The Challenge: A flexible solution for various types of events

What was needed was a platform capable of handling both large and small digital event formats, with the ability to manage content and event setup independently.

Needs and challenges:

  • Manage both large and small digital events
  • Create consistency in recurring event formats
  • Give the organizer the ability to control the content and format themselves
  • Build community and engagement over time

Coeo provided a flexible platform that allows Uminova to set up and run its own digital events.

  • Content management system for managing programs and content
  • Features for speakers, tags, and votes
  • Support for both large-scale events and recurring webinars
