Virtual Conferences
A virtual conference is a longer form virtual event, which can either run over a few hours or across several days. One of the main benefits of a virtual conference is that all participants attend remotely, which means anyone can participate from anywhere in the world without the need for business travel, which can often be both time consuming and costly.
During a virtual conference, presenters can either join remotely or address the audience from a branded studio for a more formal look and feel. We often use a studio to create a TV chat show style setting. As well as having studio access in key locations across the UK, we also have a connected green screen studio on-site at Virtuopo HQ in Liverpool’s Brunswick Business Centre.
For added convenience, our team has the expertise to build a professional pop-up studio just about anywhere. So, if your virtual conference needs to take place from the company boardroom or a specific events space, we can bring the studio to you.
The senior team at Virtuopo has been organising broadcast quality virtual conferences since livestreaming technology first started to emerge as a niche marketing trend. We have been at the forefront of the industry ever since, helping clients to shift events online during the global pandemic when in-person gatherings weren’t an option and now delivering a wide range of virtual conferences and events on a daily basis. Far from being a quick fix, virtual conferences have become an essential tool for business communications.
Technology has advanced rapidly in recent years, with virtual conference platforms enabling event organisers to be more creative when planning events that will engage participants. There are many conference hosting platforms to choose from and the final decision depends very much on your overall event goals.
As a specialist virtual conference production company, we design events that encourage participants to play an interactive role. We always explore ways to recreate the in-room experience with features such as live polling, video-submitted questions and live virtual questions. This really helps to build a connection between the virtual audience and presenters.
During a virtual conference, hosts are able to access a wealth of valuable data, which can be useful for monitoring in real time the type of content that performs best.
Every virtual conference is unique and we work with clients to design and deliver events that will really engage attendees. We manage virtual conferences end-to-end, with our services including everything from developing creative concepts and building content to set design and technical delivery.
Planning a live event can be a daunting experience and virtual events often bring the added challenge of managing any unexpected technical issues. As a specialist virtual conference production company, we work with clients to identify any potential challenges and contingency plans are always put into place. This could include anything from ensuring that everything has a battery back-up to providing a back-up internet connection.
Preparation is key when it comes to delivering a virtual conference. To avoid any technical glitches, we always have a plan B, and usually C, in case any unexpected issues arise.
We also tech check every remote presenter by checking internet connections and allowing sufficient time for setting up before a virtual conference begins. We also recommend a cue to cue in advance so that everyone knows the running order and when to un-mute to begin presenting.
Our team includes producers, camera ops, a vision mixer and even someone to greet and manage your remote guests.
