What do you think is the one thing that your conference attendees wouldn’t appreciate? If your answer is long queues outside the event venue, then you’re probably still stuck with traditional ways of event check-ins. As with all aspects of organizing an event, the check-in process has also evolved. Organizers today don’t shy away from exploring various digital tools for a smoother attendee check-in process at events.
Integrating your event CRM is the final and most important step in your journey toward data-driven event planning. Many organizers tend to disregard this decisive process. Perhaps they think to themselves, “I’ve set up my registration system and abstract management portal, what else matters now?” Yes, the most difficult part of getting your systems operational is behind you.

Have you ever been to an event where the vibe of the place was just electric? As if everyone was there not only physically but mentally too, working, connecting, and sharing ideas. Such is the effect of real attendee engagement.
Virtual events: two words that have become part of our everyday vocabulary in the modern digital space. The rapid adoption and subsequent evolution of virtual event platforms in only a few years is remarkable. Despite video conferencing technology being available for public use for over a decade, a fully immersive virtual event was always a fairly distant concept for most people.
Communicating effectively is the single most vital component of an abstract review process that leads to success. When authors receive regular updates, clear directions, and accurate feedback, they can complete the submission and revision stages without any issues. Event organisers, in contrast, save themselves the trouble of confusion, get fewer follow-up questions, and keep a professional workflow going from the beginning to the end.
Picture this. You walked into a cafe and asked for a flat white with almond milk. After a few days of ordering your usual, you notice that every time you ask for this specific type of coffee, the barista messes it up. There goes your morning ritual! If the lack of personalization can ruin something as simple as a coffee drinking experience, imagine how detrimental it can be in the context of academic events. This is why event organizers today spend considerable energy on event personalization to create an unforgettable attendee experience.
