An Event App from Webex Events is a digital space where in-person attendees can find information about your event, such as where sessions and exhibitors are located in the venue and details about speakers and sponsors. For virtual attendees, the Event App is your event's virtual venue where people watch live streams, network with each other, and interact with your Event App content.

With an Event App from Webex Events, you can provide a seamless and engaging digital experience while fostering sponsorship opportunities, brand loyalty, attendee networking, and more!

An Event App puts your event's live schedule at attendees' fingertips, plus many features designed to inform, direct, engage, and delight. With the Agenda feature, create a rich, detailed schedule of your event with live or pre-recorded video, chat, Q&A, polling, and custom embedded content in each Session. Attendees can add Sessions to build their own personal agenda, take notes, keep track of one-on-one meetings with their connections, and even export their agenda to their phone calendar.

The interactive and dynamic Maps feature makes it easy for your attendees to get where they need to go. Link Sessions, sponsors, speakers, exhibitors, and other items to locations for easy reference and increased exposure.

In addition to these features, you can attach documents and videos to Sessions, speakers, sponsors, and more. Advanced search features mean that users can find the information they need, when they need it.
