Arinex digital team celebrates

THE Digital Conference Organising (DCO) team at Arinex is today commemorating a milestone, after a successful busy first year in operation.

Over the last 12 months the DCO team has produced 29 virtual events, attracting thousands of attendees across the globe.

Arinex said the online gatherings had also led to almost 60,000 sponsor interactions and the collection of 2,271,257 data points “allowing clients to make instant, informed decisions around their events”.

The DCO team was officially established a year ago today, coinciding with the “Turn of Events: Bringing Business Events Back” national hub and spoke event (BEN 08 Sep 2020) which was held simultaneously across six locations and live streamed globally.

Other major virtual events managed by the Arinex DCO operation include the International Neurotrauma Symposium, the 23rd International Congress on the Education of the Deaf, and this month’s Concrete Institute of Australia National Conference.

Arinex CEO Nicole Walker said the data gathered helped demonstrate ROI for sponsors and exhibitors, with insights provided to clients and sponsors to help them boost engagement opportunities.

“The birth of the DCO was introduced as a new initiative due to the pandemic, but will see continued growth and an ongoing necessity in the events sector,” she said.

“It is fast becoming an industry-recognised service, given the greater need for virtual events and technology, as well as the specialised skills required to ensure event results are exceeded”.
