COVID-19 was an important catalyst for growth for the hybrid events. In the past, mainly physical events existed. In physical events, everyone is physically present at the event location, leading to physical contact and interaction. Thanks to technological innovations such as live streaming, improved camera technology and more stable Internet, online events have emerged. Here, events are broadcast via a live stream and followed en masse by interested parties via a computer, smartphone or tablet. This allows people to stay home while still attending an event. Webinars are a common application of this.
During the pandemic, it was mainly the latter type of event that gained popularity. Events were massively streamed from home, yet everyone feels the need to be together, interact and network. Many people also discovered the benefits of online events during this period. No wasting time in traffic, continuing to work or feeding the children are some of them.
Both forms of events offer numerous benefits, so why not combine them? Thus a new form of event conducting was born: a hybrid event!
Hybrid events allow spectators to attend the event both physically and online. So there is both an audience at the event, and it is broadcast via a live video or audio link. In doing so, the online portion not only consists of a live stream but also interacts with the online audience during the event. So a hybrid event is the perfect solution to take all possible outcomes into account.
