It’s Time To Put Real Numbers Behind Our Worth

The Worth It: Salary Survey is a new initiative from Ignite designed to establish a national benchmark for compensation across Canada’s business events industry. By sharing your anonymous insights, we can build a clearer understanding of how planners and suppliers are paid. This data will fuel conversations around transparency, equity, and professional growth throughout the business events community.

Together, we can elevate the value and recognition our industry receives.

Who should participate?

This survey is open to everyone working in Canada’s business events sector – corporate, association, and independent planners, as well as hotel, venue, DMO, and supplier partners.

Whether you’re based in Canada or employed by a Canadian organization abroad, your voice matters. Every response helps shape a stronger, more informed future for our industry.

Open to all Canadian business event planners and industry suppliers. Survey closes April 15, 2026. Stay tuned for the Salary Report coming June 2026!
