Event Tech Live launches dedicated US and Canada show
Event Tech Live is launching a dedicated show for the US and Canada this year, before the UK-based event returns to London in November with a hybrid edition.
Event Tech Live USA & Canada takes place on Tuesday 8 and Wednesday 9 June 2021, and will run to Central Standard Time, six hours behind GMT.
ETL USA & Canada will replicate the content and focus on technology of the UK show, with a steer towards the solutions helping organisers to keep hosting events through the pandemic and, ultimately, the pivot back to some sort of normal.
IBTM’s TechWatch winner
IBTM World Virtual crowned the winner of its TechWatch programme, which sees a series of event tech startups pitching to a panel of judges.
The finalists were narrowed down to five, with Clipr being picked as the eventual winner. Clipr uses machine learning to analyse lengthy videos of recorded event content, breaking it down into more easily consumable chunks. It also creates ‘meeting recaps’ to allow delegates without lots of time to catch up quickly.
Clipr beat out four others to the top spot: ConsensIQ, Pubshere Exhibits, Socio and Troop.
ConsensIQ is a tool for live polling inside virtual or live events. It allows presenters and hosts to create realtime polls, with delegates given 100 ‘points’ to assign to each answer. The company’s pitch was centred on “harnessing the wisdom of the crowd” to make decisions and gather data.
