The ever-changing landscape of events in 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was exciting to see the success of \u2018Get Local\u2019<\/a> held at the ICC in Sydney, in February 2022. The event aimed to get the business events community back doing what they do best: connecting, engaging, and meeting person-to-person. This was certainly achieved and done very well.<\/p>\n

As we head further into 2022 and the new Omicron variant spreads, we wonder what the future for events and living with COVID-19 holds.<\/p>\n

We are seeing some hesitancy in early delegate registration for events, as people appear to be waiting to see what is going to unfold. So, we are anticipating a late event registration rush just before an event. We are also seeing a reduction in overall sponsors\u2019 2022 budgets, so it is important to have creative and attractive sponsorship packages and to approach sponsors with as much lead time as possible.<\/p>\n

Whilst organisers are therefore starting to consider \u2018going hybrid\u2019, the choice of platform and provider needs to be considered carefully, otherwise hybrid can be a very costly extra.<\/p>\n

HYBRID PLATFORM CHOICE<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is a multitude of hybrid platforms of significantly varying features and prices in the marketplace. It is therefore important to drill down and list exactly<\/em> which features you will use and want to provide for your attendees, speakers and sponsors during your event.<\/p>\n

It can be costly from both a resource and dollar perspective, to set up a hybrid platform for your event. So, if only some, but not all the features in a certain platform are going to be used, there may be an alternative solution that is more suitable for your event.<\/p>\n
