HYBRID CONFERENCE FAQS
WHAT IS A HYBRID CONFERENCE?
A hybrid conference combines a "live" in-person conference with a "virtual" online conference. One event - two audiences.
WHY ARE WE GOING HYBRID?
We are going hybrid because some people may not be able to travel as a result of the pandemic or its economic impact. By providing both opportunities, it makes the event accessible for all. The hybrid format will enable more people to participate in the conference than ever before, joining online from their workplace.
WILL THE ONLINE PROGRAMME BE DIFFERENT TO THE IN-PERSON PROGRAMME?
The format of the online conference will be the same as the in-person conference and will feature keynote presentations and concurrent breakout sessions. Live moderated Q&As will run after many of the main presentations with questions from both audiences. Workshops will be the only sessions run separately and will be assigned specifically for breakout groups in-person, and breakout groups online.
While online attendee cannot physically attend the social functions or visit the exhibitors in person, there will be time for interactive networking online and opportunities to explore the Virtual Exhibition, where you will be able to engage directly with exhibitors and sponsors.
WHAT CAN I ACCESS THROUGH ONLINE REGISTRATION?
Online registrants will have access to the online platform which will enable you to:
- View keynote presentations and breakout sessions and ask questions live.
- Participate in live interactive networking functions.
- Visit the Virtual Exhibition to meet and interact with exhibitors.
- Pre-arrange meetings with delegates, presenters & exhibitors through the meeting hub.
- Utilise a suite of tools to enhance your attendance including live Q&A, event notes, contact exchange and downloadable content.
- Access to session recordings for two months following the meeting (online attendees are encouraged to attend live sessions if possible to cultivate networking and participation).
ONCE REGISTERED AS AN IN-PERSON ATTENDEE, CAN I CHANGE MY REGISTRATION TO ONLINE?
Yes, changes either way will be possible. Registrations are fully flexible and can be switched up to 14 days prior to the conference. If your circumstances change online registrations can be changed to in-person and vice versa. Book now, switch later if you need to. You will then either be refunded or invoiced for the difference in registration fee.
WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY LINK TO THE ONLINE PLATFORM?
Access to the online platform will be sent by email one week prior to the conference. Please check your junk folder if you do not receive the access email, or email lianza@theconferencecompany.com
WILL SESSIONS BE PRE-RECORDED OR LIVE?
The programme will be a mix of pre-recorded and live presentations. In many cases presenters will be live (whether in person or streamed) to answer audience questions.
WILL ATTENDEES BE ABLE TO ASK QUESTIONS AND PARTICIPATE IN SESSIONS?
Questions can be submitted by online and in-person delegates in each session through an integrated live Q&A text function. The chair will select and ask the presenter questions from those submitted.
WHAT COMPUTER CAPABILITIES DO I NEED TO BE AN ONLINE PARTICIPANT?
We recommend that you have reliable internet to get the most out of the conference. Hardwired internet is generally more reliable and faster than WiFi.
You will be provided with a weblink to the online conference platform. Google Chrome is the recommended browser for the conference web application. If you typically use Internet Explorer or Safari, it is recommended that you download Chrome prior to the conference. Full online support will be available to all the virtual attendees, speakers and exhibitors before and during the conference.
We strongly advise that you participate in the conference via your desktop or laptop computer that has speakers. Mobile devices are supported however the best experience will be via computer.
WHAT IS A VIRTUAL EXHIBITION?
Just like the traditional exhibition at the in-person conference, attendees can visit the virtual exhibition hall and engage with exhibitors. Many exhibitors will have a presence in both spaces. Attendees can view exhibitor information, download brochures, and when the exhibition is open, engage in instant meetings, by video, with exhibitors.
