Events and event tech with Julius Solaris Part 2 : Episode 006

5 Oct, 2018

“When I talk about VR, I talk mostly about 360 degree live video, which I think is one of the most untapped opportunities for event professionals right now.”

“I think that smart badges need to become the standard. I think we’re missing on a huge opportunity when it gets to analyzing traffic and data.”

The new world of events is about Actionable data, better understanding of buyer behaviour, mid-course corrections on existing events and actionable insights to help us improve future ones; providing attendees with a much richer and more personalized experience.”

“I’m desperate about facial recognition (in events) in the sense that I don’t understand what is there to think about?”
