About Sessions

Sessions on the stage the format options are:

  • Stage Session:
    • Have an unlimited number of attendees.
  • Break:
    • Breaks during a conference are essential for maintaining attendee engagement and productivity.
    • Add a description in the Break session, so the attendees know what to do during the break.  You can outline the conference schedule, including short breaks (10-15 minutes) and meals for longer events.

 

Sessions outside the stage, can have the format:

  • Live session | Standard (only presenters on camera, 5000 max limit)
    • Only the presenters can be on camera and speak.
    • provide live conferencing for up to 5,000 attendees.
  • Live session | Many-To-Many (first 50 on camera, 350 max limit)
    • Are designed for a more intimate gathering.
    • Anyone can be a presenter and be on camera (up to 50).
    • The first 50 attendees joining will be on camera. This doesn't mean that the camera will be on if they said to turn it off.
  • Pre-recorded session:
    • Unlike booths, pre-recorded sessions start at a specific time
    • Pre-recorded sessions are auto-played at the start time you set in the agenda
    • Users won't be able to rewind, or fast-forward. Once they are done, attendees can chat until the session end time.
    • You can use a YouTube link or upload an MP4. YouTube links can be livestreamed.

Within session:

  • An unlimited number of concurrent sessions are permitted.
  • Segment sessions by ticket types, e.g., create a 'Speaker Green Room' only visible to attendees who registered under a “speaker” ticket type.
    • Speakers can use the Green Room to get set up and check to make sure everything is working before sending to the main stage or session.
  • Sessions can be live or pre-recorded.
  • No backstage functionality is available for non-stage sessions.
  • Utilize breakout rooms for structured networking for attendees.
  • The number of presenters changes the maximum number of viewers.
