MPW24 “Climbing the Next Mountain: For Those Who Dare” taking place in Vietnam, 5th – 7th December 2024

MPW in partnership with Sunrise Events Vietnam is hugely excited to bring you the 9th edition of Mass Participation World Conference with over 30 international speakers in Vietnam – a country where the mass participation industry is booming.

MPW24 takes place from 5th to 7th December 2024 at Global City, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Theme

This year we have chosen the theme of “Climbing the Next Mountain: For Those Who Dare”.

In a time where mass participation is booming in most parts of the world, we are excited to invite the industry to dare to think differently to explore new ways of harnessing the boom to ensure a sustainable industry in the future.

The analogy of the mountain and image of Everest has been chosen for a number of reasons:

🏔️ Reaching the summit of Everest does not happen overnight – it takes years of training, experience and, critically, collaboration
🏔️ Everest stands tall but is at the centre of a huge range of mountains – without their “support” it does not exist
🏔️ Not everyone can or has to exist in the rare air of Everest’s summit – are you clear on the summit you are aiming for?

Some of the things the program will explore include:

✅ Success Beyond Success – moving beyond the fixation on “operational success”, which should be a given
✅ Opportunities for greater collaboration between ALL stakeholders – as we say in Asia “grow a bigger rice bowl for everyone”
✅ Future generations – participants, leaders, workforce
✅ Sustainability – looking far beyond environmental
✅ Embracing technology – including solutions to some of the 41 “problem statements” we have received in the GSIC powered by Microsoft MPW Innovation Challenge
✅ An immersive Explore Performance simulation of climbing Everest with a multitude of practical and relevant lessons
✅ A World Athletics and World Academy for Endurance Medicine half day Medical Operation Workshop with Stéphane Bermon, Director Health & Science Department, World Athletics and Hugh Singe, Managing Director, Event Health Management.
