The Benefits of Event Apps in the Event Planning Toolbox

Incorporating event apps into your event planning strategy offers a comprehensive suite of advantages that extend well beyond basic operational improvements. These digital tools, exemplified by the innovative solutions from 6Connex, are revolutionizing the way events are conducted, experienced, and remembered. Here’s an expanded look at the benefits these apps bring to the event planning toolbox:

Enhanced Engagement

Event apps elevate the attendee experience by incorporating interactive elements such as live Q&A sessions, real-time polls, and personalized networking opportunities. These features not only keep attendees engaged but also foster a sense of community and interaction, even in virtual or hybrid settings. By enabling participants to share insights, ask questions, and connect with one another, event apps ensure that every voice can be heard, and every session can be as dynamic and interactive as possible.

Operational Efficiency

The ability to manage event logistics in real-time directly from a smartphone or tablet empowers organizers to make immediate adjustments, ensuring events run smoothly regardless of unexpected challenges that events may bring. This agility in event management—from updating schedules when things suddenly change to sending out instant notifications when your speaker is a no-show—helps minimize potential disruptions and keeps both staff and attendees informed and prepared.

Data Insights

With integrated analytics tools, event apps provide a goldmine of data on attendee preferences, behaviors, and engagement levels. Organizers can leverage this information to make data-driven decisions, enhancing the relevance and impact of their events. This insight allows for the continuous improvement of event content, formats, and marketing strategies, ensuring each event is better than the last.

The Eventory Operator app offers vital data insights, enabling organizers to analyze attendee engagement in real-time. Its analytics tools track session attendance, engagement, and feedback, providing a detailed understanding of audience preferences. This data drives informed decisions for immediate and future event improvements, ensuring content and activities resonate with attendees.

Convenience

Event apps centralize all necessary information and functionalities, making it easier for attendees to plan their participation, access event materials, and connect with others. This all-in-one approach simplifies the event experience, making it more enjoyable and accessible for everyone involved. Attendees appreciate the convenience of having everything they need in the palm of their hand, from navigating the event agenda to accessing speaker bios and presentation materials to accessing the map to find your nearest Uber.

Sustainability

By digitizing event components such as ticketing, schedules, and brochures, event apps significantly reduce the environmental footprint of events. This move towards digital solutions aligns with growing eco-consciousness among organizations and attendees alike. It demonstrates a commitment to sustainability by minimizing waste and conserving resources, a factor that increasingly influences attendee perceptions and choices.

6Connex champions sustainability in event management by transitioning event elements to digital formats, substantially reducing the environmental impact of events. This digital shift aligns with increasing environmental awareness and meets the demand for eco-friendly event options.

Committed to leading sustainability efforts, 6Connex, a fully remote company, leverages its platform to help organizations worldwide cut down their carbon footprint. By collaborating with environmental science firm WSP, 6Connex quantifies the carbon emissions saved through virtual events, reinforcing its commitment to a greener future. This initiative not only highlights 6Connex's dedication to sustainable practices but also positions it at the forefront of the eco-conscious movement within the event industry.

Personalization

Event apps offer personalized experiences to attendees by recommending sessions, connecting like-minded individuals, and tailoring content to individual preferences. This level of personalization ensures that each attendee can make the most out of the event, aligning with their interests and professional goals.

Security and Compliance

With features designed to protect user data and ensure compliance with privacy regulations, event apps offer a secure platform for information exchange and networking. This is particularly important in an era where data privacy is a top concern for both organizers and attendees.

6Connex has established a benchmark for security in the event industry, backed by decades of experience in securing virtual environments. This is highlighted by its achievement of the ISO 27001 certification in 2017, signifying adherence to the highest standards of information security management globally.

Global Reach

Event apps extend the reach of in-person, virtual, and hybrid events beyond geographical limitations, enabling organizers to engage with a global audience right from the palm of their hand. This technology not only amplifies the potential audience size but also brings a wealth of diverse perspectives and experiences into the event, enriching it for all participants. Whether attendees are physically present or joining from afar, event apps ensure everyone has access to the same valuable content and networking opportunities, truly globalizing the event experience.

The integration of event apps into the event planning process not only enhances the attendee experience but also provides organizers with powerful tools for management, insight, and engagement. The comprehensive benefits offered by platforms like 6Connex's suite of event apps highlight the transformative potential of technology in the event industry, making these digital solutions indispensable for modern event planning.

6Connex and Anima International: A Triumph in Hybrid Event Innovation

Anima International's decision to host their CARE 2022 Conference in a hybrid format using 6Connex's Eventory technology marked a significant milestone in the event planning industry, particularly highlighting the power and versatility of event mobile apps.

The Success Story

The Challenge: Transitioning to a hybrid format for their conference in Warsaw, Anima International needed a solution to blend in-person and virtual experiences seamlessly.

Key Achievements:

  • Enhanced Engagement: The integration of in-person and online elements via the Eventory app led to highly interactive and engaging sessions.
  • Robust Networking: The event facilitated significant online connections and message exchanges, underlining the app's effectiveness in fostering networking.
  • High Satisfaction: Attendees expressed immense satisfaction with the event's format, particularly praising the intuitive use of push notifications and live Q&A sessions through the app.
