The Challenge

Connection 2026 delivered high-quality, in-person experiences. The next step? Keeping that momentum alive long after attendees returned home.

Key challenges:

• Event photos scattered across folders and channels

• No easy way for attendees to find themselves

• Limited post-event engagement

• No clear visibility into post-event value

The Solution

A Personalized Long-lasting Engagement Hub, Powered by Kampfire

Global DMC Partners activated Kampfire as the official post-event experience for Connection 2026.

Attendees could:

• Upload a selfie to instantly find their photos

• Revisit the event days after it ended

Why Kampfire Worked for Connection 2026

Personalization drives engagement
People engage with their own moments, not folders.

Post-event timing matters
Kampfire extended Connection 2026 beyond event day.

Measurement changes the conversation
Global DMC Partners didn’t just share photos - they measured outcomes.

Connection 2026 didn’t end when the event closed - it continued through every visit, download, and share.
