Hybrid Events Comprises Both a Live and Virtual Component Discussion
1) What are things to consider when preparing a Hybrid event?
2) What are some suggestions or advice you may have for an event planner when it comes to hybrid events?
other students post that you need to answer with a few sentences for this one….
1) Things to consider when hosting a Hybrid event is needing a studio-style approach making it look more like TV production than the traditional live set and stage. Make sure that the venue where the hybrid event will be taking place has high-speed internet. Hybrid events are also extremely useful solutions when many of your attendees can’t attend in-person meetings. If you get the sense that many would prefer the option of attending virtually, a hybrid event may be the best solution. It is also important to consider taking time to identify the goals of your hybrid event, as well as gather all the tools you need to execute these goals effectively.
2) Some advice that I will suggest to an event planner that is hosting a hybrid event would be to consider the time of your event, the audience, and the environment of the venue where the event will be hosted. The reason that time would be important is that you want to be able to host an event that is a reasonable time for everyone that would be at the meeting. It is important to work with both the audience in the room and online, you can’t just stream the live event and hope that will engage everyone, and having the right network wifi working with no interruption. Being in the right environment is important because it is important to know the kind of venue that will work for your event in terms of safety, numbers, seating, access, and production capabilities.
