W elcome to Today

Already in 2012 one seventh of the world
population has a facebook user profile
5
500,000 apps for countless
functions turn the
smartphone and tablets into a
Digital Swiss Army Knife
6
Separated from analogue, tangible level
A hybrid of the real and the virtual
Hybrid instruments, hybrid media, hybrid workplaces, hybrid
social structures
Requires whole new thinking and mindset
Hybrid scope: communication, marketing, events
Hybrid Conditions
Extinction of Traditional Events?
Are traditional events endangered by the
virtual world?
Are they even threatened by extinction?
Or do hybrid events open up a whole new
understanding of live communication?
- with an unprecedented depth and
intensity when it comes to relationships
between companies and target groups?

Defining Hybrid
“Traditional”
Virtual extension of a real event
Allowing clients who cannot participate in the actual event a
chance participate in its virtual counterpart
“New”
Hybrid Events = Live + MoSoLo
Interlink live-marketing with mobile applications, social
media applications and location-based services

Hybrid Boosting
10
Hybrid Events: high amount of contacts with
maximum contact intensity
Hybrid Boosting
Clients do not only buy, they create,
share, recommend, support or
criticize companies, products or services in
the virtual world.
They do not only look for information, but
also for fun, contact and exchange with
one another
Hybrid boosting targets the absolute
networkability of incidents,
experiences, content and social relations.

ROI

Return on Insight
Hybrid event communication leaves traces in the virtual space,
which can be followed up, made visible and measurable
quantitatively and qualitatively
Return on Investment
- “Caches” cash in the mid to long term
- Hybrid event communication can create additional intensity and
coverage
- Established hybrid event strategies can be built on, cultivated and
developed further, and thus contribute to lowering the overall
investment for live-marketing
- Apps contribute to a much higher degree of learning and knowledge
than conventional, mere physical events without virtual elements

"It’s not who attends
your event, it’s who
participates"

Meet Smarter
Designed with the dual objective of providing delegates with a first-hand
experience of a hybrid event while showcasing Killarney as the perfect
host destination, MeetSmarter took place in late June with 100 attendees
Live stream of the business sessions was broadcast to 400 additional
delegates globally.
A staggering 124,000 twitter impressions were achieved.
Edited recordings of the business sessions have been available on
meetsmarter.com and are currently being accessed 24/7 by people all over
the world
Google Analytics lists participants from 57 distinct countries including
North and South America, all over the European continent, China, India
and Australia.
Hybrid technology creates a significantly wider audience for the meeting
content in terms of geographical and chronological reach so that
magic lives on.

International Conference on Emergency Medicine - June 2012
MCI was official organiser of the 14th edition of ICEM from
27-30 June 2012
Social media mandate inclusive
“Within this short time … I have had access to absolutely current
clinical information and challenging view points on practice. This
has been real time and dynamic, and has also allowed the
potential for interaction … following this hashtag has provided me
with plenty of information and allows me access to current
thinking in Emergency Medicine. It has also provided me with
links to people, studies, place and keeps me inspired about
continual learning …the only thing that would be better would
be being there”
Dr. David Corbet
