Case Study: Skills Consulting Group achieves a resilient, globally accessible virtual summit with 6Connex

Skills Consulting Group overcomes challenging times with their virtual summit

Skills Consulting Group (SCG), organiser of the long-running New Zealand Vocational Education and Training Research Forum (NZVETRF), faced the challenge of delivering its largest annual forum amid COVID-19 lockdowns and regulatory change. To avoid disruption and maintain a user-friendly, visually engaging experience, SCG chose the 6Connex virtual event platform (6Connex’s virtual and hybrid event solutions) to run the 2021 forum online.

6Connex delivered a cloud-based, immersive virtual environment with 3-D room layouts, networking/chat and an on-platform reference library, enabling hundreds of attendees to gather safely online. The event reached guests from 14 countries, protected the forum from last-minute lockdown cancellations, gave sponsors certainty, and generated strong attendee satisfaction — reinforcing SCG’s position as a leader in virtual events and validating 6Connex’s platform for international, resilient conferencing.
