The power of our virtual event platforms is in the global services and teams behind it. The virtual event platform solution is so powerful because it makes use of everything that the NEP Group has to offer. This ranges from our traditional broadcast facility services to post production and a wide variety of media solutions such augmented reality, remote commentary and many more. With our Virtual event solutions we translate physical events into virtual and hybrid events but we are also looking for the added value in virtual versus physical and the huge potential of virtual for our clients.
