AWSummit Announces “AWMeetup” Virtual Conference

BUCHAREST – AWSummit announced Monday that it is creating an online event called “AWMeetup” in an effort to “bring the industry together to do business online when it’s impossible to meet face to face under regular events.”

Running from April 27-29, AWMeetup aims to offer participants every facet of a standard conference that can be accommodated in the online environment. It will include a live-streamed panel “talk show” with “expert guests from the industry to discuss various topics that are important for the industry right now.”

Registration for AWMeetup is now open at www.awmeetup.com and there are no registration fees or costs of any kind to attend the free virtual event.

The first day of the meetup will feature a Speed Networking session in which participants will be paired with a potential new business collaborator based on the type of ticket each has registered with.

“Here you will have a maximum 3 min cam to cam session to discuss potential business and exchange virtual business cards when you’re done,” AWSummit said in its announcement.

Other interactive features will include Round Table sessions in which “anyone can come in and start their own discussion room,” according to the announcement.

“There can be up to 6 people on cam at the same time and it has its own chat for participants to take part in the discussion,” AWSummit said. “Look at this as a panel from the regular events.”

“AWMeetup is also offering free virtual business booth for every company that wants one,” the announcement continued. “Here the exhibitor can have their own branded spot during the meetup. They can have an offer that participants can opt-in to, a video explaining their business and even a go live and answer questions from the booth chat and invite people on cam. This will make you feel just like you were in their booth on the summit floor.”

“AWSummit has always been about bringing the industry together to do business, share education and experiences,” said Roxana, the Event Director of AWSummit. “So, this is what we want to do with our new free online event AWMeetup.”

“It’s important to add that this is not a replacement for our beloved AWSummit,” said Alex Gheorghe, Founder of AWSummit and NightProwl Studio. “The dates for AWSummit are still set between 25th-28th of August. But we are monitoring the situation around COVID-19 from day to day and will come back with a statement regarding this in the end of May.”
