With less than 18 hours’ notice, Morris built and delivered a high-impact future-state keynote Convention 2020 mapping the forces transforming the global events industry: from hybrid delivery to venue design, emotional resonance, automation, sustainability, and the economics of audience attention. He proved how critical real foresight is when disruption hits.

LSG Sky Chefs asked Morris to speak at their global leadership conference in Hong Kong. But he didn’t talk about process. He talked about pressure. About what happens when invisible systems carry emotional weight  and the future of inflight hospitality becomes a conversation about precision, purpose, and what service feels like at 36,000 feet.

Morris was booked to open Delaware North’s Australian Leadership Conference. His keynote was a foresight-fuelled, guest-experience-resetting keynote on future stadiums, at-seat service, on-demand food and beverage, AI planning tools, and digital fan loyalty all years before those ideas became mainstream.

In the middle of COVID lockdowns, Erdi Group approached Morris with a question few in their industry were asking: What if we used this moment to completely reimagine what our hotels are for? The result was the Erdi Innovation Lab a long-term collaboration that continues to this day.
