The cheapest deal does not always work out to be the cheapest. Checking the small print to check what might be included and what might be extras on the day delegate package is vital. This is where Conferences UK can really help, particularly when you are under time pressure.

The science of meeting: 
 Why getting together is so good for us

I

n the wake of a global pandemic, our daily lives have undergone a profound transformation. Remote work has become the norm, blurring the lines between personal space and professional engagements. Attending meetings, managing teams, and participating in events have seamlessly transitioned into activities that can be accomplished from the comfort of our homes. However, as we embrace this new era of convenience, we shouldn’t overlook the amazing benefits of in-person interactions. The value of attending events and conferences is far-reaching, perhaps even more so than before now that they have lowered in frequency. These gatherings provide a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and thrive.

Amidst the technological advancements that have revolutionised remote work, the resounding evidence from research and anecdotal experiences reaffirms the undeniable value of face-to-face interactions. While virtual meetings have made connectivity possible, in-person meetings go beyond just communication – they foster intimacy, empathy, and creativity, qualities that are challenging to replicate through screens.

The Science Behind In-Person Interaction

Over 80% of executives favour in-person meetings over virtual, noting that they facilitate timely business decisions and enhance complex strategic thinking. While some individuals might merely prefer in-person engagements over their virtual counterparts, are there concrete and tangible benefits to conducting faceto-face meetings?

Research shows that face-to-face requests are an astounding 34 times more effective than email-based ones and that physical handshakes contribute to cooperation and negotiation outcomes.

09

Over 80% of executives favour in-person meetings over virtual (...)


The Human Dynamics Lab at MIT dedicated numerous hours to monitoring factors influencing performance across various sectors. They achieved this by gathering data through electronic badges, encompassing aspects ranging from vocal tone to physical gestures. The findings undeniably demonstrated that the most effective form of communication occurs through direct, inperson interaction. Additionally, it was consistently observed that approximately 35 percent of the differences in a team's performance could be attributed to the frequency of face-to-face conversations among team members.

Cultivating Powerful Networks

Conferences are more than platforms for lectures; they are vibrant communities uniting individuals with shared passions and interests. After extended periods of isolation, in-person events offer a chance to reconnect with a diverse array of people from various geographic regions, cultural backgrounds, and technical expertise. For developers, the allure of networking with likeminded peers, sharing ideas, and gaining invaluable feedback is unparalleled. In a community that understands and values you, expanding your communication skills and sharing insights becomes an organic process, enhancing the professional journey.

Crafting Memorable Meetings

Not all meetings are equal, and this is where event planners and venues play a crucial role. The success of a meeting is not solely about the physical setting but the experience it offers. When teams consistently meet remotely rather than in-person, the possibility for creating a unique meeting experience is limited. The ability to transform a gathering into an engaging and welcoming environment is paramount. Innovative approaches, such as incorporating wellness and sustainability elements, can elevate the meeting experience.

Enriching Knowledge and Skills

Beyond the mere accumulation of knowledge, conferences offer a holistic learning experience. Engaging with talks and presentations exposes you to emerging technologies, unpublished data, and fresh perspectives.

How to make hybrid work for you:
 Rock your next hybrid event

H

osting a conference in 2023 does not look the same as it did ten years ago. With advancements in technology and learning to adapt due to the pandemic, the rise of virtual events has become a prevalent option. However, as we move forward, a new and exciting format has emerged - hybrid events. These events offer the best of both worlds, combining the benefits of in-person and virtual gatherings.

The Benefits of Hybrid Events

Increase Attendance Count: One of the most significant advantages of hybrid events is their potential to increase overall attendance. By providing a virtual option, you open up your event to a broader audience that may not have been able to attend in-person due to various constraints, such as travel distance or scheduling conflicts.

A Positive Return on Investment (ROI): Hybrid events can be more cost-effective than traditional in-person events. While there are costs associated with both physical and virtual aspects, hybrid events can reach a larger audience without the need for significant venue and accommodation expenses. The broader reach can also attract more sponsors and exhibitors, leading to increased revenue.

