Public sector use of webcasting (the streaming of audio, video and visual aids over the internet for live or on-demand viewing) is growing. The Michigan Public Health Institute recognized the need by state agencies to use webcasting to translate, communicate and coordinate information and services in an array of program areas.
What do water bottles, satisfaction surveys and meeting technology have in common?
They all can be part of making your next conference more sustainable. Just maybe not in the way you might expect.
Here's an interesting fact about NASA: while the Space Shuttle has been its highest profile mission, it is only one of 93 active missions NASA is working on. At least 1,000 workers plus 2,000 contractors across the entire country provide important services every day to get to the point of liftoff. The NASA Safety Center (NSC) is responsible for training these individuals, as well as providing safety assurance for NASA's most critical missions and some of the nation's most significant investments.
Creating a successful hybrid event doesn't happen overnight and it doesn't happen in a vacuum. Victoria Fanning, a face-to-face meeting planner for over a decade, and now the Director of Hybrid and Online Meetings at EDUCAUSE, should know. She plans five major blended conferences, two multi-day online events, and numerous online seminars and webinars every year, with just about every possible combination of synchronous and asynchronous options offered.
Stop for a moment and think about the last presentation you watched (or presented). Did the speaker read the slides to you? Did you hear the phrase, “Now this next one might be a little hard to read”? Were there flashy animations? Or over-enthusiastic use of clip art?
You aren’t alone.
Fresh off a test drive at Event Camp National in Chicago, Erica St. Angel is ready to take this brand new presentation style out on the open road. She's got six chapters and eighteen potential paths for you to explore: from popular monetization models to stats on the growth of the blended event market, from hybrid event marketing techniques to little known tech tips that save time and money.
The final in our four-part webinar series brings you the culmination of this educational series. In order to prepare you to integrate virtual event technologies to your event marketing plans, there is one final element to understand. The technology can feel daunting and understanding technical requirements goes beyond the event professional's standard skill set. However, this session will give you the basic understanding of technical requirements to get started.
After this session, you will leave with an understanding of:
How did a small regional association engage members, create valuable new partnerships and generate new revenue without new staff or fundraising?
With webcasting technology, that’s how.
You know that feeling of camaraderie you build with fellow attendees during a conference? Have you ever wondered if it would be possible to keep that level of networking and interaction going long after the event is over?
Stephanie Martinez did. And she came up with a very clever way to launch that community on the heels of their first hybrid event: build the network on a foundation of conference content through event webcasting.
What advice would you give an association with 45,000 members, two annual conferences and declining meeting attendance? What if they had no new money for webcasting services or virtual event technology? And what if they’re convinced hybrid events are going to cannibalize their onsite attendance?
Stumped? Sound familiar? Then this webinar is for you.
