Hybrid events

What is a hybrid event?

Hybrid events offer the perfect mix of a digital and an in-person experience. By using smart techniques, you can involve both target groups in the program. This way you give the live audience and the online viewers the best possible experience! When done right, these two worlds reinforce each other and therefore contribute to the success of your event.

The advantages of hybrid events:

√ Expand your audience globally
√ Inclusive and accessible events
√ Cut down on travel and accommodation costs
√ Save time for participants
√ Connect with diverse target audiences
√ Offer ‘on-demand’ content after the event

How to organize a hybrid event?

The first thing to realize is that a hybrid event is NOT the same as putting a camera in the back and live-streaming the full program. Organizing a hybrid event means that you, as an event organizer, create two parallel programs: one for your in-person audience, and one for the online viewers. This requires investment of extra time and money, in order to develop a suitable experience for both audiences.

For many people, digital and hybrid events are a blind spot. The can feel complex, challenging and risky. We understand that. That is why We Are Live loves to be involved from the get-go. We help you determine your event objectives, select the proper format and create the right content. And, of course, take care of your livestream & camera's. We do this as a partner, not a supplier.

When NOT to organize a hybrid event

In some cases, it can be a better idea to host an in-person or digital event. These are valid reasons not to choose a hybrid form:

❌ You don’t have enough budget 
❌ The online audience is not crucial in order to achieve the event goals
❌ Your speakers are not used to cameras
❌ You don’t have time to create a parallel program for the two events
❌ You don’t see the added value of a hybrid event
