Knowledge stacking
A content-focused webinar, one week before your live networking event
More and more organisations are choosing to deliberately separate content from networking. A content-focused webinar, held roughly a week before the live event, is a clever move in this respect—used as a strategic part of the overall event experience.
Why content first, then connection? A webinar offers space for focus. Attendees join online primarily for the content: insights, frameworks, new perspectives. Without the distraction of drinks receptions, table conversations or time pressure, deeper engagement can develop at each person’s own pace. This means everyone arrives at the live event with the same knowledge base and questions in mind. The result: higher-level conversations, getting to the heart of the matter more quickly, and less small talk.
The live event becomes stronger
Because the content has already been covered, the in-person event can focus on what it does best: connecting people. Networking becomes more meaningful because attendees meet one another around shared themes and current issues. The energy shifts from listening to exchanging ideas.
Why Laureen is an excellent fit for this
Thanks to her combination of content expertise and skilled facilitation. In a webinar, she asks the right questions, structures complex themes and actively involves participants. This lays a solid foundation for the live event. During the networking event itself, she can effortlessly build on that groundwork: referencing earlier insights, drawing connections and deepening conversations, all without losing the informal atmosphere.
The strategic pay-off
-
Greater content impact without time pressure
-
Better, more substantive networking conversations

Higher engagement before, during and after the event
