Conclusion
Most of us have learned to tolerate participating in virtual events that feature rather low quality . Fortunately for hotels , conference centers , and other meeting venues , we ’ re seeing evolutionary advances in the unified communications and collaboration ( UCC ) platforms ’ functionality and quality . Just as importantly , attendees themselves are beginning to be more aware of camera angles and lighting , actual and virtual backgrounds , microphones and room acoustics , etc . — in other words , all of the elements that support a more professional event that engages all attendees , both in-person and remote .
With a little planning and thoughtful application of the principles of ArchiTechnology , you can arrange for a hybrid event where remote attendees ’ experience is much more welcoming and enjoyable . And as a byproduct of intentionally designing an event space to accommodate hybrid meetings , the space itself becomes even more friendly and accommodating for the in-person , analog , and human attendee , as well . The quality of experience for both in-person and remote attendees is elevated , and you ’ re also setting new quality standards and exceeding customers ’ expectations . And that ’ s a great reputation to strive for in any marketplace .
