Hybrid events are an effective solution in Barcelona, taking a step forward in innovation and providing solutions for companies and the community.
The Mice sector has faced one of the biggest challenges of the last decade in 2020. Adapting the ways in which we relate and interact with others in our social and work life is no longer an option but an obligation due to global circumstances. Physical barriers are becoming increasingly blurred thanks to the contribution of online connectivity, whose platforms offer multiple options for human interaction, exchange of ideas and socialization.
Valkiria Hubspace
has taken advantage of the isolation and confinement time to come up with solutions to make the realization of events more and more effective and far-reaching, always thinking about the health and well-being of the entire community. This is how the use of the term “Hybrid Events” has been promoted, which although it is not a new concept, it fits like a glove considering that it has forever changed the paradigm of socialization in all environments.
What are Hybrid Events?
These are events that take place in a physical space, which attendees can attend in person and virtually. The support of technology is of vital importance in these spaces, since it broadens the spectrum of visibility of the event and facilitates new interactivity tools.
Conferences, concerts, presentations, shows and any type of event can be adapted to this modality and always reach the desired audience with innovative and attractive proposals.
Digital tools such as webinars, streams, or online trainings can be integrated to this type of events, although they are not necessarily hybrid events by themselves. If the audience is purely online, then this is a virtual event.

Budget-friendly solutions
When you think about the technological deployment or the use of tools to make a hybrid event, a secure streaming transmission, create a virtual set or any other requirement you consider to make an event, you could fall into the interpretation that you need astronomical budgets to achieve it. But nothing could be further from the truth: if you think about the ROI of a hybrid event, you look for ways to maximize the investment according to the possibility of reaching a wider audience and without the need to repeat the same event in multiple venues with the same content.
