Planning Your Virtual Event Strategy in Advance: Securing the Best Deals from Suppliers 

Introduction 

Planning a successful virtual event is a multi-faceted endeavor that requires meticulous preparation, including a well-thought-out strategy and wise financial management. In this blog, we will guide you on how to plan your virtual event strategy in advance to not only create a memorable experience but also secure the best deals from suppliers, maximizing your budget and resources. 

Step 1: Define Your Event Goals and Budget 

Before diving into the logistics, start by defining your event’s goals and setting a realistic budget. Know the purpose of your virtual event and what you want to achieve, whether it’s lead generation, brand awareness, education, or community building. A well-defined budget will help you make informed decisions when negotiating with suppliers. 

Step 2: Create a Detailed Event Plan 

A comprehensive event plan is crucial to stay organized and make informed decisions. This plan should include your event’s structure, schedule, content, and audience engagement strategies. Determine the size and scope of your event, the number of attendees, and the duration. The more specific your plan, the easier it will be to communicate your needs to suppliers. 

Step 3: Identify Key Suppliers 

Identify the suppliers that are essential for your virtual event’s success. This typically includes platform providers, content creators, technical support, marketing agencies, and any other third-party services. Research and compile a list of potential suppliers who can meet your needs. 

Step 4: Request Proposals and Quotes 

Once you’ve identified potential suppliers, reach out to them for proposals and quotes. Clearly outline your event’s requirements, specifying what services or products you need, and the timeline for delivery. Be open to receiving competitive proposals and quotes from multiple suppliers.

How to Keep In-Person and Virtual Audiences Hooked?

As the world embraces the new normal, virtual events have become a game-changer for businesses and organizations in Mumbai and beyond. 24 Frames Digital, a leading virtual events management company in India, has been at the forefront of providing top-notch services, including event microsite creation, virtual event platform management, and seamless execution of virtual corporate events. 

When hosting a virtual award function or any event, the challenge lies in engaging both in-person and online audiences simultaneously. In this blog, we will explore some effective strategies to capture and retain the attention of both types of audiences, ensuring a successful and memorable virtual event experience.

1. Create an Interactive Virtual Event Platform:

A well-designed and interactive virtual event platform is the foundation of a successful event. Work with a virtual event service provider specializing in creating engaging platforms offering intuitive navigation, networking opportunities, and easy access to event content. Incorporate gamification elements, live polls, and Q&A sessions to keep both in-person and virtual attendees actively participating.

2. Seamlessly Integrating In-Person and Virtual Experiences:

Blending the in-person and virtual experiences is essential to ensure attendees feel connected. Utilize live streaming services to broadcast in-person segments to the virtual audience. Likewise, offer virtual attendees opportunities to interact with on-site participants through live chat or video conferencing. This integration will bridge the gap between the two audiences and enhance the overall event experience.

3. Engage Virtual Audiences with Live Interaction:

Virtual event management companies in India, like 24 Frames Digital, can facilitate live interaction for virtual attendees. Encourage the audience to ask questions, share their thoughts, and participate in networking sessions. Offer incentives for active participation, such as virtual giveaways or access to exclusive content, to keep them engaged throughout the event.

4. Tailor Content for Both Audiences:

While planning the event's content, consider the preferences and requirements of both in-person and virtual audiences. Create separate tracks or sessions for each audience, ensuring that the content is relevant and valuable. For virtual attendees, provide on-demand access to recorded sessions so they can catch up on missed content.

5. Leverage Virtual Event Microsites:

Virtual event microsites provide a centralized hub for event-related information, updates, and resources. Collaborate with a virtual event microsite provider to design a visually stunning and user-friendly microsite that contains all event information. This ensures that in-person and virtual attendees can easily access to event schedules, speaker profiles, and downloadable resources.

6. Incorporate Immersive Virtual Elements:

To capture virtual audiences, consider incorporating immersive visual elements such as 3D environments, augmented reality experiences, or interactive virtual booths. These features create novelty and excitement, making the virtual experience more engaging and memorable.

7. Utilize Post-Event Engagement Strategies:

The corporate event or virtual award function does not complete the event. Employ post-event engagement strategies to keep both audiences hooked even after the event concludes. Send personalized thank-you emails, share event highlights on social media, and provide access to recorded sessions and event resources. Encourage attendees to share their experiences and feedback to foster a sense of community.

