About the Event<\/b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

Wendy Chou, Founder & CEO at Dealmakers, spoke about the company\u2019s first-time experience on Airmeet. She said, \u201cWe produce content and bring people together for both formal and informal networking opportunities. Before the pandemic, it was primarily in-person. We work very in a few niche industries like intellectual property and litigation funding\/ finance.<\/p>

Whether the event is in-person or virtual, we provide highly curated offerings and experiences to the executives. For example, our in-person event will have a top-notch venue, and we will invite only the movers and shakers of the industry. We deliver high-quality content, and the other big aspect of our meetings is facilitating one-on-one business deal-making opportunities.\u00a0<\/p>

When the pandemic had just hit, it was pretty difficult to run virtual meet-ups because we were restricted to Google Meet and Zoom, which had limited tools.\u00a0<\/p>

Then, a huge explosion of webinar platforms took place, and we did a lot of due diligence to find the right platform for us.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Challenge 1: Providing one-on-one virtual meet-up opportunities, just like in physical events, to enable productive connections\n<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Wendy mentioned, \u201cDuring in-person events, our main venue is a panel discussion room, and the rest of the space is dedicated to one-on-one meetings. We want our audience to have productive discussions inside and outside of the panel discussion<\/a> room. We allow them to have official partnership discussions and get deals done on-site. Post pandemic, we wanted to be able to carry these things forward, in the virtual setting – high quality webinars accompanied by virtual meet-ups.\u201d<\/p>
