Walk-through 9: Connecting event participants in real-time

Walk-through 9: Connecting event participants in real-time



Hey everyone,

One of the main reasons why people go to events is to network with others and build new relationships. Sharing their thoughts and gaining insight from other like-minded peers helps participants get the most out of an event. How can you create an avenue for people at your event to start forging new connections?
 
Let's discuss connecting event participants with discussion channels.



With Backstage you can set up and manage discussion channels for different purposes on the event microsite. Channels enable attendees to interact with speakers, organizers, and other event participants before, during, and after the event.
 
  • Bring people together by creating discussion channels for various topics circling around the event.
  • Modify the name or description, add more members, and change the privacy level by editing a discussion channel.
  • Participate in public discussions started by others and view all the channels you're a part of in one place.
 
You can also encourage attendees to communicate with others using the attendee mobile app for  Android and  iOS .
  
Let us know how you were able to channel event discussions below. To get answers to all your product related questions, visit our help center , or write to us at support@zohobackstage.com
