One significant challenge of online conferences is the significant time commitment they often require. In exchange for what can sometimes be a small value addition, attendees may find themselves investing hours of their day. Enter the concept of bite-sized conferences. Speakers have the floor for just 15-20 minutes, followed by a brief 10-15 minute Q&A session moderated to keep things on track. In an era where attention spans are fleeting, brevity seems to be the name of the game. What do you think? #conference

Association - conferences what do you need to be aware of.. Our friends at Cvent have put together this amazing checklist for planning conferences, check it out on the Membership World community Common objectives of a large-scale conference Deliver educational content to members: A key objective of association conferences is to provide professional development and educational opportunities for association members. Conferences can equip association members with the tools and insights needed to stay ahead in their respective fields. Advocacy and industry promotion: Conferences serve as a platform for associations to promote and advocate for their industries. They bring together professionals from various organisations, allowing them to showcase their work, products, and services to a wider audience, such as policymakers, media representatives, and potential clients. Drive new membership: Conferences are an excellent opportunity for the association to attract new members and drive membership dues. The events showcase the benefits of association membership, such as access to resources, forming part of a community and discounts on industry products. Build community: Large-scale conferences are a perfect opportunity to offer your members the chance to network, build and nurture relationships, and feel like they are part of a community. #conferences #cvent #eventtech #checklist

One of the most facinating aspects of digital collaborations is travelling the globe for conferences, presentations and webinars....even if the events take place during my (Melbourne time) night-time. It was once again a true pleasure! #digitaltransformationbedtimestories
