EventX has created a full suite of tools, tips, and resources to help you gather your participants despite the geographical distances. If you hold virtual events with us, distance is no longer a barrier to connecting people! Here we introduce a full set of virtual event solutions for you.
How do virtual events differ from physical events?
Your virtual event will not have a live check-in, reception, name badge printing, or in-person networking. Instead, virtual event tools will streamline these services.
Organizers and participants can still utilize the event management app or tool. They can view real-time event information, and exchange contact data by scanning QR codes or virtual business cards.
They can also interact with speakers through live polling or Q&A session.
So, What Do I Do If I Want to Hold an Online Event?
If you haven’t organized a virtual event before, you may not know how to engage your attendees or adapt to a new conference tool. Here are some tips to make it easy.
Re-define the goal of the virtual event so that you don’t deviate from it
Set a clear timeline for each part of your event
