Virtual reality has been one of the biggest technology developments of recent times, allowing people to experience things beyond their real-world physical surroundings. Naturally, this ability to fundamentally change a person’s experience has almost limitless scope when it comes to marketing.

Last week, something happened that changed the event world for ever. 200 events successfully used InGo’s attendee intelligence feature, called Network Notifications, to notify their attendees and exhibitors which of their friends and customers were coming to the event. This technology will change every aspect of event economics from why events sell-out, to whether exhibitors decide to exhibit at an event. For the first time in event history, attendees and exhibitors will be notified (90 days before event, then fortnightly afterwards) who they know at an event. If you understand human nature and the business of events, you understand the seismic ramifications of this.
