It has been close to 2 months since the majority of people across countries are confined to their homes during the world crisis. In the corporate realm,  experts and industry leaders did not anticipate the drop of businesses during this challenging time in the first quarter of the new decade.

 

Whilst the impact of this crisis varies across industries, it demonstrates well, how businesses persevere by being resilient to a swift adoption of operational efficacy. Thanks to the pandemic, we are able to witness and learn from leading organizations’ new innovative approaches and strategies to seek opportunities in re-defining their organization. 

 

Particularly in the face-to-face business, Management Events, among many other companies is certainly affected. There were countless efforts shown by the team in adapting new operation practices to complement the new norm. In a short period of time, we were able to create a legacy by reinforcing change. Here is how we navigate our business life in times of crisis.

 

 

Forced To Innovate

It is a new standard of operational practices to work remotely to resume the revenue stream which is applied globally. Though this trend is considered a massive shift, we are diligent in achieving a common goal together as a team. Having international offices across Europe and Asia, we are forced to innovate and embrace the future of work trends.

 

The essence of maintaining collaborative conduct while working remotely is by having strong communication. Hence, it is a routine to have video calls every week among team members to deliver informed decisions while sustaining face-to-face human interaction. 

 

Though challenges arise with limited budgets in seeking innovative approaches to cater to the new market behavior, we have proved to be agile and consistent in creating business opportunities for our partners. It is based on daily virtual meetings and strong relationships with multiple departments and partners in gaining insights to attain a mutual interest. 

 

With continuous perseverance, we managed to innovate new ideas to accommodate businesses that require business networking. 

 

 

Embrace The New

It is expected that businesses would take time to recover financially. But it is not the last string for them to survive in the market, as most business leaders have already adapted to the new normal and how it affects their organizations. 

 

To be part of the thriving businesses during this crisis, we have never stopped exploring new opportunities. The current situation has disclosed that businesses are prompt to higher needs of solutions to their challenges in running their daily business activities. Particularly with the lack of face-to-face interactions, it is vital to address how the new normal could limit the strategies in expanding their revenue. 

 

As an international business matchmaking service provider, this could not be overlooked. We are agile in adapting our services to reflect on the new necessities in businesses.

 

We create an evolution in embracing the new while being parallel to business objectives – by transforming to be completely digital. With positive actions taken during adversities, we managed to re-start our fresh and improved modus operandi only within 3weeks!

 

 

The New Normal: Virtual Events

We accelerate promptly to online platforms and thrive during the crisis. This motivates them to bring the same powerful business networking solutions to other businesses, by providing a similar matchmaking formula through the new Beyond Tech events!

 

It serves as the same platform to provide networking solutions to businesses, connect with like-minded peers, and share insights with thought leaders – but virtually.

 

We launched our virtual events proudly with Beyond Tech Innovation and Product Development and Beyond Tech CIO last week by utilizing the latest technology and data. We are using Brella, Microsoft Teams, and Outlook to ensure the entire experience as seamless as possible.

 

Feedback of the virtual events were mainly positive with comments such as “Exceeded my expectations for a virtual event” and “Speakers were well prepared and well presented.” Participants also praised the group discussions, forums, and one-to-one meetings with favorable mentions of the yoga break.

 

See what else our participants had to say about the event:

 

I actually like the idea of carrying out the event despite of pandemic. I would have enjoyed face-to-face events, but indeed this proved that virtual events are possible

Thank you for the wonderful virtual event! The day was successful, which includes both presentations and also the group discussions via Teams. Also, the lunch provided to our home was a nice touch

 

The team in Management Events is excited to embark on this new journey and it is a relief to take a huge leap in this transformation. Businesses are equally overwhelmed and inspired to attend our upcoming digital events with one of them being sold out!

 

Management Events is proud to launch its new series of virtual events that cater to the businesses that want the same matchmaking and industry insights events that they expect from us. Reach out to us on how you can be part of our new virtual events or check here for updates on event listings.
