Help for Heroes - Virtual Conference 2020
LIVESTREAM
CLIENT BRIEF
After three previously live streamed events for Help for Heroes, the armed forces charity, contacted us again to help stage and broadcast their covid safe 2020 Internal Virtual Conference.
The 5 hour conference brought together their staff from their own homes via webcams mixed with pre-recorded content, produced by their excellent in-house Videographer Joe Gower.
INFRASTRUCTURE
With just a few weeks notice we worked with their Event Planner to plan the broadcast and ensure it was deliverable technically.
A few days before the event we ran technical tests to ensure all the speakers could connect with their own equipment at home.
In addition to the broadcasting we also provided stream hosting and created a bespoke page for the event on our un-branded streaming site. See an example of this here.
Due to the nature of the internal content we can only share a short extract above.
OUTCOME
Help for Heroes had never undertaken a fully virtual event like this before and they all embraced it. The broadcast was viewed by hundreds of their staff all over the country which not only saved them money bringing everyone together it was also much more eco friendly and reduced the risk of anyone catching Coronavirus.
We were also joined for the event by England Football Manager Gareth Southgate.
We look forward to supporting them on future events.
"StreamWorks did an excellent job, generously giving their time to host and stream our virtual conference. They oversaw every detail with utmost professionalism and care, ensuring our event ran like clockwork ... happy speakers, happy audience, happy event team! Thank you :-)" - Help For Heroes