8. Measure Success and Learn from Feedback:

Evaluate the success of your virtual event by analyzing metrics such as attendance, engagement rate, and attendee feedback. Virtual event management companies like 24 Frames Digital can provide valuable insights to understand what worked well and areas for improvement. Use this data to refine future virtual events and create more captivating experiences.

Conclusion:

Hosting a virtual event that keeps both audiences hooked is challenging but rewarding. By partnering with a reputable virtual events service provider like 24 Frames Digital and implementing the strategies mentioned above, you can deliver all attendees a seamless and immersive experience. Embrace the power of virtual events, and witness how they transform your events into unforgettable and engaging experiences for everyone involved.

I'm glad your KS problem got solved. Can you please use some time to post about Palestine? People are being killed in your name. Use your platform please. Thank you

Hey anon! So...no, I won't be doing that. What the fuck do you even mean "people are being killed in my name"? Absolutely no one is killing in my name, and I owe talking about it more to no one.

First, I trigger pretty severely to harm to children, which automatically means that a great deal of the coverage of Palestine is very triggering for me.

Second, I think there are plenty of people already blogging about this, that not every single blog needs to become wall-to-wall discussion of Palestine, and that mass-blogging about the conflict is entirely performative.

Third, in general I rarely blog about political events, and when I do it's virtually always US election (FOR FUCK'S SAKE YOU HAVE TO VOTE) and/or things about censorship, because those are the areas that interest me and that I personally feel strongly about.

Fourth, I think the demand that a stranger blog about that one specific event, ignoring all the other ongoing tragedies in the world (the war in Ukraine and the genocide in the Congo, to name two that spring immediately to mind) is honestly heckin' weird.

Fifth, I own and run a business, and it's entirely within my rights to decide to keep that business apart from incredibly divisive current events. The business account (which is entirely separate from my personal account - it's not a side blog, it's a separate log in) - when it interacts with political topics at all - primarily blogs about recent happenings in publishing and related fields (so, legislation about free speech, ongoing strikes, etc.) and about recent happenings related to queer things (positive legislation and negative legislation being proposed or passed). I intentionally do not blog about other political topics, because they have nothing to do with the business. The most political the Press has gotten about the conflict in the Middle East is that we've quietly removed a couple books from rec lists that were written by authors or released by publishers who have managed, by publicizing their OWN views, to become especially controversial (especially on Tiktok) and even that I did extremely reluctantly, I just don't want to get Tiktok cancelled because we spent 5 seconds saying we liked a book by someone they currently hate, because Tiktok is Like That.

As to my own personal views on the conflict, which you are in absolutely no way entitled to know but which I have previously shared publicly so don't mind sharing again, I am a Jew and I was raised to believe that when all the rest of the world turned on us, Israel would always be the one place where we'd be safe, and I clung to that belief over 40 years of watching Israel become increasingly right wing and jingoistic, continuing to believe that the surest path to safety and security for everyone involved was a two-state solution.

As I previously wrote here, in the face of Israel's current actions against Palestine, I no longer believe that. If this is how Israel behaves, I no longer think Israel has a right to exist. I do still think that the best outcome right now is a two-state solution, but one that involves the complete abolition of the current Israeli government and army, to be replaced with a system that isn't, ya know, disgustingly fascist - and that if that can't be done, we need a one-state solution, and that one state shouldn't be Israel. This is my personal opinion.

However, I also acknowledge that for many Jews, this is an incredibly loaded, difficult topic, and I would never align my business to an official position like this because I have no desire to alienate people who I know feel as conflicted and complicated about this as I do myself. I take it as a matter of simple real fact that I respect my friends and colleagues enough to accept that they may reach different conclusions than I have about this, and I don't want them to feel unwelcome in a space that I've created because I on an individual level have reached a different conclusions about what I believe to be the best ending for this conflict than they have. We also do not allow political conversations of this stripe in our server for the same reason.

No matter how much people on both sides keep trying to paint this conflict as black and white, right and wrong, with one-and-done magic single-switch solutions, it's not that simple, never has been, and never will be, and the reality on the ground of ways to resolve this are also not that simple. Now, to be clear, I think it IS simple and accurate to say: the killing needs to stop i.m.m.e.d.i.a.t.e.l.y. That's a given and I think I'd be hard-pressed to find anyone in the circles I travel in who'd disagree. But what should happen AFTER that? That's where I think reasonable people can still disagree about what should happen next to that land and the people living on it.

