Event App

At this year’s event, an Event App was reintroduced in response to feedback from exhibitors, partners, and attendees at the Singapore 2023 event.

Following extensive research, competitive quotes, and peer recommendations, CrowdComms was selected as the App provider. The App enabled attendees to browse the agenda, customise their schedules, access floor plans, and connect with peers. Features like live polling boosted engagement during sessions, and the ability to upload supporting materials to the App supported the event’s commitment to being paperless.
