Hybrid events

Combining physical events with virtual events. Design hybrid events in an innovative way.

Hybrid events

Hybrid events are virtual supplements to real events. An event can be accompanied online before, during and after the real event. The combination of real and virtual trade show ensures that you use the advantages of both worlds to create an optimal experience for your visitors.

The browser-based solution of the hybrid trade fair formats offer decisive advantages for you compared to real and virtual trade fairs and represent a solution for the trade fair construction and event industry of the future.

Advantages of hybrid events

Independence of place and time

In addition to the physical event, your visitors have the opportunity to participate in the event online. Presentations and documents can be made available to the visitor on demand on the online platform and for download afterwards.

Detailed event analysis

The combination of a physical event with a virtual event enables you to perform detailed event analyses. In addition to visitor measurements at the physical booth, visitor data can be tracked and analyzed online in compliance with GDPR.

Cost effective realization

Take advantage of the unlimited space in the virtual world to keep the cost of the real event location low. The virtual platform does not become more expensive due to a higher number of visitors.

High reach in target group

With a hybrid event, you take advantage of unlimited reach for your event. People who cannot attend the physical event due to distance can use the virtual trade show solution.

 

Unlimited number of participants

In addition to selected visitors at the real event, the hybrid event format allows you to use the unlimited number of participants for your virtual event to enable as many visitors as possible to attend.

No download needed

Your visitors don't need to download any additional software. Everything runs via the visitor's browser. They can access the hybrid trade fair via Chrome, Firefox, Edge etc. Access to the event is also possible with a mobile device.

How to make your hybrid event a success

 

Before the event

Before the hybrid event, use a virtual platform to maximise your reach. This allows you to make as many people as possible aware of the event and tease the event in order to arouse interest in attending the real event. In addition to information about the physical event, you can make presentations, product information or downloads available in advance.

You can also check the interest in certain products or services online in advance. You can use visitor measurement to measure views, clicks and dwell time in order to analyse the interest of your visitors. This reporting helps your company to optimally prepare for the physical event.

 

During the event

Unfortunately, not all of your invited guests can be present live during the hybrid event. The time and location independence is a decisive advantage of the virtual event solution. Even multi-day events are not attended the same way every day. With an accompanying virtual event, your visitors can be welcomed not only at the real trade fair stand, but also at a virtual stand.

As an exhibitor, you can therefore achieve a much greater reach and generate leads for future marketing measures. In addition, visitors to the physical event can also access information, presentations and additional content at the virtual event. This is often another opportunity for an exhibitor or organiser to generate additional leads via gated content.

 

After the event

This can be continued online after the event. While a physical event is limited to a few days a year, the content can live on and be consumed on your online platform even after the event. This means that the event can continue to make it possible to experience what was seen weeks or months after the actual event. The online event can also be used as a networking platform to establish contacts.