Anyway.

I should probably stop talking before, in my effort to be nuanced and balanced, I say something that leads someone to think I should be canceled. I am against the genocide 100% and this conflict has turned me from reluctantly vaguely okay with zionism to anti-zionist, but I also am tired of seeing people act like big problems have easy solutions, and I'm tired of the suggestion that anyone who isn't performatively outraged about this specific situation 24/7 is a bad person with wrong opinions.

Like, I think you need to take a look in the mirror and ask yourself why you thought this was an appropriate ask to send a stranger. I'm genuinely disgusted that you'd try to turn a conflict that has nothing to do with me into something I'm personally responsible for because it's being done "in my name." Honestly, what the fuck is wrong with you? Antisemitic much? I'm a Jew, but that doesn't and never will mean that the Israeli government speaks for me or in my name. Fuck you.

APEX Cybernetics was in precarious position. The Mechagodzilla project was going well. Too well. In its early days, APEX had stocked up on as much Titan DNA as it could harvest before the events of Keizer Ghidorah and the Many’s rampage made acquiring such genetic material an international crime. It had managed to acquire various specimens, including many skullcrawler eggs. However over time, their supply dwindled. The mechs and its prototype had proven to be too effective at defeating its opponents, eviscerating damn near every last Titan specimen the company had on hand. Things were getting desperate. They could continue to clone what little stock they had left of course, but would it really help? Sure the mecha may have been able to wipe out skullcrawlers just fine, but how would it fair against a true Titan? Especially against a king.

Luckily for those unfortunate APEX scientists tasked with figuring out a solution, one soon came. Somehow, someway, Walter Simmons came into a large stockpile of Titan DNA, recovered from the battle against the many. Amongst the various samples was genetic tissue from the king himself, Godzilla. This would be perfect. There was just one small issue: all calculations showed that a member of Godzilla’s species would take years, potentially even decades, to reach its maturity. That wouldn’t. They could not have Mechagodzilla facing off against a mere infant. There would be no point. But Skullcrawlers took only a few months to reach maturity, especially once pumped with the stimulants the company had engineered. And so, with the insistence of Mr Simmons, APEX’s genetic labs attempted something different. Something bold. Something mad. They would use genetic tissue from both Skullcrawlers and Godzilla to create a clone which would reach physical maturity at the rate of the former, while having the physical capabilities of the latter. They would not be an exact genetic copy, but it was close enough. It was risky. But would it pay off?

Some months later, Walter Simmons was invited to observe firsthand the progress on “Project: Nephew”, so named for its intended close but not quite replication of Godzilla’s form. When he arrived, he was aghast at what he saw. The process, in an attempt to splice the genetic material and replicate the advanced development of skullcrawlers, had produced an abomination unlike any he had ever seen. Like Godzilla, it possessed four limbs instead of the Skullcrawlers two, but they were all wrong. The front arms seemed to have developed in a strange misshapen way, resemble long Godzilla’s but as if stretched across a frame they weren’t built for. They were thin, to the point of being little more than skin stretched across a petite layer of musculature atop bone. A thin membrane, remnants of what should have been broader shoulders, hung limply below The body was no better, with a stick thin upper half coalescing into a fleshy misshapen hip region, with thighs that resembled tumors more than functioning legs. A long and bulbous tail followed, dragging the poor creatures weight in a way that forced it to stand upright, despite every other part of its body showing that it shouldn’t be able to stand that way, let alone move. For the most part, the being lacked Godzilla’s dorsal plates, except for a few scattered atop its neck and cranium. Unlike the king’s they were not sharp and proud, but deformed and splayed out in odd positions, resembling blobs of flesh more than individual plates. As he observers its long spindly neck, he soon came to that which rested atop it. A horrifically misshapen head, with a snout which curved upwards towards it cranium, with a layer of flesh which alternated between virtually nonexistent and inflated making its way around the skull. Its eyes were hollow, damn near lifeless.

