According to a survey by Umbrek, only about 40-70% of your audience are active attendees. The other half leave your event without ever speaking to the speakers they came to hear. This is the grim reality when event planners fail to encourage interaction between attendees and speakers in their events.
Thinking of planning your next hybrid event? We have a statistic that you’ll probably find insightful. According to Statista, 74.5% of event planners prefer hosting hybrid events as of 2025. Hence, you are in the correct direction if you think choosing hybrid events is the way forward.Â
Academic conferences are highly impacted by the quality of the abstracts they present. The success of the event rests on the shoulders of the researchers presenting their abstracts. These well-researched abstracts provide a glimpse into their hard work, creative ideas that the scholars have perceived. They become a core element that shapes the overall academic conference. The organizers also consider them and design the event that reflects diversity and depth.
Someone clicks ‘Register Now’ on your conference website and they fill out their name and email. They then select their ticket type. And boom, they vanish. No payment, no completion. If the thought of another abandoned registration in your analytics dashboard sounds too familiar, you’ve come to the right place.
This dreaded scenario for event organizers plays out far too often. You watch your conversion rates hover around 40-50% and begin to wonder where the other half of your potential attendees have disappeared to. What if we told you that some of these drop-offs are fairly preventable?
For most event organizers, one number that truly matters is the number of attendees at the event. The most important metric for the success of any event is the number of people in attendance. As an event manager, your joy must be through the roof as registration numbers climb, but when they don’t go as planned, panic sets in.
All event managers, regardless of their experience in work, will admit that planning an academic conference from start to finish is a herculean task. And rightfully, the process can feel overwhelming for all those involved. In such scenarios, it’s easier to make mistakes. More often than not, these mistakes are simple yet overlooked.
Non-profit organisations, regardless of their scope and area of work, find themselves battling the same challenge: raising adequate funds. The challenge of fundraising gets more complicated as NGOs attempt to generate revenue in a manner that’s sustainable and true to their ultimate mission.
A custom domain makes your event look official, keeps branding consistent, and improves trust at the exact moments that matter: registration, payments, and emails. This guide gets you live in minutes, with guardrails to protect SEO and email deliverability.
Using Dryfta Virtual Event Toolkit, events organizers can setup live events with live Q&A session for up to 10,000 attendees. To enable livestream and Q&A for such a large audience, we use a combination of Vimeo Livestream and Zoom.
A Zoom meeting is used by speakers to present the session and Vimeo is used to livestream that Zoom meeting to the participants watching live on Dryfta. When participants need to ask questions, they need to join the same Zoom meeting, where speakers are presenting, to ask questions.
Here’s a step-by-step process on how to set up the live event with live Q&A:
