News › We did it – 12th Jenaer Lasertagung virtually successful
Postpone or delete completely? Virtual, hybrid or presence? Like everyone, we discussed often and long last year whether and how the 12th Jenaer Lasertagung could take place. But then we decided quite clearly in favor of scientific and economic exchange and the virtual adventure.
By now, everyone knows about the feared difficulties and challenges of a virtual event: lack of networking and major technical dependencies. Despite these challenges, the Jenaer Lasertagung was able to be set up online with the mutual support of all participants and speakers. Over the course of two days, 47 highly exciting presentations from the laser industry were presented to the audience online. A big thank you goes to the speakers and exhibitors, who had professionally recorded their presentations in advanced to enable a technically flawless course of events.
At a conference, networking and mutual exchange are just as important for a successful event as the content of the presentations. A virtual lounge was set up especially for this purpose, so that participants and speakers could meet there during the generously designed breaks for a joint dialog, ask questions and share expert knowledge. The icing on the cake of the laser conference was the online evening event, which invited everyone to get to know each other with a drink. #Laser Spinaci The relaxed atmosphere, the joint networking and the top-class presentations ultimately made it possible for the laser conference to be a virtual success!
We would like to thank all participants, speakers, sponsors and exhibitors for their support! We take these wonderful experiences with us into the new year and look forward to future collaborations and events.