Simmons couldn’t believe what he was seeing. How had an attempt to create a near clone of Godzilla resulted in this? As he inquired, furious in his questions, he soon gained some insight. The abnormalities were the result of the two species genetic code attempting to overwrite the other as it grew, a process only worsened by the stimulants which it was supplied. Furthermore, while the creature was physically an adult, it was incredibly small, barely bigger than Kong had been in 1973. But the worst was yet to come. The dueling genomes and accelerated growth cycle had left it effectively with the mental state of an infant despite its body being far older. This was not a prognosis that would or could improve, as the damage to its genetic structure had seemingly permanently halted brain development.

Walter Simmons was aghast. All of his money, all of his resources, and this was the best his team could provide? It was a failure. And Walter Simmons despised failure. Within minutes he ordered the team to go back to the drawing board. To figure out a new way to achieve the desired result, lest they no longer be of use to APEX. As for the aberration, it was to be terminated. It couldn’t be set free of course, that would raise suspicion. And Simmons would rather be caught dead before he let this thing face off against either of his previous mecha. So, with a flippant turn and a saunter, he ordered the poor creation to be fed to the other test subjects. Alive. It would serve as a treat for the beasts and a warning for those who had brought poor thing into this world to begin with.

That was probably a mess but just had the idea what with April Fools and Easter being so close together, that a lil body horror take on one of the biggest scrappy’s in the franchise would make sense. I’ll be back with Abraxasverse takes on actual Toho Kaiju soon. Happy April Fools!

Oh hey, I remember Godzooky, this should be inter--

...well then.

Professional Website Hosting and Management Services

In today’s digital age, having a strong online presence is crucial for any business or organization. A well-designed website serves as a virtual storefront, allowing you to reach a global audience and showcase your products, services, or ideas. However, creating and maintaining a website requires technical expertise, time, and resources that not everyone possesses. That’s where professional website hosting and management services come into play.

What is Website Hosting?

Website hosting refers to the process of storing your website files on a server that is connected to the internet. When someone types your website’s domain name into their browser, their device connects to the server, retrieves the website files, and displays the webpages. Website hosting is a critical component of your online presence, as it ensures your website is accessible to visitors at all times.

The Benefits of Professional Website Hosting and Management Services

While it is possible to host a website on your own, opting for professional website hosting and management services offers numerous advantages. Let’s explore some of the key benefits:

1. Reliability and Uptime:

Professional hosting providers offer reliable and secure servers, ensuring that your website is accessible to visitors around the clock. They have redundant systems in place to minimize downtime and address any technical issues promptly. This ensures a seamless browsing experience for your users, enhancing their trust and satisfaction.

2. Technical Support:

Managing a website involves dealing with technical challenges such as server configuration, software updates, and security patches. With professional hosting services, you have access to a dedicated support team that can assist you with any technical issues that arise. This allows you to focus on your core business activities while leaving the technical aspects to the experts.

3. Scalability:

As your business grows, so does the traffic to your website. Professional hosting providers offer scalable solutions that can accommodate increased traffic and ensure optimal performance. They have the infrastructure and resources to handle high volumes of visitors, preventing your website from becoming slow or unresponsive.

4. Enhanced Security:

Website security is of paramount importance, especially in an era of increasing cyber threats. Professional hosting services implement robust security measures, including firewalls, malware scanning, and regular backups, to protect your website and its data. They stay updated with the latest security protocols and continuously monitor for any potential vulnerabilities.

5. Additional Services:

Many professional hosting providers offer a range of additional services to enhance your website’s functionality and performance. These may include content delivery networks (CDNs) to improve page load speeds, SSL certificates for secure data transmission, and automatic backups to safeguard your data in case of unforeseen events.

Choosing the Right Professional Hosting Provider

With numerous hosting providers available, selecting the right one for your specific needs can be daunting. Here are some factors to consider when choosing a professional hosting provider:

1. Reliability and Uptime Guarantee:

Ensure that the hosting provider has a proven track record of reliability and offers an uptime guarantee of at least 99%. You don’t want your website to be inaccessible due to server issues or maintenance downtime.

2. Scalability Options:

Consider the scalability options offered by the hosting provider. Can they accommodate your website’s growth and handle sudden traffic spikes? A flexible hosting solution is crucial to ensure your website performs well under varying loads.

3. Security Measures:

Check the security measures implemented by the hosting provider. Are they proactive in addressing security threats? Do they offer SSL certificates, regular backups, and malware scanning? Robust security measures are essential to protect your website and sensitive data.

