With RingCentral Events, we can host thousands of attendees and hundreds of speakers joining simultaneously from all over the world–without compromising the quality or reliability of the experience. This events platform, more than any other we’ve used, helps us to carry out our mission to empower women in tech on a global scale.
Within our first year, our virtual events attracted thousands of registrants around the world, and we wanted to create large, interactive, multi-session experiences that truly engaged attendees. But our events platform really limited us to a simple webinar format, didn’t let us do much to engage audiences during those webinars, and couldn’t support the traffic we brought in. That’s why we quickly pivoted to RingCentral Events.
Our Women in Tech Global Conference is huge, running several days, with attendees from more than 150 countries, and featuring roughly 500 speakers and panelists. Now that we have RingCentral Events, we can fully recreate the depth and dynamism of these conferences online–with keynotes, breakout sessions, chats, expo booths, networking opportunities, one-on-one meetings, everything our sponsors and attendees need to have a great experience.
We’ve made our virtual career fairs and other job-related events much more productive–both for attendees and for our sponsoring employers like Oracle and GE Healthcare–by using the matchmaking and other networking features in RingCentral Events to connect candidates with the right employers for one-on-one video chats.
Integrating RingCentral Events into HubSpot lets us easily synchronize our event attendee data into our CRM. We can see profiles of our registrants and even where attendees went during an online event and how and where they participated. That’s extremely helpful, for example, when we want to create campaigns to persuade those attendees to become professional members of WomenTech Network.
RingCentral Events has helped us streamline and automate a lot of the event-prep and hosting work that we used to do manually. And I know we haven’t fully tapped into the platform’s capabilities yet. So, we’re always looking for more ways event workflows we can automate–with registration, speaker management, vendor management–and I know we’ll keep finding them in RingCentral Events.
