Humans are social animals. We thrive on connecting with each other. The past 30 years have shown us how new forms of communication can enhance our life, amplify our experiences and expose us to new ideas and new people. Yet when it comes to events, not much has changed. We fly halfway around the world to sit in a room with hundreds of others, staring at a screen for 10 hours as speakers present their slides.
-p-1080.jpeg)
When the pandemic hit, we realized that running virtual events can deliver incredible benefits - more participants, more (diverse) speakers, more interactions and less impact on the planet. We also learned that screens cannot replace human interaction. As we look beyond social distancing, we believe that there’s a better way to run events, town halls, conferences, product launches and everything in between.
Imagine a world where you can hold an intimate gathering of 10 people, or scale to a crowd of 100,000. Imagine a world where the most interesting speakers can join your event, without leaving their home. Imagine a world where in-person events are designed as peak experiences. That’s the future we are bringing you, today.
We are an award-winning group of passionate inventors, storytellers, developers, designers and producers who thrive on challenging the status quo in pursuit of our mission to improve people’s lives through the power of extraordinary experiences.
Transport your speakers into gorgeous virtual spaces that elevate your brand and create an immersive experience.
