ARHT Media (ART) recently beamed the president and CEO of the Professional Convention Management Association (PCMA) from Toronto to Singapore.
Through ARHT Media’s hologram technology, the PCMA’s Sherrif Karamat was able to virtually attend the association’s annual signature event.
The event took place at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands Hotel in January. ARHT’s technology was deployed by Singapore-based strategic partner Electronics & Engineering PTE Ltd.
The hybrid event brought together a small group of event professionals in Singapore and was streamed online to a larger audience. Karamat was beamed-in to kick-off the event and then joined a panel discussion.
Karamat said the experience made him feel like he was in Singapore with his colleagues.
“This is a great example of creativity born during the pandemic that will continue to serve as a model for overcoming time and geography for future events,” Karamat said.
ARHT Media CEO Larry O’Reilly said he believes hybrid events like this will continue, especially in places where the pandemic has been successfully managed.
“Singapore, with a relatively lower level of COVID cases, and employing a host of technologies including ours, has led the resurgence of smaller in-person conferences combined with a large online audience,” said O’Reilly.
ARHT Media’s patented HoloPresence technology is a complete end-to-end solution that creates a sense of presence for audiences – as though the holographic presenter was actually live in the room.
ARHT Media opened at C$0.27 per share.
