From planning and promotion to optimizing engagement for attendees, exhibitors and sponsors worldwide, the duo walk through all aspects of hybrid event planning, including:

  • Common pitfalls of planning hybrid events and how to avoid them;
  • The data and revenue benefits brought about by hybrid events, and how to harness insights properly;
  • How to extend networking opportunities beyond the event’s set time frame;
  • Tips and tricks to receive C-suite buy-in for hybrid events from a man who sits in the chair himself;
  • The best ways of harnessing data and measuring insights generated from hybrid events; and
