If attendees were robots, a good programme would be all that was needed for a successful event. This is obviously not the case. For a great event we want engaged participants, and to create engagement we need to gear ourselves towards human interaction. With the right technology and approach we can create attractive event environments where relationships, serendipitous discoveries and success stories are not a by-product, they are the goal.

Learning Outcomes:
1) Bringing together business, relationships and pleasure
2) Making 3,000 people feel like 300

But content is not education. Just as information and data is not education. Offering Content Is Not Enough People attend conferences for two primary reasons: 1. Education 2. Networking

Websites designed for mobile devices are popular ways to share information with attendees. However, understanding the differences between, native, web-based and hybrid mobile apps are essential in choosing the right technology for your event or conference. A web app is an application accessed through a devices browser and is limited by the functionality of the mobile browser. In contrast, a native app is downloaded onto the device, loading all pages/documents when the app is installed thus eliminating the need for a network to view content.

Too many conferences foster attendee information overload. The plethora of presenters pushing information at warp speeds cause fragmented attention, overburden brains and data excess. It’s a silent epidemic that cause stagnate mental engagement. And our conference schedules stretch attendees in ways that may have bigger implications than just unhealthy eating.
