Open Forum

Hi everyone, 

I am trying to find a way to engage our speakers with attendees while onsite. There's NEVER enough time for Q&A in the session so I was wondering if there was a way to allow attendees to send speakers questions for a specific session (we often have speakers presenting more than one) and for them to answer. Thought it might be a forum type set up, but I've not figured out if it's possible and how to get it set up. Any help or suggestions/success stories would be very welcome! 

Thanks in advance! 

Chris

Hi Chris,

You could extend the time period for questions to be submitted for the session(s) by setting a custom Q&A time frame for the sessions and allow attendees to continue submitting their questions via Q&A. Then, the speakers can log in and answer their questions in a written response format. That way, when attendees are revisiting the Q&A in the app or web, they will be able to see the written responses from the speaker to any questions that weren't able to be covered live during the sessions.  Moderating Live Q&A

EXACTLY what I was looking for! I'm reading the Live Display - is that display through the app, or can it be configured to a large screen placed somewhere in the conference for general public?

Thank you Julia!

Hi Chris,

Yes it can shown on screens during a presentation/displayed to attendees onsite - please reference step 2 of Using Live Display under the "Using Live Display From the Event App" header for more information.

"Tap Live display settings from Live Q&A or Polls and make note of the display link URL. Then enter the URL in a web browser. If you want to show the live display screen to attendees onsite, access the webpage on the computer that will be connected to the projector."
