| Meet the Hybrid City Alliance |
|
Hybrid events are an important way forward for the event industry to return to live formats. This format provides a wider reach for your conference. In a hybrid meeting, some participants are attending in person and other participants are connecting virtually at the same time. You can even set up a multi-hub event connecting multiple locations around the world and make the meeting even more global and interactive.
Are you thinking about organizing hybrid events and not sure where to start? Do you need assistance with planning a multi-hub hybrid event?
The Hybrid City Alliance offers organizers of international events a solution when organizing multiple city hub events. The city partners in the Alliance are ready to act as one point of contact to streamline and simplify the clients’ interaction with multiple cities and suppliers regarding one event.
The Alliance was launched in December 2020 by the Hague Convention Bureau, Ottawa Tourism Business Events, Prague Convention Bureau and Geneva Convention Bureau.

According to the OECD Employment Outlook 2021, up to 21 million jobs were saved during the COVID 19 pandemic through the unprecedented expansion of retention schemes and income support, helping many households through the crisis.
However, even with economic growth expected to accelerate with vaccination programmes continuing and COVID restrictions being lifted, unemployment remains high. Reaching pre-pandemic employment rates may take several years.
