hybrid events reimagined

By allowing delegates to join in person or online, hybrid conferences offer the best of both worlds. The hybrid format expands your range and widens your reach, allowing you to bring people together without putting undue pressure on their schedule, their budget or the environment.

Technology is key to this, of course, and that’s where our expertise in platforms, livestreaming and audiovisual systems comes into its own. We’ll work with you to ensure that the virtual and physical experiences blend together seamlessly, so that all participants feel that they’re right there in the room – whether that’s in the main plenary discussions or the smaller breakout sessions.

We can also diversify your delegates’ day by drawing on our expertise in team-building and entertainment, giving your guests the opportunity to network and enjoy each other’s company whether they’re face to face or continents apart.

And we’ll synchronise the delivery of snack packs, swag bags and post-session refreshments so that everyone can unwind in the same way at the same time.

Client Kudos

The Lego Serious play event was a great hit with all of our Scotframe participants. Such a great way to get everyone involved and really work as a team.

Scotframe

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.

University of Edinburgh

Thank you to Mike, Ross and Sandy from Maximillion for the team building in the afternoon, murder mystery that evening, Belbin Team Roles next morning, a fantastic team building session in the afternoon and, finally, a great barbecue that evening provided by Norton House. Although some of us were a bit slow of the mark the second day, the same positive attitude and enthusiasm from day one prevailed and I think we all got something out of it. It was clear to me that everyone was communicating and working together better by the end of the afternoon.

Working with Maximillion has been an absolute pleasure and a transformative experience for our organisation. Over the course of our 5-year collaboration they have expertly delivered a range of online and in-person events for us, including large-scale conferences and stand builds, internal staff gatherings, and engaging team away days. Their attention to detail, creativity, and seamless execution were evident in every event they organised for us. Whether managing the logistics of a high-profile conference or crafting memorable team-building experiences during away days, their professionalism and dedication shone through.

Vicki Sharpe, Head of Marketing

We thought the event was organised and ran extremely well. All of our staff had a fantastic time, great fun! Would recommend Maximillion.

Meraki Talent

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

University of Edinburgh

Lee Hamill, Director of Finance

I just wanted to say thank you so much to you and your team for organising a truly memorable Christmas party for the JAA clan. We had a fabulous time and the activities and events you suggested really hit the spot in terms of being accessible, entertaining and fun. I would highly recommend you all for any corporate event in Scotland!

JAA

We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for the fantastic murder mystery and DJ services the Maximillion team provided at our recent Renewables UK Seminar at Cameron House Hotel. It was an evening filled with excitement and entertainment, and Maximillion played a pivotal role in making it a memorable experience for all of us.

TotalEnergies

Your team on the night for installation were on time, super efficient and gave clear guidance on usage of the games and when I called to say we’d finished early – returned quickly and dismantled with the same efficiency.

Natwest

I received emails from the participants saying how much they enjoyed the event. Our HR manager stated he would use Maximillion again. Many thanks for all your effort.

What is a hybrid conference?

A hybrid conference is a type of event that combines in-person and virtual components. Participants can choose to attend either in person at a physical location or remotely via a virtual platform.

How does a hybrid conference work?

A hybrid conference typically involves:

  • In-person sessions: Attendees gather at a physical venue for workshops, keynote speeches, or networking events.
  • Virtual components: Remote participants can join the conference through a virtual platform, allowing them to watch live streams, participate in online discussions, and network with other attendees.
  • Interactive elements: Hybrid conferences often incorporate interactive features like live Q&A sessions, polls, and breakout rooms to engage both in-person and virtual attendees.

To make a hybrid conference successful, you’ll need to incorporate AV elements. Check out our Conference Production page for more informaton on conference AV, or talk to our team today to discuss options!

How do you host a hybrid conference?

Hosting a hybrid conference requires careful planning and execution. Here are some key steps:

  • Choose a suitable venue: Select a physical location that can accommodate both in-person attendees and the necessary technology for virtual participation.
  • Select a virtual platform: Choose a reliable platform that offers features like live streaming, video conferencing, and chat functionality.
  • Develop a hybrid agenda: Create a schedule that balances in-person and virtual events, ensuring a seamless experience for all participants.
  • Promote the conference: Reach out to potential attendees through various channels, including social media, email marketing, and industry publications.
  • Provide technical support: Ensure that there is adequate technical support available for both in-person and virtual
  • participants.Evaluate the conference: Gather feedback from attendees to improve future hybrid events.
