Getting Started with Virtual Event and Webinar Program Management

While it's true that in-person events are ramping back up, virtual and hybrid events aren't going away. They've become a vital part of the events landscape and are still on track to continue their growth. According to recent research conducted by Vimeo, 72% of survey respondents indicated they plan to attend at least the same number of online events as they did during lockdown.

Maintaining on-going strategy, technical management, and delivering a consistent brand experience for your attendees while developing high-quality content consistently is daunting. Is it time to consider hiring a virtual event program services provider? Learn the essential elements to effective program management and how EventBuilder helps create and design managed programs, from first contact to implementation and beyond.

Get to Know EventBuilder

EventBuilder was given a new lease on life in 2016, when our all-female C-suite purchased the brand and assumed leadership. Since then, they have dedicated themselves to building the company on three important values:

  1. People first
  2. Compassion
  3. Integrity 

EventBuilder's leadership very intentionally engages with employees, the very core of the company, to help shape EventBuilder's identity and culture around those important core values. We are all incredibly proud of who we are and what we've built. We'd love to invite you to get to know us a little better!
