Case Study: Air Transport Research Society achieves a seamless virtual conference experience with Whova

ATRS achieves 90% app adoption with Whova

The Air Transport Research Society (ATRS), hosting its 24th annual world conference via UNSW Aviation, needed to move its large international academic event online for the first time. Their challenges included connecting a global audience from 39 countries, managing over 300 concurrent sessions, centralizing communications, and ensuring a secure and reliable platform. They partnered with Whova and its virtual event platform to address these concerns.

Whova provided an all-in-one solution featuring session tracks for the extensive agenda, virtual meet-ups and a Community Board for networking, and reliable live and recorded sessions. The platform's matchmaking tool facilitated over 200 connections. The event saw a 90% app adoption rate, with 85% of attendees expressing they "love Whova." Organizers reported no major technical issues, successfully centralizing communication and allowing session access for six months post-event.
