The Rise of the Virtual Event

2020 has been a year like no other. The worldwide pandemic has forced businesses to adapt dramatically, we have seen staff isolation periods, enforced closures, staff being placed on furlough, customer limitations, and social distancing to name only a few. The event sector is one that has fundamentally changed, with a blanket ban on mass gatherings, and there is currently no end to these restrictions in sight. This has lead to many businesses losing crucial networking opportunities, however, there is a silver lining to the Covid-19 cloud, the growth of the virtual event.  

Virtual events have been held for many years, but with the onset of social distancing measures, they are set to grow in numbers and popularity. With new specifically designed software, you can have the in-person event experience live at your desk. If you’re attending you can hear talks in the conference theatre from world-class speakers, use the AI networking to match with you the people you need to meet, and browse the exhibition at your own pace. If you’re planning on exhibiting virtual events are a great way to network, increase brand awareness, generate leads, and sell products or services.

Phoneta, in conjunction with commercial partners Inspired Motive, are launching a new range of Virtual Business Events.  The Cornwall Business Revival Conference is coming to you on the 24th of February and the South West edition on the 19thof May.
