Live and direct from Canada, Jeff Campbell, author of two partnerships playbooks and founder of Incentli, a company committed to improving attendee motivation and engagement, fell into event industry from the e-Learning vertical.
Jeff’s background in education fostered his interest in online learner engagement and gamification. So much so, he started Incentli and built an integration with learning management systems (LMS). Ultimately, Campbell’s/Incentli’s goal is to make partnerships as easy as they can be, making him a perfect fit with this episode.
Across some 45 minutes of chat, host/Event Tech Live co-founder, Adam Parry, and Jeff Campbell dig down into the integration equation, with the equally successful and ‘agnostic’ Incentli a perfect case in point.
A clued-up collaboration – typical of the Event Tech Talks series - they talk imposter syndrome, tech stacks, connecting LMS to ecommerce platforms, driving attendee stickiness through partnerships and the energy from collaboration.
From the difference between online learning and virtual events, timeframes and a useful burger parallel – the calendar year is bottom of the bun, events ‘the pickle’ – right through to what integration actually means, it’s all here.

‘Designed in Belgrade. Made remotely worldwide’, Beams is the business, launched in 2020, behind its eponymous ‘virtual event engine with a one-window technology’.
In this episode, recorded the day registration opened for Event Tech Live 2022, topically, host Adam Parry talks to Yana Kuodis, co-founder and head of business development at Beams, who can trace her history in events back as far school, and Nadya Kuzmenko, head of marketing, whose experience from other fields left her with a commitment to carry the big ideas.
Born of, and during, the pandemic, Beams’ focus is on strengthening the hand of virtual events, pushing on to unleash still untapped potential and revenue.
Across a fascinating 45 minutes, the conversation covers how it feels to be encouraging people to deliver digital events while the in-person option is where the want is. And the argument between ‘how the virtual model was thrust on a population typically not interested, invested or truly understanding the concept’ and the extraordinary amount of time huge numbers working at home spend, interacting, learning, buying and selling online.
There’s more too of course…

The eighth episode of Event Tech Talk Show is all about data, and in Joe Colangelo host Adam Parry has found another perfect sparring partner.
Joe is co-founder and CEO of Bear Analytics, a firm dedicated to translating data into actionable intelligence for event producers, trade associations and professional societies.
Putting questions both as data the infatuated co-founder of Event Tech Live and as a very interested independent other, Adam gets the back story; how Jo Colangelo started with a biotech trade organisation, going on to work with its events team where he identified a “pretty big” deficiency on the data side. And how he and partner Eric Misic
founded Bear in the summer of 2013 as a result.
Adam and Joe discuss the impact of the Covid pandemic, how close it came to suffocating the business, and the subsequent launch of Bear IQ.
They talk about the burgeoning value of data and how to get the most out of it, which business operations benefit the most from centralised, clean, consolidated data. They look at tech stacks, Bear’s unique place in the puzzle, and much, much more.

Evan highlights the value in incorporating virtual and hybrid models post-pandemic, connectivity – properly mixing in-person with virtual attendees – latest lead generation/lead capture solutions, getting better quality information, more substance, via Voiceform rather than asking people to fill a form out, and much, much more.

Event Tech Talk Show Season 2, Episode 5 sees host Adam Parry talking shop with Ben Axtell and Gus Perret – co-founders of GoRemote.
In March 2020 – as events businesses around the world were postponing, cancelling, rethinking their everything in light of the then encroaching pandemic shadow. Tech took the calls but there was, naturally enough, some oversight.
Virtual/hybrid event specialist Ben, speaking from Annecy in the south east of France, and show caller/AV man Gus, around the corner in Thônex, do the detail on GoRemote, which focused on supporting speakers as they found their feet across the digital platform through lockdowns, making sure they were fully briefed and confident before stepping on the virtual stage.

We’ve been forced to recreate events into hybrid events more than ever in the last two years but it won’t become a best practice for the events industry.
We thought we were “creating” hybrid events to face a global pandemic, but in retrospect, we were just adapting events to our new reality. And we might have just missed the point of it.
