Cost: Pay What You Can (Suggested donation $10)

During the current pandemic, MPIWSC is offering its virtual education sessions on a Pay What You Can basis. While we understand that many registrants are facing financial challenges, we ask you to consider a donation to help defray the costs of our speakers and education overhead so that we can continue to offer these sessions. The suggested donation is $10, but any amount, greater or smaller, is greatly appreciated.

As our industry moved from live events to virtual events during 2020, meeting professionals started to become familiar with how to produce an effective virtual event.  Although not ideal, there has been a reluctant acceptance of virtual events.

However, hybrid events are still a bit of a mystery to a lot of meeting professionals, and they are seen as complex and costly.  This presentation by Encore’s John Rissi, SVP, Customer & Industry Engagement and Debra Mategrano, Regional Sales Director, will focus on the six key drivers that every meeting professional needs to know about planning, producing, and executing a successful hybrid event.

After attending this program, attendees will be able to:

• Define a hybrid event and the benefits
• Understand the key drivers behind hybrid event success
• Understand how to apply the key drivers to common meeting types

This program is approved for 1 credit hour by EIC in Domain G: Meeting & Event Design.
