Many corporate planners ask, why are Hybrid Event Production Companies so popular? The short answer, is due to the growing “Hybrid Meeting” popularity and cost-effectiveness of virtual events. Additionally, hybrid events have become a popular way of increasing participation in traditional events at a relatively low cost. Furthermore, they also enable participation by people who might be unable to attend physically due to travel or time zone constraints. There are many benefits to Hybrid event production that we explain below.
Integrate technology with Hybrid Events
Hybrid meetings integrate technology with traditional event practices to create new types of attendee experiences and content delivery tools. As a result, they include any meeting or event with at least one group of face-to-face participants that digitally connects with participants. This is achieved, in another or multiple locations setting. Naturally, the best hybrid events create unique experiences for different types of participants in different places. Finally, it is important that we combine functionalities of face-to-face events and those of virtual meetings into hybrid events. Our process, will ultimately enable meeting planners to have a much broader spectrum of options to engage attendees.
Engagement is the key to Success in Hybrid meetings
Engagement is the key ingredient in hybrid events and a successful outcome. In addition, it’s what separates your event from a video on YouTube. We can provide engaging Virtual Activities with gamification at your event, both remotely and in -person. Engagement, is also what distinguishes a hybrid event from a live event with tech elements. In conclusion, your audience won’t be watching your event from their television. Ultimately, they’ll take part via their mobile devices or their computer, meaning they can offer feedback in real time.

Typically, a smaller scale/ one day Hybrid event can be priced between $5,995 to $25,000. Larger Scale events can fall between $25,000 to $80,000 that have larger audiences and more programming elements to consider like keynote presentations, general session and multiple speaking tracks.
Based on the scale of production and individual event needs, a Hybrid event can last 1-4 hours for a one day event or 6-8 hours each day for a multi day event. One of the benefits of hosting a hybrid event is that participants can attend virtually from all over the world. They also can have access to on-demand content if they miss the live streaming sessions.
