Virtual Event Platforms
Virtual event platforms are software solutions that enable the hosting, management, and participation in events—such as conferences, webinars, trade shows, and meetings—entirely online. They provide features like live streaming, interactive sessions, networking tools, and analytics to replicate or enhance in-person experiences in a digital environment. These platforms are essential for remote collaboration, global outreach, and hybrid event models.
Developers should learn and use virtual event platforms when building or integrating event management systems, especially for applications requiring real-time communication, scalable audience engagement, or hybrid event support. Specific use cases include creating custom webinar tools, integrating with CRM systems for lead tracking, or developing interactive features like polls and Q&A for educational or corporate events.
