Duffy and Chan will spotlight the growing role of AR and experience mapping in the virtual and hybrid event sector. Viewers can tune in to see the interview through the link here.

The Event Hustler Show is a video podcast hosted by the CEO of techsytalk and Liz King Events, Liz King Caruso. The Podcast features interviews with top talent from independent event management and technology companies who delve into innovations, trends and significant shifts within the events industry. The podcast reaches key decision makers for events across the globe, making it a valued resource within the event management community.

Duffy and Chan were invited to speak on the podcast following Duffy’s presentation earlier this month at techsytalk Global. The event had an international audience of more than 1,300 attendees from the corporate, association and independent event planning industries, to whom Duffy shared the success of virtual event experiences with AR. This presentation with The Event Hustler Show is one of a few upcoming projects that NexTech and Techsytalk are teaming up on to provide educational resources on the capabilities of NexTech’s Experience Platform to the international event community.

This interview will go beyond Duffy’s initial presentation, taking a deeper look at what experience design is and how pivoting to virtual and hybrid events backed by AR can help the industry transform its business and achieve success. The presentation will walk viewers through the role AR is taking in the virtual and hybrid event environment as we continue to navigate closures from the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, Duffy and Chan will highlight innovative applications that companies are using AR for and the range of clients that are adopting these techniques including retail, media, higher education, healthcare, agriculture and more.

“AR is an incredible story-telling and experience marketing tool. Many event organizers come to us with questions about AR, what it can do for them and how to leverage it in virtual and hybrid events. Through this interview with The Event Hustler Show, we hope to highlight new ways that events, large and small, can utilize AR as a tool to create “Get out of your seat” moments and unique experiences,” said Vivian Chan, Chief Channel Officer of NexTech. “Virtual and hybrid events with AR have transformed the business and have provided a successful solution to hosting events during COVID-19. Event organizers need to create interactive experiences or risk losing the interest of their audience, whether it’s in the form of a virtual or hybrid event.”

“I’m excited to reconnect with Liz King Caruso and continue the conversation about how AR continues to embed itself within the event management industry. Techsytalk and the Event Hustler Show hold the ear of key decision makers in the events sector, many of whom have to prepare for the unknown that is 2021. The emotional connection people make with brands through sight, sound and motion are undeniable. We’ve seen it with television and video. But as technology continues to advance, customer experiences will be tied to immersing the consumer with the brand experience,” said Paul Duffy, President of NexTech AR, “Virtual and hybrid events are the future and we’ve created a portfolio of AR technologies with proven performance in boosting attendance, engagement and creating customized experiences. AR is a solution on how to design, elevate and create WOW moments within the context of an event. These experiences have been able to increase ROI of up to 140% for event customers under the NexTech brand portfolio.”
