Case Study: Academy of International Business delivers a high-engagement virtual conference with EventsAir

How AIB created a valuable virtual conference for its members to overcome travel restrictions and lockdowns

The Academy of International Business (AIB) faced the challenge of rapidly transitioning its crucial annual conference to a virtual format due to Covid-19 travel restrictions. With only two months to prepare, they needed a platform that could replicate the high-touch, networking-focused nature of their physical event. They turned to EventsAir and its OnAIR virtual event solution to meet this urgent need.

EventsAir implemented its OnAIR platform, which offered an intuitive interface and a suite of features like the Meeting Hub for one-on-one video conferencing and social networking groups. The vendor's "can-do" attitude was critical, as they fast-tracked new features to accommodate AIB's specific requirements. The result was a highly successful event with 1,255 attendees, the second-highest attendance in AIB's history, which received overwhelmingly positive feedback for making delegates feel truly connected.
