Blog Episode #1_The impact of hybrid events in a circular and inclusive society

Hybrid events are now here to stay, and technologies now offer endless options and possibilities to grow your audience, improve users experience, extend the impact of events long term, and increase ROI for sponsors and clients. But this requires a deep reflection and analyze about the real meaning behind ‘hybrid’ events and what purpose such ‘power’ should serve. Social and environmental responsibility also applies to events. This episode is converted from a blog post: http://the-eaproject.com/2021/02/12/the-impact-of-hybrid-events-in-a-circular-and-inclusive-society/
