Attention is one of the scarcest resources of the 21st century. Our attendees have more competition for their attention than ever before which means that marketing is more difficult and keeping them engaged on site is challenging too. So what can we do as event planners to make our events more engaging? In this session, we’ll talk about 25+ ideas to keep your attendees engaged using technology – from social media to apps to gamification, your next event will leave guests craving more! Learning Objectives: Identify their audience demographics and tech experience. Create an engagement plan for their events after being inspired by the ideas shared. Understand the role that technology plays in high-engagement events.
