EVA brings you a complete set of attendee engagement tools that are designed to deliver value to members, increase engagement, enable attendees to grow their network, and participate more with the association.
One of the things that attendees look forward to is connecting with people from similar backgrounds and growing their network. EVA’s matchmaking enables attendees to meet with the right people at the right time, improve meeting quality and boost engagement. EVA’s AI-enabled matchmaking algorithm allows attendees to seamlessly connect with exhibitors/sponsors regardless of whether they are in-person or virtual. Encourage connections and extend conversations that go beyond the conference “walls”.
Enable attendees and exhibitors to mutually set appointments based on when organizers allow for networking and on availability. To accommodate various meeting modalities, EVA allows attendees to set an in-person or online meeting location. Attendees can manage all their appointments in-platform and sync with their Google, Outlook, or iCal calendars.
Encourage your attendees to explore different parts of your face-to-face or virtual event. Gamification from EVA lets you tap into your attendees’ competitive spirit. Reward them for attending sessions, joining roundtables, visiting exhibitor booths, and connecting with peers. Leverage gaming principles that include goals, points, badges, and leaderboards. Exhibitors and sponsors love the added exposure that drives them to their in-person or online advertising or exhibitor booth.
Facilitate real-time 1:1 video and text chat for attendees on EVA’s online conference platform. Allow your attendees to connect and collaborate hassle-free with other attendees, sponsors, or exhibitors, with whom they really want to engage.
Much like in-person meetings, attendees are looking to engage with other attendees outside of informative plenary and breakout sessions. EVA offers virtual networking rooms where attendees can gather to network, collaborate, and innovate. Whether it is a roundtable discussion, workshop, or casual networking room, attendees can join peers in a virtual room at a dedicated time with a dedicated purpose.
