September, 2020 Advertising Feature 25 A dedicated project manager as well as a tech manager from Swapcard were on board to ensure they had everything they needed to pull off a successful online event. Adaptable, ready to listen and quick to improve our product according to client needs, Swapcard’s support starts long before and ends long after the event. Some post-event calls were made to help the GL events team analyze statistics: how to study them, and how to highlight important information. “Our transition from physical to online was very quick. We instantly knew we had to find out which features Swapcard offered to organise an online event,”, said Marjorie Barret, communication manager at GL events Exhibition The results of Global Industrie Connect paid off. With 6,144 attendees during the virtual trade show, 543 meetings were scheduled, 18,588 conversations were created, and there was an average of 131 viewers on product webinars. “The results of our collaboration with Swapcard were super. We successfully created a digital event in as little as two months, offering a great alternative to all our attendees and exhibitors,” said Martin Capdeviole, communication and marketing manager at GL events.
