As inflation continues to rise and disposable incomes stagnate or go backwards, it’s no surprise that many of us are tightening our budgets and reducing our spending. Like just about every other sector, this difficult period is likely to impact the events industry.

However, while video does give us face-to-face contact, the way we communicate changes. To help attendees get most from a virtual event, we take look at how people can network effectively online.
Event professionals are feeling the pressure to win back audiences by delivering events that excite attendees. Nowhere is this more of a challenge than in the competitive world of virtual events.
