Want to Avoid A Virtual Event Snooze-fest? Let’s Get Creative!

 

Are you producing a massive conference, excited about how many attendees you’ll have in a digital platform, but struggling for ways to deliver value to your event sponsors or provide opportunities for your attendees to engage with one another outside of a chatbox? Maybe you’re interested in hosting a fun event for your team this holiday season—while socially distanced—and simply don’t know where to start.

In this video, Kennedy Events Partner Paige Buck and Senior Producer and Creative Director Marianne Jackson had a lot of fun talking about the why and how of what works for meaningful social engagement during virtual events. Yes, it’s possible to thrive even when it’s not live! 

During the conversation, we answer the following questions:

  • How can you make your event memorable and not a snooze-fest? 

  • What are some options for sending your guests something fun that ties into your event goal?

  • How can you create moments for attendees to connect with one another in-person, face-to-face, or outside of sessions?

  • How can you give sponsors opportunities to connect with virtual conference-goers and have their brand associated with something social during your event? 

Kennedy Events will be offering more of these short video discussions on all aspects of virtual event planning, so check back with us soon.

Paige Buck

Paige has been herding cats, err, masterminding details for more than 20 years, and been partner at KE since 2011. As a natural in front of and behind the scenes, she discovered her talent for coordinating large productions during her undergrad theatre days. Paige is an East-coast native, but made her mark on the Bay Area nonprofit and tech scene with her mad logistical and fundraising skills. Paige goes sailing on the SF bay every chance she gets, and especially loves when she can bring her pibble pup (the best word around for Pitbull mix). Kennedy Events is lucky to have Paige and her caffeinated smarts on the team!
