Conference and event management company, Opening Doors & Venues Limited<\/a>, has hosted its first hybrid event post-pandemic, with the help of award-winning event software provider, VenuIQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response to the challenges the event industry has experienced over the last 18 months, the business held an intimate, invitation-only event titled \u2018Hybrid Event Experience\u2019 on 22nd July 2021 at partner venue Worcester\u2019s Sixways Stadium, offering industry leaders a forum to discuss alternative ways to deliver future events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

80 virtual and 30 in-person attendees joined the event and were invited to experience exactly how hybrid technology works and how it could benefit their events in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VenuIQ implemented its suite of hybrid technology for the activation, including breakout sessions where both in-person and virtual attendees could interact with one another via the bespoke custom app or web platform. The platform also enabled delegates to hear from high profile speakers, interact with live interviews and watch video showreels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rose Padmore, founding director of Opening Doors & Venues, said: \u201cHybrid Event Experience was a great opportunity for attendees to understand the effectiveness of hybrid events, and allowed us to showcase some of the best technology available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe had several leading event technology providers showcase their offerings, including Mercian Events, Stone\u2019s Throw Media, Think Big Picture and VenuIQ. All the technology used worked seamlessly together to create an interactive, inclusive hybrid event that worked for both in-person and virtual delegates. We feel the event really illustrated how well a hybrid event can work, and its effectiveness in reaching a wider audience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oliver Rowe, co-founder of VenuIQ, said: \u201cI think I can speak on behalf of the whole of the event industry in saying that the return of live events has been very much welcomed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Opening Doors & Venues Hybrid Event Experience showed the importance and effectiveness of providing a virtual element to events, and why it is something all event organisers should consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen hosting events in-person, it is crucial that organisers consider those who may prefer not to travel due to the ongoing pandemic or other reasons, and that they offer a virtual element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo provide a great experience for both in-person and virtual delegates, event organisers need to implement event technology that is fully optimised to support hybrid activation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
