Virtual Stage
The Virtual Stage is a space for your host's speakers to present keynotes, share ideas, and engage in discussion with one another and an audience. The Virtual Stage offers space for a lead conversation by a live speaker, pre-recorded video content, or a mix of both. The audience access to their camera and microphone are removed to encourage focus on the speaker and shared content and to limit any distractions. The audience has the opportunity to engage with the speakers and one another via event chat, Q&A, polls, and emoji reactions.
Our Virtual Stage is a perfect place for you and your team to host events and webinars with an audience of any capacity! If you are looking to host recurring webinars or a one-day speaker-packed event, our Virtual Stage is the answer.

But what if you are looking to involve your audience more in the discussion? Or have a breakout with your audience and speakers in a more intimate setting? You need a Networking Hub!
Networking Hub
The Networking Hub provides a space for your attendees to engage in intimate conversations within 'Circles' before and/or after a live session β or on a stand-alone session of its own! There is a variety of use cases for a Networking Hub including the following:
Community Building
Sponsored Content
Exhibition Halls
Demo Sessions
Speed Dating
Virtual Office
and more!
All use cases are meant to accomplish the same end goal β networking. The Networking Hub allows you to create an unlimited number of 'Circles' that your attendees can freely go in and out of. All attendees will have the opportunity to enable their camera and microphone within a Networking Hub to engage with others.
The Virtual Stage and Networking Hub can be used and embedded as stand-alone components or together to create an unstoppable duo and an unforgettable live experience.
