A key feature that many event attendees and sponsors look forward to is the networking possibilities at events. When it comes to in-person and hybrid events, it is vital for people to be aware of the meeting arena and locations allocated for networking to set up meetings. This is where area maps come in handy. The Brella app allows event organizers to upload a venue map and a networking area map to make the networking experience more convenient for their attendees.
Venue map
The venue map is a general floor plan of the area where the event is held. The venue map will be visible on the home screen of the mobile app as well as within the session slots. This map is mainly focused on demonstrating to the event attendees where each session/location is in the venue.
Go to the event admin panel at https://manager.brella.io/
