A hybrid meeting format includes onsite and virtual audiences, and blends synchronous and asynchronous approaches to content delivery, attendee engagement, and sponsorship value. Hybrid meetings leverage technology such as live-streaming, virtual chat, and Q&A in conjunction with OnDemand content to improve the experience for all attendees, while still preserving the full value of an onsite meeting experience for face-to-face attendees.
A simple example of a hybrid experience:
Onsite audience
- Your meeting can scale up and down in size as needed. Our virtual platform can support increase in attendees
- You can put on a familiar or typical meeting experience for in-person attendees such as:
- Concurrent sessions for onsite audience
- Planned breaks and in person networking
- Special Events
- Standard Exhibit Hall
- Poster Hall
- Plenaries
- Breakouts and Concurrent Sessions
- Access to Virtual Meeting
- Onsite attendees can have access to in-person, recorded, and virtual sessions
Virtual audience
