Smart networking + Slick data insights = successful events
In-person events hold a tremendous amount of value because human beings are sociable by nature. It’s part of our DNA to be motivated to connect with one another and develop a sense of belonging. In-person events satisfy this need and enable you to create a sense of community – particularly in a post-pandemic, digitally-connected world. And, even though in-person events are back in fashion after virtual event platforms and hybrid events took centre-stage, digital components still have significant value.
Hosting in-person events enables participation and deep engagement through behaviours and actions like
- Direct communication with others
- Non-verbal cues
- Physical touch like shaking hands with new connections – and even hugs with colleagues.
Believe it or not, taking advantage of the benefits of the digital capabilities of an event platform contributes to the success of your in-person events. By implementing our interactive technology you can capitalize on your next in-person event and boost attendee engagement with the key features this article explores: smart networking and actionable data insights.
Smart Networking On Demand
The most accurate metric of a successful in-person event is networking. Event organizers know it and delegates know it. Having people congregate in an open space is one thing – but the real magic happens when attendees can connect on a deeper level.
And this is where an event platform can help everyone to meet in the middle. An event platform simplifies and enables connection and engagement because it can be used to identify people with shared interests and prompt them to develop professional relationships.
Event platforms like EventsCase maximize shared interests and commonalities like
- Job titles
- Interests
- Skills
- Backgrounds
… And other factors so that attendees can connect with people who have shared interests and common goals.
While there certainly is still value in exchanging business cards person-to-person, using an event platform means that participants can find and connect with each other online, accessing the critical information required to build professional relationships.
By taking advantage of the features of an event platform like EventsCase you make it simpler for attendees to find appropriate people to connect with. It may be helpful to think of it as an additional filter that saves people unnecessary small talk before they can find like-minded participants to engage with.
Acquire Slick Data Insights
Get smarter, actionable event data by connecting with your audience through an event platform. The analytics dashboard tracks attendees, as well as their level of engagement, and the results of your in-person event. It also captures their responses in the form of surveys and feedback forms, which you can integrate to improve your next event.
Digital components afford each attendee a deeper level of interaction at in-person events, due to integrated functionality like question-and-answer sessions and polls. These features allow you to check on delegates’ preferences and develop content that is tailored to their specific interests.
An event platform makes it easier and simpler to track valuable data, which will equip you with insights to make future events even more engaging.
If you’d like to make your next in-person event smarter, seamless, and effortless, it’s time to consider an event platform.
