I was able to apply learnings from this experience to a digital IT conference in the autumn where I produced three tracks on two different platforms (PGI and Webex Events), learnt to use the platforms, even ran PGI training sessions for my supporting producers and speakers. The exercise of working closely with track owners, managing content collection and scheduling rehearsals isn’t dissimilar to that on physical events. But content itself, speaker onboarding, and the technology of course, require a different approach and rehearsals are more important than ever.
