Many conference organizers are rushing to provide accommodations for those who are eager to participate but are unable to come in person due to health concerns and travel limitations associated to the coronavirus Covid19. Thus, what additional measures can you take to make sure that those attending virtually still take use of all that your conference has to offer? Since distant participants are not physically present at your event, you should use technology to encourage awareness, urgency, and involvement.
In order to facilitate remote participants, consider the following best practices for improving your digital event experience:
Adapt your material to remote participants.
It’s possible that you already customize material in your event app for staff members and executives among other participants. Consider carrying out the same action for attendees who are remote. Eventbase gives event planners the ability to provide various event app experiences according to the role of attendees.
You can provide those who aren’t physically present at your event a special attendee experience by designing a role specifically for them. If a session isn’t accessible remotely, you can hide it from the Schedule in your event app. Depending on the function of the attendee, you may also choose which app sections to display or hide. For instance, you may make the in-app game inaccessible to those who aren’t there in person and offer distant guests a different set of FAQs.
