Case Study: University of Liverpool creates engaging virtual networking events with Kumospace

The University of Liverpool's Successful Virtual Networking Events

The University of Liverpool needed an engaging way to host networking for its 2,000+ person National Post-Doc Conference, moving the event online while still preserving the informal, interactive feel of in-person connection. To support this, the university turned to Kumospace and its Virtual Events product for a virtual conference and networking experience.

Kumospace provided a customizable virtual space with spatial audio, proximity chat, themed floors, sponsor areas, games, playlists, and virtual drinks, helping make networking feel organic and interactive. The result was a successful series of events with attendance ranging from a dozen to 40 people in the virtual spaces, plus reported savings in room hire and catering costs, and the flexibility to run more pre-conference networking sessions.
