Along with the decision to run an online video conference/webinar, the first concern one thinks of is probably ‘webinar program planning.’ At Chris & Partners, before filming at the Webinar Studio, through advance consulting so solid planning can be prepared, we quickly grasp the client's needs and accordingly handle well-structured program planning

To run the most webinar-participant- and viewer-friendly operation for webinar participants and viewers, for the most friendly webinar operation, as you can see in the photo above, various video-conferencing systems are operated. It requires system operation that's not simple—just the laptops driven together with the video/audio/simultaneous-interpretation/live-streaming/video-conferencing systems total 9 units.

Holding many years of international-conference planning/operation know-how, Chris & Partners separately operates a cutting-edge system-rental subsidiary that can set up the system to suit each on/offline event, eliminating waste and raising quality to the highest level, ‘Ground Tune,’ and so ​provides high expertise and a competitive quote.

Accordingly, when consulting on the webinar/offline event the client wants, we provide detailed guidance on the suitable system.

For an international-conference webinar that participants connect to and watch from around the world tointernational-conference webinar run smoothly, technical checks are essential.

Professional technicians who have operated events joined by anywhere from thousands to tens of thousands of attendeesprofessional technicians are on hand from rehearsals through the start to the end of the live stream, meticulously checking so no problem occurs in the broadcast flow.

4. Incomparable management Overseas speaker booking x simultaneous-interpretation service

As international conferences go contactless via online video conferences/webinars, what's evaluated as an especially important competency is exactly ‘speaker invitation and management.’ As international conferences are run online, speakers can attend and give a speech if they can connect online, so considerable cost and time can be saved in logistics management such as flights and accommodation. From the speaker's standpoint too, the need to cross national borders by air, overcome time differences, and consume several days has gone, reducing the burden and enabling efficient international conferences.

​But while there are such strengths, the area of managing overseas-speaker invitations for webinars requires even more vigilance. Because everything is conducted as a real-time live broadcast, by the nature of an online video conference/webinar, the importance of managing the speaker's online connection came to the fore very strongly.

Through close communication with the invited speakers, we remove all anxious factors before the webinar goes live and resolve all possible problems in advance—know-how through which we successfully hold accident-free online conferences.

​Along with overseas-speaker invitation, the part cited as high technology in webinars can be called the area of ‘simultaneous interpretation.’

Chris & Partners, to suit the client's needs, holds the know-how to run an overseas speaker's English live webinar / Korean simultaneous-interpretation live webinar without sync issues, operating Korean simultaneous-interpretation webinars that can aid Korean audiences' understanding.

*Sync: occasionally, on other platforms, the mouth shape and audio differ due to issues with video quality, connection, and bandwidth

5. Flawless, thorough advance rehearsals

Chris & Partners has operated webinars with a 0% broadcast-accident rate by conducting thorough advance rehearsals based on accumulated international-conference planning skill and speaker-invitation management know-how.

As overseas speakers' connecting countries differ, the connection environment acts as a critical issue, so to run a smooth live broadcast, it's very important to build the same video-conferencing system as on the live day for all environments and manage and supervise so safe live streaming is possible.

Chris & Partners, based on the MICE industry's broad experience and knowledge, combines solid planning skill with trendy meeting technology to handle the optimal event for clients.
