BlueJeansExpo

Today we introduced BlueJeans Expo, an immersive virtual environment for enterprise event collaboration, education, engagement, and inspiration that is scheduled for general availability later this year.

I'm really excited about this new product, and here's why—BlueJeans Expo will help organizations easily deliver fully customizable virtual experiences pre-, during and post-events.

With Expo, we're combining live and on-demand video, event management and content hosting into one powerful yet easy to manage platform to allow customers to extend their reach beyond the trade show floor. It's all about building a community. 

According to the IDC Market Analysis Perspective: Worldwide Collaboration Applications, 2022, “Companies with branded communities perform 13% better in virtual events.” By bringing multi-session, multi-day virtual events to life in a community environment with BlueJeans Expo, event hosts can deliver on the promise of interactivity and engagement that extends long after the event is over.  

With the fully customizable nature of BlueJeans Expo, event hosts have the ability to transform their virtual event site into a home base for attendees and sponsors to stay up to date and remain connected with the community. This means the event home page and content hubs can be easily transformed to support an ongoing engagement cadence that is powered by Expo’s configurable messaging capabilities.  

Furthermore, BlueJeans Expo features a comprehensive event lifecycle framework to power pre-, during, and post-event workflows: Easy-to-use attendee registration and management, plug-and-play session templates, drag and drop content hubs, and in-depth event reporting, are just some of the tools available to event moderators for designing and delivering world class virtual events. 

To help drive meaningful connections during the event itself, BlueJeans Expo offers the ability to deliver high-quality networking opportunities with an intuitive directory that supports simple profile creation, quick filtering, and role-based chat to encourage participation, yet limit unwanted outreach. It also enables “in-booth” notifications to encourage event participants to engage with sponsors who are staffing virtual exhibits.
