Virtual Event Elements
A virtual event is built around your content, attendees engagement, and the data being presented. Here are some of the elements we have found help make your next virtual event a great success:
- Event website - main place for registration, links, and information about your event.
- Event registration (e.g. Zoom, Qualtrics,Wufoo) - let's you know who's coming and creates a record of attendees for later follow up.
- Media content
- Live presentation content
- Recorded content - pre-recorded and played during the event.
- Adjustable interactivity
- Interactive video conferencing - maximum engagement for smaller groups
- Live, one-way audio/video - focused activity for large audiences
- Question and answer / Chat - help your audience engage and get the answers they are looking for.
