The current shift into virtual conferences suggests more than a trend. Be prepared because virtual conferences are here to stay.

The world has shifted from in-person to virtual conferences and it’s been interesting to see how virtual spaces can still provide the genuine connections that we seek when attending a physical conference.

From Simulated Live to Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), physical conferencing spaces are being replicated in a unique digital format and even improved upon to offer attendees something beyond what traditional events can provide.

Here at Accelevents, we believe that virtual conferences are here to stay.

Let’s break down why:
How digital conferences work
Digital conferences are conferences hosted through a digital platform or virtual event technology. These conferences might have a similar structure when compared to a traditional conference but the event is hosted in an entirely online format.

Digital conferences can be live-streamed or presented in a webinar or simulated live format. They can also be part of a hybrid event format to allow an online audience to participate in events taking place in a physical location while still observing mandated gathering restrictions.

When hosting digital conferences, conference organizers rely on event technology. An event organizer might use a digital event platform like Accelevents, which is a virtual conference platform that facilitates event ticketing, event registration, attendee management, and additional functionality for a virtual meeting.

A digital conference may be organized into different parts and breakout sessions and arranged in terms of ‘rooms’. Each room would have a live presenter or presentation, live chat, and room moderator. Other rooms in the digital format might exist with aviators and AR sets.

In either case, a virtual space aims to organize the conference into a virtual format while still providing an experience similar to what can be had in a physical space. This creates a positive virtual experience and improves attendee engagement.
