Hello, this is Okawa from GP.

We’ve heard people talk about online events and hybrid events all over the place, but it’s hard to imagine what they’re really like until we actually attend one. 

GP is pushing for hybrid events, but to what extent and what can we do? Many of you might want to know specifically.

People have a hard time visualizing what they have not experienced.

In order to welcome the coming age of hybrid events and to allow as many people as possible to experience firsthand the possibilities of hybrid events, we have decided to hold a “hybrid event for the general public,” the “Hybrid Conference”, on March 25, 2021.

It is an online event for the general public, which means “you”, the person reading this article right now, can also attend!

This is the ideal Hybrid Event honorably presented by GP

This is the first time for GP to hold a hybrid event for the general public.

This is a unique opportunity for us to show you how dead serious GP is when it comes to hybrid events. We are currently working as a team to prepare for the event.

The event, titled “The Future of Hybrid Communication” will be held and we will have some of the industry’s leading experts as guests to share their perspectives on the future of online communication and online events. But this is by us, GP, it won’t be just an event to watch!

The Online Platform will be through “zoom”

This event will be using zoom for online participation.

It is not unusual to use zoom for online events, but since it is a familiar tool, many people may wonder, “What is an online event with zoom like?” 

This time, we will “dare” to use zoom so that you can actually experience an example of how far you can go with zoom! You can actually experience an example of what you can do with the platform.

Questions will be taken in real time during the event!

During the speakers’ presentations, questions from the audience are accepted. Questions gathered will be answered in the Q&A corner. You may be able to ask “your” questions to the leading experts in the industry and have them answered!

You can jump in too! Venue x Online Talk Session

One of the major advantages of a hybrid event is that it allows for interaction between the audience and online participants.

In order for you to experience this firsthand, we will have a talk session where the speakers at the venue and the zoom participants will talk to each other!

We hope you will join us for this real x online talk session, which can even seem closer than real-time questions.

Speakers are superb!

The speakers for this event are all people who have been at the forefront of the online and communication worlds and are people you want to hear at least once. The fact that you can hear them speak for free makes this a can’t-miss event!

Now, we’ll be introducing our guest speakers!