Mix-and-Match Delivery Formats: Hybrid events allow for flexibility in content delivery. Presenters can choose to deliver their sessions on-site or virtually, tailoring their approach to suit different audience segments. This mix-and-match approach enhances the event's variety and keeps attendees engaged throughout.

Basic Tips for a Successful Hybrid Event

Ensure You Have the Proper Budget: Hybrid events require a well-planned budget that considers both in-person and virtual aspects. Allocate resources for technology, audio-visual equipment, virtual event platforms, and marketing efforts. Having a clear budget plan ensures a smooth execution and prevents unexpected costs.

Be Seen and Heard Clearly: Communication is key in hybrid events. Invest in high-quality audiovisual equipment to ensure that both on-site and virtual attendees can hear and see presenters clearly. Poor audio or video quality can lead to disengagement and frustration.

Conceptualize Your Event: Work out the theme and experience of your event from start to finish. Consider how the hybrid format will enhance the event's core message. Plan engaging activities, interactive sessions, and opportunities for networking in both the physical and virtual realms.

Build Pre-event Anticipation Online: Leverage the power of social media and digital marketing to create buzz and excitement leading up to your hybrid event. Release teasers, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and speaker highlights to pique the interest of potential attendees. Offer exclusive content or early bird benefits to those who register early, enticing both in-person and virtual audiences.

15


Strive to create a seamless experience for both inperson and virtual attendees. Design interactive sessions that involve both audiences, such as live Q&A sessions, polls, and group activities

Choose the Right Venue and Event Platform: Selecting the right venue is crucial for the success of your in-person component. Ensure it can accommodate your desired number of attendees comfortably and adheres to safety and health protocols. Likewise, when choosing a virtual event platform, prioritize user-friendliness, interactive features, and reliable technical support. The platform should facilitate seamless engagement and networking opportunities for your virtual audience.

Hosting a Hybrid Event

Easy Registration Process: Simplify the registration process for both in-person and virtual attendees. Offer online registration options and provide clear instructions for access and participation. Streamline the check-in process for on-site attendees to minimize wait times and enhance their overall experience.

Audio Visual Production Team: To ensure a polished and professional hybrid event, consider hiring an experienced audio-visual production team. They will manage the technical aspects, such as live streaming, video production, and troubleshooting, ensuring a smooth and engaging experience for both audiences.

Engage Both Audiences Equally: Strive to create a seamless experience for both in-person and virtual attendees. Design interactive sessions that involve both audiences, such as live Q&A sessions, polls, and group activities. Encourage virtual attendees to participate actively by incorporating chat features and online networking opportunities.

Follow Up and Gather Feedback

After the event, follow up with both in-person and virtual attendees. Send out thank-you emails, share event highlights, and provide access to ondemand content. Additionally, gather feedback from attendees through surveys to gain insights into their experiences and areas for improvement. This feedback is invaluable for refining your approach for future hybrid events.

Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hilton Birmingham Metropole has been a mainstay of the events world since the 1970’s. With a prime central-UK location that is connected to the NEC Complex and a 5-minute walk from the Resorts World Arena, the hotel offers a professional but friendly service that entices clients back again and again.

During 2020 and 2021, Hilton Birmingham Metropole underwent a once-in-a-lifetime, transformational change as it refurbished and upgraded 618 of its rooms, all 66,000 square feet of event space and Four Food & Drink Venues. The ambitious programme has drawn significantly on the rich heritage of the city and incorporated contemporary nods to its industrial roots.

Among the changes are three new dining concepts The Arbor, Millers and Brightsmith on the Water, each bringing with them new-found versatility and choice to both hotel guests and organisers. As well as modernising its setting to great acclaim, the team has also formalised its focus on inclusivity by launching its A Place For Everyone initiative.
