Certainly well connected

“Especially in times of a pandemic, it is particularly important for us as organizers to always know where our guests are and when - in order to ensure their safety,” says Freitag. Assigned seats in every panel and workshop, registration controls and networks with the highest security measures: anyone who held an event in 2020 had to face major challenges. Especially when the audience needs to be there and sit in front of the screens at the same time.

Trade fair stands, lectures and competitions in one app

The tailor-made platform from ONevents is the perfect solution to these challenges, as company founder and managing director Alexander Janda explains: “Anyone who goes to a specialist lecture at the symposium or attends a workshop scans the QR code on the entrance sign with their app. He is immediately connected to other participants – on site or digitally. Of course, in compliance with the highest data protection conditions.” The trade fair stands are also available in digital form on the platform as well as live in Alpbach. In a competition, those present live compete with the digital guests for the coveted coin. “The only thing that is not possible for the digital guests is the tried and tested Kneipp joint in the Alpbacher Mühlbach – at least not yet,” jokes online event technician Janda.
