focused entrepreneur”, Dan was recognized as a ‘40 Under 40’ by Collaborate Magazine and Connect Magazine. He holds a BA from Hunter College and an MBA from Georgetown University, and has spoken at HITEC, PMPI, CSES, HelmsBriscoe’s ABC and NACE.
“I am honored to be listed amongst the industry’s most forward-thinking leaders,” said Berger upon receipt of this award. “Our strength is found in our tireless pursuit of the perpetual renewal that challenges our industry to be better than it was yesterday.”
“We may be living in a digital age, but live experiences remain one of the most powerful ways to reach and influence an audience. Our Innovation issue is about the event and meeting industry professionals proving how sophisticated and strategic the medium is, whether it’s a 150,000-person conference, a public fan fest that attracts 1.5 million visitors, or a 400-guest wedding,” says BizBash editor in chief Anna Sekula. “Dan was willing to take risks and find opportunities to create authentic engagement and value, which is why we decided to highlight him and his work.”
