How to engage attendees using smart spaces
The traditional meeting environments with stark lighting and cream walls are the thing of the past! Today we need spaces that are designed to provide interactive and engaging experiences for attendees.
- Personalisation: Smart spaces can offer personalised experiences to attendees based on their preferences and behavior. For example, attendees can use their mobile devices to customise their preferences and receive personalised recommendations on sessions, booths, and activities.
- Interactive displays: Interactive displays are an effective way to engage attendees in smart spaces. Attendees can interact with the displays by touch, gesture, or voice commands. Displays can provide information, entertainment, and interactive experiences such as games and quizzes.
- Augmented Reality (AR): AR can be used to enhance the attendee experience by overlaying digital information and objects onto the physical environment. AR can be used for wayfinding, product demonstrations, and interactive experiences.
- Internet of Things (IoT): IoT sensors can be used to gather data on attendee behavior and preferences. This data can be used to personalise experiences and optimize space utilization. For example, IoT sensors can detect when attendees enter and leave a room and adjust the lighting and temperature accordingly.
- Social media integration: Attendees can use social media to share their experiences in real-time. Smart spaces can integrate social media feeds to create a social wall that displays attendee posts and encourages engagement.
- Gamification: Gamification can be used to make smart spaces more engaging and interactive. Attendees can earn points, badges, and rewards for participating in activities, visiting booths, and attending sessions.
- Mobile apps: Mobile apps can be used to provide attendees with real-time information, personalised recommendations, and interactive experiences. Attendees can use mobile apps to navigate the space, schedule sessions, and connect with other attendees.
