The switch to online and hybrid events has come with challenges and advantages. Within this model, conference organisers can set up a studio at nearly any given location.

Green screen production for online events is an emerging trend due to the technique’s ability to create higher engagement levels.
Enhancing Delegate Engagement In Online Events
The events industry is still grappling with the uncertainty that led to mass cancellations and postponements of in-person events. Moving forward into 2021 and beyond, virtual meetings like conferences and trade shows will either take place in fully virtual environments or as hybrid events. Therefore, conference organisers must be ready to handle new challenges, as well as develop new strategies to cope with existing ones.
