Getting real about virtual events

Learn something new every day

Virtual events have removed the constraints of travel, parking and security check-in times, but their back-to-back volumes can make for overwhelming choice and calendar overlaps. For those that do make the effort to Zoom in, you’re usually guaranteed some form of valuable take out from the thought leadership of those that have bravely jumped into the virtual space (otherwise you’d be giving the lecture yourself).

On track with event registration goals

Bizcommunity’s platforms and one-on-one service levels have a proven track record of getting desired responses to industry event promotion, allowing event organisers to take care of planning a successful event, while we take care of promotions.

Event requirements such as calls-for-entry, nominations and early bird tickets hit the mark on Biz, with high daily visibility to 490,000 business-to-business readers, via 19 targeted industry verticals. This year we have successfully assisted client PR and eventing companies in ensuring Nedbank IMC Conference, Prism Awards, IAB Bookmarks Awards, VMLY&R Live from the Edge and the Africa Brand Summit reached and surpassed registration targets.
