Challenge
The COVID-19 pandemic forced our client to do an 180 degree turn in their business and embrace change. They needed to go digital and offer virtual events, webinars and conferences.
The tech-driven change needed to happen as fast as possible, in order to be able to deliver value to their clients.
Spoiler Alert!
Strong challenge: to help a company on the digital transformation of their core business with a strong time constraint and hard deadlines.
Successfully developed a high-quality virtual events platform, and The Logistics World remains today the market leader.
Solution
Even though The Logistics World had a business value proposition based on on-site events that was interrupted by the COVID19 pandemic, within a 3 month period we managed to build the digital assets so they could continue to deliver value to their clients.
We built a reusable, customizable 360° virtual event platform that allows a strong brand communication, both for The Logistics World and their clients.
While enabling detailed activity tracking of every attendee, the platform grants a seamless real time communication between attendees and the event’s sponsors, and enable targeting specific messages at the right time.
As the platform traffic might have strong variations, it was built on AWS technology to guarantee site reliability during peak times, with thousands of concurrent users.
Results
- Successful virtual events platform built from scratch on time and on budget
- Reusable platform used for more than 5 years, that complements now it’s core business
- More than 8000 attendees per event
- Platform with an easy set up for new conferences and webinars
- 100% presence of our client’s brand across the platform
