In this video message, hear about ways to move forward with your conference during the current pandemic. IU Conferences can help structure your conference to meet safely in person or can advise and assist in delivering it virtually.
Hosting your virtual conference
IU Conferences can help you facilitate a successful virtual conference. If you can’t safely meet in person, don’t let that stop you from sharing your important ideas and research. IU Conferences has vetted several of the top virtual platforms and can recommend the best fit for your conference’s unique needs.
The same planning elements that are critical to the success of an in-person conference are essential for a virtual conference. Effective communications and marketing, solid budgeting, competent contract negotiations, and the quality of the participant experience are just a few. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the content.
