Online Sponsors Manual

Your Contact Person

When booking please appoint a single point of contact within your Organisation.

All bookings will be recorded under the one name and all correspondence will be sent to this person.

Representatives

Anyone from your Organisation attending the event must register with Conference Design before the meeting. An individual event registration will be required to access the online meeting and exhibition areas.

Please check your sponsorship or exhibition inclusions to confirm the number of inclusive registrations available. Additional registrations can be purchased.

Exhibition Listings

Sponsors and exhibitors will be listed in the portal in order of sponsorship level followed by alphabetical order.

What does an online exhibition look like?

We will be using a platform called OnAIR by EventsAIR.

Just like a traditional exhibition at a face to face meeting, attendees can visit the virtual exhibition hall and engage with exhibitors.

Attendees can view exhibitor information, download brochures, and when the exhibition is open, engage in instant meetings with exhibitors.

OnAIR is a fully integrated and secure platform optimised for fully virtual events as well as hybrid events.

Accessing the OnAIR Portal

All representatives must be registered individually to gain access to the OnAIR conference portal.

Login details will be emailed directly to registered representative/s. The email will include auto-login details and credentials to provide your representative/s with access to the OnAIR conference portal directly.  Here they can gain access to your exhibitor dashboard by clicking on your stand.

Leading up to and throughout the event, your company representatives can text chat with each other and view your pre-loaded company brochures for reference.  They will also be able to connect with delegates during the showcase via the meeting hub.

What you need to participate

In order to participate as an online exhibitor at the event and make the most of the exhibition opportunities available, each of your exhibiting staff members will need access to a device (laptop or desktop computer are recommended), internet, a webcam and a microphone.

For the best user experience, we recommend using Google Chrome 2010+.

The OnAIR conference portal features a Lead Management function, you will create questions for your team to ask delegates when they visit the exhibition booth. This information can be exported and collated at any time during or after the event. This is a great tool for your organisation to capture information from delegates visiting your exhibition stand whether it is a question to form part of a research task, or for follow-up after the event.

How it works

When a delegate commences a meeting with your representative – subject to the delegate providing their permission – your representative may collect the delegate’s details and information based on, or guided by, your pre-loaded questions. The delegate’s responses can then be sent back to a staff member in your office or saved for follow-up after the conference. Your representatives must obtain every delegate’s consent before collecting details, so we recommend including a question such as: “Do you consent to receive follow-up communication from our company”.

Your automated message

An automatic email can also be created in advance through the Lead Management function, to be sent to all delegates whose information has been captured. Your pdf brochure can be attached, or the email might just be a simple ‘Thank you for visiting’.

Lead Management Set Up & Accessing Leads
To set up your lead questions, automated email, and lead alert email, please log into the Exhibition Portal: <<insert a link to the exhibition portal>> 

Only the main contact (the person managing your booking) will be able to set up the lead questions and emails and access the leads.

The digital eSatchel is exactly what it sounds like. We are taking a physical satchel that would be provided at a face to face meeting and adapting it to the online platform. Whilst we can’t add physical items such as pens, pads, coffee cups etc… this is still a great opportunity to add documents or links to resources for the event delegates.

Your eSatchel document may be a simple flyer or brochure for delegates to download or it may be a link to an online advertisement, a complimentary or discounted registration to an online webinar or workshop, a voucher to an online shop, a job opening, the list goes on.

We encourage you to be unique and creative with your eSatchel content!
