Hybrid events are here to stay: A look at incorporating virtual and in-person components for corporate functions

From the Idaho Business Review

You’re on mute. Those three words became famous during the pandemic. By now though, most people are ready to stash them deep inside a drawer with the tattered pajama pants they wore during countless virtual meetings and conferences, week after week, for more than a year.

But wait. Don’t get rid of the pajama pants just yet! Now that more people are comfortable with virtual technologies, and as more companies allow people to work from home, our days of attending events virtually may not be coming to an  end.

Luckily, you may still be able to retire the phrase “you’re  on mute.” That’s because audio/visual (A/V) companies have a variety of ways to incorporate virtual attendance into any meeting or event — virtual offerings that go way beyond the boring, pandemic-era virtual meeting.
