COVID-19 has undoubtedly changed the way we work, travel, and live. But it has also transformed the way we meet. Attendance is capped, room setups are more spread out to accommodate social distancing, and F&B options are different and limited. Hybrid events are also taking center stage, with a smaller number of in-person attendees and a virtual component broadcasted to a virtual audience. This shift, which features the prominent use of technology solutions like room diagramming, is a trend that is here to stay.
In this blog post, we go into greater detail on room diagramming and interactive floor plans. We explore how these tools can create safer meetings, as well as how hotels can use technology to conduct safer site tours. We hear from Gino Marasco, Director of Sales and Marketing at Wyndham Orlando, and we also interview Caitlin Nicolson of Cvent Event Diagramming to get her perspective on how hotels can revamp their sales and adapt to the new environment of meetings and events.
