Virtual Experience Platform Version 4.0 from 6Connex Released

6Connex just released version 4.0 of their Virtual Experience Platform. The Virtual Experience
Platform enables businesses and individuals to connect and engage anytime and anywhere using a dimensional environment-like architecture that can be utilized for internal meetings, virtual events, tradeshows, medical conferences, conventions, congresses, symposia and hybrid meetings, and beyond.

Version 4.0 of the Virtual Experience Platform is the result of a focused effort to develop a social engagement framework for best of breed social networking application functionality. It continues an emphasis on creating an integrated user experience that promotes virtual communication and collaboration in order to engage and sustain users in our environment.

“The release of Version 4.0 of our Virtual Experience Platform is about evaluating and addressing the needs of event managers and organizers who have different needs across multiple markets,” said Leon Papkoff, CTO of 6Connex. “We will continue to stay focused on building out our Virtual Experience Platform to create an integrated, personalized experience that engages users to communicate and collaborate.”

Breakout Meeting Rooms – In addition to an Auditorium or Exhibit Halls, the Virtual Experience Platform v4.0 gives event organizers the option of setting up separate private meeting rooms. This feature was designed to address the needs of small, medium and midmarket-sized businesses requiring a place to discuss and distribute content in a setting more intimate than a booth.
Tracks and Sessions – Event managers can tailor content “tracks” and guide participants to relevant points of interest in sessions. In addition, the Virtual Experience Platform v4.0 allows visitors to easily locate a particular session during a virtual event. This feature particularly addresses the need to host a series of education, training, panels that require specific topical areas of focus.
Content Weighting – This powerful new feature lets event organizers “weight” uploaded content and determine its relative priority in the Content Recommendation Toolbar as well as its Search result ranking. In emphasizing the right information at the right time, this unique feature helps craft a relevant brand experience and a truly one-to-one, engaging marketing
experience.
Optional Photo/Avatar Roster View – Users can select an alternative view of all event participants with uploaded photos or avatars based on their profile. Associating faces with names helps humanize the experience and increase a more natural social interaction.
Event Participant Roll Call – A profile card of each new event participant featuring their photo/avatar and brief profile fades in and out in a separate window on the event participant’s screen to indicate who is in the virtual event. This lets users see not only who is at the event, but provides the ability to engage and dialogue.
Booth Representative Photos – Photos of booth representatives can be uploaded and assigned to a particular booth or node within a booth. The photo appears in a pop-up window when an attendee enters a booth and gives event participants the ability to engage with multiple representatives or simply opt out.
Document and Resume Upload and Sharing – When registering for a virtual career fair or virtual human resource center, attendees can upload important personal documents such as their resume. And when engaged in one-on-one chat, all users can request each other’s documents. This fosters dialogue between recruiters, employers, and potential new hires.
Promotional Event Video – As event participants transition from physical to virtual events, education is key to a positive experience. Organizers can now upload a brief promotional video into the Virtual Experience Platform v4.0 to give attendees the option to learn more about the event.
