Case Studies
Innovation Week 2016
YPO Innovation Week with Richard Branson
- For YPO Innovation Week 2016, Virgin Group founder Sir Richard Branson spoke live to YPO members via a Geniecast-produced virtual videocast at the closing event at NASDAQ.
- The previously scheduled nal Keynote speaker fell through last minute; within 48 hours Geniecast was able to secure Branson for a virtual yet still interactive experience.
- The event led to a growth in the number of YPO events and attendance, served as proof of concept for engaging virtual presentations, and set the stage for 2017’s dynamic event with America Online founder Steve Case.
Forum
YPO Forum with Sue Hesse
- Through Forumocity, Geniecast’s forum facilitation program, YPO-certi ed facilitator Sue Hesse appeared virtually to manage a number of YPO Forum events.
- YPO Forum received the same high-quality forum facilitation they normally get, but the virtual format provided by Geniecast substantially cut the usual cost, time, and travel constraints imposed by in-person presentations.
- Geniecast and Forumocity continue to be a popular, innovative option for YPO forum groups.
Chapters
YPO Chapter Event - Victoria, BC
- For a recent YPO Victoria Chapter event, Geniecast presented an international panel of doctors to discuss current and future innovations in the medical space.
- The two-way, interactive video format allowed for engaging discussion between YPO Chapter members sitting in Victoria, British Columbia and medical experts sitting in Boston, Massachusetts and Tel Aviv, Israel.
- The event successfully highlighted a new, innovative way to present a health panel that could allow a wider audience access to global expertise that might otherwise be impossible to assemble.
