Reflections, Revelations & What's Worth It

Welcome to our annual Ignite team podcast, where we gather in the recording booth to take a look back at the big trends we predicted for 2025—and an honest conversation about whether they actually happened. And, of course, we’ll take a look forward at what’s shaping business events in 2026. We’ll also talk about a big project we are working on in 2026—the Ignite  Salary Survey—and how you can get involved!

Joining Debbie and Laura today are:

Angela Kryhul, Editorial Director, Special Projects, and the editor of Adrenalin Magazine

Jennifer Newby, Director of Client Innovation

Melaya Horsten, Director of Communications and Marketing

Rose Filice, Senior Editor, Special Initiatives

Tricia Viera, Manager, Audience and Finance Operations
