Case Study: HACSA (The Heritage and Cultural Society of Africa) reconnects the global African diaspora through a deeply interactive virtual summit with Airmeet

HACSA reconnects people of African descent back to their roots through its deeply interactive virtual summit, fueled by Airmeet

HACSA (The Heritage and Cultural Society of Africa) needed to move its annual in-person Sankofa Summit online after 2019 to reconnect people of African descent worldwide while preserving sponsor value, seamless technical delivery, easy navigation for diverse attendees, and effective networking. For the HACSA Sankofa Summit 2021, HACSA selected the Airmeet platform to host a multi-session virtual summit with 8 keynote speakers, panel discussions, exhibitions, films, music and virtual heritage tours.

Airmeet delivered sponsor booths and detailed analytics, queued high-quality pre-recorded video playback to avoid presenter technical failures, and a user-friendly interface with Speed Networking and Social Lounge features. As a result, HACSA reported strong attendee engagement, demonstrable sponsor interactions via Airmeet’s analytics reports, and enough confidence to take a yearly Airmeet subscription for monthly webinars and future hybrid events — validating Airmeet’s ability to improve sponsor ROI and event reliability.
