New! Zoom Events - Now you can run your own event and conferences online
by David Ball // Zoom Product Marketing Specialist
Last month, Zoom successfully hosted more than 33,000 global attendees at Zoomtopia 2021 using their very own Zoom Events solution. Today, they announced that Zoom Events license holders can now host their own multi-day and multi-session conferences!
With the Conference event type, event planners and hosts have even more ways to host impactful virtual experiences, manage large events, and better engage attendees. Take a look at what has been added to Zoom Events.
Here are some of the helpful new features you’ll get with Zoom Events:
More ways to support your event preparation
Simplify how you design, host, and execute your event with:
Multi-day and multi-track support: Spread your event over five days and support up to 13 concurrent sessions
Batch agenda uploading: Easily upload session and speaker information with a single click
Session videos: Add a sizzle reel or informative video to prepare attendees for a session or introduce speakers
Event co-editor: Hosting an event is a team effort! Share the workload by assigning up to 20 event co-editors
Speaker session and bio editing: Give speakers the control to edit their session and bios. Hosts will have the ability to approve edits before pushing them live.
Enhanced features for engaging your audience
Wow your attendees and enable greater connections with robust in-event features including:
