Planning a Virtual Holiday Party? These high-profile entertainment options need to be atop your list.

Okay so face it, these Zoom and WebEx meetings are here to stay (and the latest Cvent Connect poll shows that Hybrid events will be the big thing at 2021 meetings). But as we all sit at desks facing computer screens, entertainment—whether it be comedy, magic, juggling, mentalism, or an amazing impressionist—somehow makes it all worthwhile.
Meeting Professionals Ask: The 3 different formats for a Virtual Keynote Speech.

This afternoon, famed mountain climber Alex Honnold is pre-recording a 45-minute speech for a group of printing industry retailers. Why Alex Honnold? He’s the Academy Award-winning “Free Solo” climber who took on Yosemite’s El Capitan with absolutely no ropes or ties. To address a group of sales people who think they are in the midst of Adversity, Alex talks about the preparation, drive, passion, focus, and delivery that it took to master this one-of-a-kind adverse experience. But the format of this virtual keynote speech by Alex Honnold is what interests meeting professionals today—as there is certainly more than one option when it comes to sharing a virtual story with a viewing audience of attendees.
