Conference Content
Solid summary content is the first thing participants look for when they attend a successful conference. The most important tool you can give them is a timely, reliable summary that helps them do something with what they’ve learned.
Our writers can attend an entire conference or selected sessions and deliver the format you need—while sessions are under way, overnight, or within five to 10 days of your closing plenary.
News
Online news capsules and printed newsletters give participants a snapshot of key sessions and takeaways in a convenient, easy-to-read format.
Read more...They’re a great way to deliver online content that is tagged by theme or session track, or combine conference presentations with the rest of your professional development library. Onsite, an electronic or print newsletter helps participants refocus on the conference over morning coffee, so that they’re ready to roll when sessions begin.
Summaries
It’s our signature service: a conference summary that is more detailed than a PowerPoint, less detailed than verbatim video, and more useful than either.
Read more...A PDF or printed summary serves as a trip report for participants, a refresher for trainees, a wrap-up for funders, or a follow-up report for the decision-makers who funded the conference.
If you’re developing policy, consulting stakeholders, or gathering opinions on a new product or service, you’ll want a detailed enough summary to truly capture participants’ voices and views. We’ll help you pick the right level of detail without spending a dollar, peso, franc, or Euro more than necessary.
News tweets
You can say a lot in 140 characters. So can your participants. With more and more conferences welcoming Twitter correspondents onsite, you have to get your own message out as quickly—and as widely—as they do.
Read more...Onsite news tweets help you distribute an accurate, up-to-the-minute news stream while key conference sessions are in progress. They’re written in the tone and style of regular tweets, with one crucial difference: our writers function as independent reporters, so the only opinions they express are the ones that are expressed from the microphone.
As the conference organizer, you approve every word before we tweet it. After that, with a factual record in place, you can confidently let a thousand opinions flourish on social media.
Thematic reports and white papers
A short synopsis can capture takeaways and action items from a much longer conference. It just has to be built on the right themes, using speaker quotes and other live session content to reinforce your message.
Read more...Thematic reports and white papers can be bundled with other forms of content capture or produced as stand-alone publications. Themes and messaging can be drawn from an entire meeting, or from selected content in a specific track. Either way, we’ll work with you right after the conference to finalize the themes, then produce the report as soon as we have your instructions.
Combined text and video
You can combine news capsules summary text, and video on a single website, then let participants pick the format and level of detail that will meet their information needs.
Read more...If you want to stream live video while a session is in progress, we can combine the pictures and PowerPoint slides with session papers and abstracts, speaker biographies, news tweets, and social media—for the whole conference, or using a special session hashtag.
Afterwards, your on-demand conference content site can integrate news capsules within a couple of hours of the session, or full summaries within a few days. The mix of formats opens up a bunch of possibilities for distributing and charging for content: you can make all the sessions freely available, or limit access to your members or affiliates. Or you can treat the news capsules as public information, but charge a fee for the detailed summaries and video.
Your choice of video formats
Video is a fantastic medium for delivering conference content, but few participants will have time to sit through verbatim video of your conference sessions. Fortunately, there’s an alternative.
Read more...The Conference Publishers can help you capture live video onsite and integrate it with session summaries, news capsules, and Twitter traffic. Or we can produce polished, five- to 10-minute video segments that combine session quotes, speaker interviews, and still photography to tell a powerful story.
Either way, we’ll bring in the right team to capture the raw content you need and produce the final product.
You’ll never have to juggle multiple contractors or think about how to combine the different media on your website.
