Create a richer, more engaging experience for attendees at your next event by using interactive technology. Interactive communication immediately captures your audience’s attention and keeps them interested longer, connecting them to presentations and each other.
Here are some ideas that are working for clients:
Audience Response Systems
These wireless devices deliver real time answers to important real time questions during your general session or workshop. Plus, attendees love the sleek keypads, and the opportunity to share their opinion throughout the program. Results are instantly available and can be displayed on video screens, revealing valuable data about what matters to the group.
Custom Apps
Create an exclusive mobile application for conference attendees to download. Your custom app can be specific to the event, for example, a location-based app like foursquare that lets attendees “check in” at different booths and sessions to earn points. Or it could be a broader-based industry app that lives on after the event. Whichever you choose, a custom app will delight attendees and make them feel part of a cutting edge industry.
Digital Lending Library
Let your attendees share the experience of documenting the event, by featuring a booth with flip video cameras and digital cameras. Attendees can check out a camera and record their experiences at the event. The booth houses laptop computers where attendees can upload their content to the conference Facebook or LinkedIn page or as a Twitterpic.
Virtual Totebags
Distribute conference materials and session content to attendees via their mobile devices. The virtual totebag eliminates waste and the cost of printing and shipping materials, and keeps pace with the technology of the day. Plus, the virtual totebag allows the instant distribution of conference materials, like powerpoints, pictures, and polling data.
These are just some of the possibilities available to clients who want to stage deeper and more lasting experiences for their attendees.
