Agora Launches Virtual Conference RTE2020 to Talk Real-Time Engagement
Agora teams up with virtual event platform Run The World to host RTE2020 and unite leading global voices as worldwide streaming adoption skyrockets
Agora is partnering with its very own customer, virtual event platform Run The World, to produce an immersive, deeply engaging experience throughout two days of speaking sessions, panels and more. Attendees can register free of charge now at rte2020.agora.io, and they will receive an access link and log-in to create a profile and freely explore the conference. RTE2020 will be hosted on Run The World's website and mobile app.
"RTE2020 is a milestone opportunity for innovators to connect and collaborate on the future of Real-Time Engagement at a time when adoption of it has been urgent," said
In addition to programming featuring leading experts, such as Q&As and AMAs, RTE2020 will feature interactive elements including:
- Virtual Networking: Attendees can network at will by creating a profile and messaging other attendees through the event's mobile app, as well as participate in casual one-on-one "cocktail hour" experiences where they'll be matched with new attendees every five minutes.
- Interactive Polling: Right in the middle of a speech, AMA or panel, speakers can create and distribute a quick poll in real-time. Participants can see other attendees who chose the same answer as them and use the poll as a discussion point to connect.
- Personalized "Groupfie": Each attendee will receive a fun, personalized "groupfie" photo, modeled after a selfie, with speakers and other attendees to share on social media.
"Unlike one-way webinars or traditional video conferencing, our Run The World platform enables attendees to meet speakers and socialize with each other," said
Agora will release RTE2020 speakers, a program schedule and more details closer to the event in October. Please visit rte2020.agora.io to learn more or submit to the call for papers.
