[Video] Engaging Attendees: A TD Bank Workplace Diversity Event

Not so long ago, EventMobi had the privilege of partnering with TD Bank on a special workplace diversity event. A keynote and executive panel were invited to discuss the issues and challenges regarding workplace diversity and the audience was encouraged to chime in with their own stories, challenges, and questions.

The problem was ensuring the audience felt comfortable enough to ask probing questions in a public forum. Organizers also wanted to encourage attendees to meet new people. Thanks to EventMobi’s event technology platform featuring live polls, a networking game, and an anonymous tech-enabled Q&A session, TD Bank accomplished all of these goals and more. Here’s their story:

 

Recap: How Event Technology Enhanced The Workplace Diversity Event

  • A branded & secure mobile app gave participants a better option for viewing the agenda and speaker profiles
  • The tech-enabled Q&A session allowed audience members to ask hard-hitting questions anonymously which helped create a more authentic dialogue on workplace diversity issues
  • Live polls permitted the speakers to get real-time feedback on workplace diversity challenges facing employees — critical for pushing forward the agenda
  • Networking games in the app incentivized and rewarded attendees for meeting new people and this ignited novel conversations, exciting possibilities, and different connections
