"Like most B2B companies, we had to quickly pivot from an in-person event to a virtual customer conference when COVID-19 hit. Our strategy was to embrace the remote reality but also to create an experience that felt like a performance and developed a sense of community," said Kathie Johnson, Chief Marketing Officer, Talkdesk. "To do this, we selected Brightcove as the platform and leveraged its integration partner Pigeonhole for the live polling and social interaction. One analyst who compared B2B customer conferences stated Opentalk 2020 virtual 'struck the best balance of event duration, content, and engagement.' The development process with Brightcove was seamless and the response to our program has been extremely positive." "The pandemic is video's evolutionary moment, and as a result, video is now at the forefront of how we communicate with others, how we conduct business, and is enabling us to stay connected even when physically apart," said Sara Larsen, Chief Marketing Officer, Brightcove.
