Why virtual events are here to stay

There’s one thing we can be certain of: virtual events are here to stay. Here’s why:

🤸 FLEXIBILITY
A virtual event gives speakers, organisers and visitors the kind of flexibility that just doesn’t exist at any other kind of event. Your audience can engage on the move, on the beach or even from their bed. (And best of all, there’s usually the option to catch-up in their own time!)

✈️ THE JET SET
Virtual events make it 1,000 x easier to secure buy-in from international speakers. There’s no travel (and no cost associated with that), no muddling around trying to get to the venue, and no fear of missed flights meaning MIA guests.

🌍 GLOBAL AUDIENCE
International speakers is one thing, but with a virtual event you can widen your net to reach audiences across the globe too. Asking someone to log in to Zoom is much more realistic than expecting them to get a plane, train or automobile to reach their destination.

💰 COST
No venue hire. No travel. No physical marketing assets. No fancy new outfit to impress your pals. Need we go on?

⏰ EFFICIENCY
A virtual event has a start time and an end time. It has a schedule that (generally speaking) people stick to. There’s no delay because the pyrotechnics have gone down, or faffing around trying to find missing goody bags. They’re slick, smooth and successful. And we love it.

📱 EASIER TO ENGAGE
Virtual events give your audience a chance to interact with you that might not be possible IRL. It’s easier for them to ask questions and actually get heard, and they’re more likely to tap, like and follow while they can easily access their device.

📈 BETTER EVALUATION
Numbers can be tricky to untangle at live events. During a virtual event it’s easy to capture who joined, how many joined, how many left (and crucially, at what point), and whether you spotted any spikes in engagement.

👨🏻‍💻 EVOLUTION
Technology gets better every day! We’ll probably see a surge in hybrid events which is going to be different, and new, and exciting, and we can’t wait.
