The best technologies for corporate events

Corporate events have undergone a radical transformation thanks to the application of new technologies. Since 2022, the organization of MICE (Meeting, Incentives, Conferencing and Exhibitions) events has become more efficient and versatile, especially with the proliferation of events that combine in-person and virtual environments. These advancements have not only streamlined the planning process but also enhanced attendee engagement through interactive tools and immersive experiences.

Current trends such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are redefining the way we experience and participate in these events. With these technologies, the organizer leads the way and immerses attendees in the digitalization of immersive experiences. It is no longer just about witnessing an event; now it is about experiencing it in a unique and personal way with those around you, in an interactive environment. Also, why not improve security, have access to relevant data and facilitate entry to the venues? In this post we will analyze how to make your event reach higher levels and not just remain an event to attend, but also one to experience and participate in.

Transforming Event Management with Technology

More and more event promoters are looking to improve their event management. Event management has evolved thanks to technology, allowing companies to organize events more effectively. From planning to execution, the use of event technology such as matchmaking apps aims to offer attendees experiences that further engage the audience. A dedicated event app would allow for more fluid interaction, offer real-time information and improve attendee engagement, as well as provide greater accessibility in many necessary information fields. Event wristbands are a solution that few consider, which is both affordable and convenient.

Adapting to Changing Circumstances

The COVID-19 pandemic has spurred the rapid adoption of hybrid events. Applied technology has allowed initial planning to be adapted to the circumstances, ensuring the safety and interaction of attendees. A clear example of this is the use of facial recognition technology at in-person events to streamline the registration process and improve security.

The use of streaming has been instrumental in offering moments of greater involvement in the management of virtual events and conferences. In addition, augmented reality (AR) has raised participation to new heights, providing differentiated and memorable experiences for the target audience. Certain in-person events can incorporate live broadcasts to reach virtual audiences, while AR can be used to access all information and incorporate additional information to physical attendees through their mobile devices.

2024: New Technologies that will Define the Future of Congresses

As we move into 2024 and into 2023, more advanced event platforms, enhanced apps, and technological solutions like holograms and facial recognition will continue to define the way events are planned and experienced. The implementation of holographic presentations virtually will give attendees a more immersive experience with easy access to content they wouldn’t miss in person. Video mapping and holography are like magic paintbrushes that transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, turning any space into a vibrant canvas where reality intertwines with fantasy, bringing to life a visual symphony that challenges the boundaries of what is possible.

For instance, the gamergy 2023 esports event highlights showcased how hybrid formats can cater to diverse audiences, bringing together gamers from around the world both online and onsite. As a result, organizers can now reach larger audiences, drive higher participation rates, and create memorable experiences that resonate long after the events conclude.

Active Participation: Technology and Networking in Harmony

Active participation of attendees has become an essential priority in the organization of corporate events today. Innovative real-time survey and voting applications are key to improving agile corporate communication, encouraging interaction between organizers, speakers and the general public in the events and congress sector.

Glow Experience’s interactive event wristbands take MICE events one step further with their remote-operated controllers.

The benefit of implementing these technological dynamics lies in the fact that it allows instant access to relevant information and audience opinions. In this way, the pulse of the event is taken and improvements or positive aspects are identified to iterate and report on.

Another clear example of technology to enhance events are virtual networking platforms. These digital spaces connect all the event stakeholders (attendants, speakers, sponsors, etc.) facilitating contact before, during and after the event. Glow Experience accompanied Westcon at a corporate event organised in Madrid for its partner programme, where attendees were able to enjoy an evening of meetings and guaranteed entertainment.

This creates an environment conducive to encouraging collaborations at partner events, resolving queries and exchanging valuable information between participants. And most importantly, it lasts beyond the physical event in order to create immersive experiences.

Ultimately, the feedback generated thanks to these interactive technologies applied to events becomes a great opportunity to improve the way future events are organised. By sharing opinions and data at the same time, event promoters can gauge attendee satisfaction and redirect aspects that can be improved on the fly.

Key Tools for Communication

The Internet and social media have established themselves as essential players in the field of new technologies for events. Thanks to hyperconnectivity, event organizers can find out the opinions and preferences of attendees in real time before, during and after the event.

A clear example is the live interaction via social networks such as X, LinkedIn or Instagram during conferences and presentations. Attendees share their doubts, opinions and assessments on the topics discussed. In turn, hosts monitor these channels to optimize and answer questions, as well as collect valuable feedback to find out the opinion of attendees.

This digital conversation around the event also intensifies relationships between attendees themselves. By discussing the content of the presentations, opportunities arise to make professional contacts that can last beyond the event.

In short, technology applied to corporate events is eliminating barriers and shortening distances between the public and event promoters. Some can express their concerns instantly, others can respond, thus improving the experience on the fly and building loyalty.

The use of drones, NFC, and virtual reality adds a new dimension to events. These technologies significantly improve the planning process and offer more immersive experiences. Using drones to capture highlights during in-person events and broadcast their image is proof that event technology can reach out to more audiences and include them in the creation of immersive experiences.

Measuring ROI has become more precise with tools like webinars and video conferencing. Social media engagement and technological innovation translate into a clear and measurable return on investment for each event. For example, webinar participation can translate into qualified leads and tangible conversions.

Navigating into the Future of Tech Events

The evolution of the events sector, driven by technology, is undeniable.

Each new event seeks to surpass the previous one by taking advantage of the latest innovations to surprise the public with impressive experiences.

The constant competition to offer the latest in immersive and experiential technology drives the industry towards an exciting future full of possibilities. What dazzles us today, tomorrow becomes the standard.

In this way, the “how” becomes more important every day compared to the “what”.

A few years ago, Artificial Intelligence would have seemed like science fiction to us, but now we see it incorporated naturally into our reality in the creation of content, speeches, scripts…

Faced with globalization and homogenization in the way of doing business, the importance of how you transmit the message is increasingly greater when it comes to standing out and differentiating yourself from the rest.

In a future where most people will have the opportunity to create elaborate and compelling messages, the industry is defending itself (for now) by accompanying content with different sensory experiences that add value and stimulate the human side of it all.
