3. www.hexafair.com MYTH 01 The virtual component of a hybrid summit is just a live stream ❑ Hybrid events, being the fusion of live and virtual worlds, are often misinterpreted by myths. One such noted illusion is recording & live streaming events is a core activity of the hybrid summit model. ❑ But there is an underlying differentiating factor between a live stream and a hybrid summit. Hybrid events can create engagement at a deeper level which encourages the audience to participate more in the event. Both in-person and virtual attendees can treasure the experience simultaneously.

4. www.hexafair.com MYTH 02 The virtual expansion will badly impact your in-person audience participation ❑ More and more people are choosing to take their events online instead of in person. The idea of not having to travel or finding a place to stay seems like the perfect solution for many, but this might hurt physical attendance is another myth in the air. ❑ The hybrid events platform models are designed to encourage in-person event audience to revisit virtual fairs and vice versa.

5. www.hexafair.com MYTH 03 You can use the same strategies to engage both live & virtual audiences ❑ In the hybrid model, one mistake you must avoid making is treating live audience and virtual participants alike. Both models are different and demand a unique approach to engagement. ❑ Suppose you are presenting at a live conference; a good lecture with slideshows & whiteboard illustrations on-stage is enough to engage your audience. And on the web, you can provide high-quality visuals for engagement.

6. www.hexafair.com MYTH 04 You cannot create a personal experience for the virtual audience ❑ On a hybrid events platform, special personalized tools can be in-built & integrated to encourage virtual interactions. Few such tools are virtual roundtable discussions, break out rooms, fireside chats, Q&As that encourage equal live and virtual participation, etc. ❑ Create one video to show your audience, 1) What happens in the backend? 2) Your way of hybrid summit planning 3) What goes into the making of the future of meetings and events - the hybrid events?

7. www.hexafair.com MYTH 05 Hybrid events are hard to design and achieve ❑ Apart from creating the best engagement, maintaining the right balance between the live and virtual audience is essential. ❑ Content also must be planned & executed differently for both audiences. ❑ On the whole - exhibitors & hybrid events platform partners want to deliver a single seamless experience to the audience while simultaneously working on two separate events
