Ungerboeck launches new platform to back virtual events

Mindful of how events have changed as venues have been closed during Coronavirus lockdowns, Ungerboeck has developed new and innovative solutions to give its international customer community the flexibility they need in order to host events in the ‘new normal’ - from virtual, to hybrid, to safe onsite events experiences.

With 62% of event professionals considering hybrid event concepts, the technology provider has enhanced its event management software to facilitate the organisation of both virtual and in-person experiences.

Ungerboeck’s solution adds powerful virtual functionality for events including:

Registration: easily manage registration to virtual and in-person components of an event creating a seamless experience for attendees and allowing flexibility to switch to a virtual experience at any point.

Live streaming of sessions: deliver live sessions and make recordings available on demand after the event on the event microsite.

Virtual exhibitions: a dedicated area for exhibitors to showcase their latest solutions and engage with visitors through virtual booths in a fun and interactive fashion.

Engagement tools: live interaction between participants, speakers and exhibitors through chats, comments and surveys.

Awards & Competitions capabilities: allowing organiser to manage competitions and awards with a full process for submission and judging.

Ungerboeck President and Chief Executive, Manish Chandak sees that bringing an event to the virtual world opens new possibilities of measuring event success and making data-driven decisions. Thanks to comprehensive insights, the overall attendee engagement during the event experience can be heightened via recommendations and engagement scores. Event organisers can cater to attendees’ interests and build personalised experiences. Plus, the platform provides valuable data and insights for both the exhibitor and organiser to inform and improve future event experiences.

Chandak explains “our new virtual event solution is fully integrated with the Ungerboeck event management platform. It has been developed with the attendee, organiser, exhibitor and venue in mind.

“We wanted to offer event professionals a product that would not only deliver online content to remote participants but also drive engagement and provide valuable insights on the overall event experience. With the addition of virtual events, Ungerboeck now provides the Total Event Experience - Onsite, Online and Ongoing.”
