What is a virtual event?
- Events are live Webcasts, but all content can be made available on-demand during or after the scheduled event
- Agendas can be customized to reflect your unique brand and corporate identity
- Reporting is available at all times to improve audience engagement
Attendees will register once for the virtual event regardless of how many (or which sessions) they plan to attend. Once registered, they can customize their own event calendar and set up notifications for any desired sessions. They'll participate through a supported browser and be connected to audio via Computer audio (VoIP).
