Every day inside the Cvent Community, something remarkable happens.
Someone tests a new idea.
Someone finds a smarter workflow.
Someone quietly solves a problem that saves hours of work or transforms an event experience.
Most of these moments start simply as a post, a comment, a question, or that satisfying “aha!” moment when everything finally clicks.
And while these wins matter deeply to the people behind them, they often stay tucked inside conversations.
We think that deserves to change.
That’s why we’re introducing Cvent Game Changer Stories, a new way to recognize the people in our community who are doing incredible work and generously sharing what they’ve learned. Because when innovation happens here, it deserves a spotlight.
✨ Meet Cvent Game Changer Stories
It’s the next evolution of our Member Spotlight program, created in partnership with Cvent Celebrity. This new recognition series celebrates Cvent customers who are pushing boundaries, solving real challenges, and helping others succeed along the way.
These stories are about more than achievements. They’re about the journeys, lessons, and ideas that help the entire Community grow stronger.
And the best part? Your story could be next.

A Cvent Game Changer is someone who turns ideas into impact. They might:

How the Game Changer Stories Program Works
The program is powered by Cvent Celebrity for nominations, Cvent Community for storytelling, and Cvent CONNECT for in-person recognition and connection.
Step 1: Submit Your Nomination (and Earn Points)
If your Customer Success Manager nominated you, they’ll send you a link to the same questionnaire so we can hear your story directly.
Once your questionnaire is selected, you’ll receive:

Think of it as the first chapter of your Game Changer story.
Step 2: Selection & Story Acceptance
After submissions are received, our Advocacy and Community teams will review the nominations.
If your story is selected, you’ll receive an email welcoming you as a Cvent Game Changer.
We’ll also ask for a few additional assets to help bring your story to life:
🎥 A short 1–2 minute introduction video
📸 3–5 photos related to your achievements
⭐ Any key moments you'd like highlighted
We’ll provide clear timelines and a simple way to upload everything.
Step 3: Story Creation & Community Feature
Once we have your materials, our team gets to work crafting your story. Here’s what happens next:
✍️ Our writers create your Game Changer Story
📩 You receive a draft to review within a few business days
✅ You can suggest edits, clarify details, and ensure everything reflects your experience
After your approval (timeline is 5 business days), your story will be published as a featured article in the Cvent Community. From there, it becomes part of our growing collection of stories that inspire, educate, and celebrate the people shaping the future of events.