4. Technical Support:

Ensure that the hosting provider offers reliable and responsive technical support. Look for providers that offer 24/7 support through various channels like live chat, email, or phone. Quick assistance during emergencies can save you valuable time and prevent potential losses.

5. Pricing and Value for Money:

While cost shouldn’t be the sole deciding factor, it’s important to compare pricing plans and determine the value for money offered by different hosting providers. Consider the features, performance, and support you receive for the price you pay.

Conclusion

Professional website hosting and management services provide businesses and organizations with a reliable, secure, and scalable online infrastructure. By outsourcing the technical aspects of website management, you can focus on your core activities while ensuring an optimal user experience for your website visitors. Choosing the right hosting provider is crucial to unlock the benefits of professional website hosting and maximize your online presence.

Investing in professional hosting services is a wise decision for any business or organization that values their online presence. It allows you to leverage the expertise and infrastructure of a dedicated team while ensuring your website remains accessible, secure, and performs at its best. Don’t underestimate the impact that a well-hosted and managed website can have on your brand, customer satisfaction, and business success.

"Top Gun" School will modernize its F-16

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 08/18/2023 - 19:46 in Military

The U.S. Navy awarded a contract worth US$818 million to the U.S. government defense engineering company, Amentum, which is expected to allow the support and modernization of the "Aggressor" unit equipped with F-16 fighter planes operating inside the famous "Top Gun" school.

The F-16 multimission fighter is not part of the U.S. Navy's endowment but is used in a certain number to simulate enemy fighters. Since 1998, the U.S. Navy has used 26 units of the F-16 (22 monoplaces and 4 biplaces). In 2002, 14 other F-16 fighters initially planned for the Pakistan Air Force joined the prestigious "Top Gun" school at Fallon Naval Station in Nevada.

The F-16 aircraft thus complement the old Northrop F-5 E/F Tiger II, the F/A-18 Hornet and a first squadron of F-35s to simulate the latest generation of Chinese aircraft in particular. But also very useful for working on combat tactics against 5ª generation stealth aircraft.

As part of the modernization of the F-16 "Aggressor", the company Amentum will ensure the operational maintenance of the F-16 A/B/C/D aircraft and will ensure the full maintenance of the system and the support of the supply chair to ensure the continuity of flight operations. During the term of the contract, Amentum will help the U.S. Navy increase its F-16 "Aggressor" fleet at all locations.

Under the Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) contract, Amentum will provide technical, support and logistics solutions for U.S. Navy F-16 aircraft based in Fallon, Nevada.

This contract begins on August 31, 2023, has a base period of five years and an option period of three years, and is contracted through the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) supporting the Naval Aviation Warfighting Development Center (NAWDC) and the Naval Air Force Reserve, Tactical Support Wing (TSW).

One of Amentum's main objectives will be to track the cracks that appear in some of the cell partitions. This problem is not unique to F-16, it occurs in virtually all cells over time. The F-16 is designed to support a load of up to 9 Gs with a lifespan of 8,000 flight hours. In addition, the wing hardpoints have been reinforced to support the expected higher G rates. A consequence of extreme dogfights inside the "Top Gun". By strengthening this part of the aircraft, it is possible that a weaker link has been created elsewhere.

Amentum is a global leader in engineering, project management and solution integration, trusted to modernize the most critical missions in the world. Supported by a strong culture of ethics, safety and inclusion, Amentum is strongly committed to operational excellence and successful execution. Headquartered in Chantilly, Virginia, the company employs more than 44,000 employees.

AWS Security 101: Protecting Your Cloud Investments

In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, few names resonate as strongly as Amazon.com. This global giant, known for its e-commerce prowess, has a lesser-known but equally influential arm: Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS is a powerhouse in the world of cloud computing, offering a vast and sophisticated array of services and products. In this comprehensive guide, we'll embark on a journey to explore the facets and features of AWS that make it a driving force for individuals, companies, and organizations seeking to utilise cloud computing to its fullest capacity.

Amazon Web Services (AWS): A Technological Titan

At its core, AWS is a cloud computing platform that empowers users to create, deploy, and manage applications and infrastructure with unparalleled scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. It's not just a platform; it's a digital transformation enabler. Let's dive deeper into some of the key components and features that define AWS:

1. Compute Services: The Heart of Scalability

AWS boasts services like Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud), a scalable virtual server solution, and AWS Lambda for serverless computing. These services provide users with the capability to efficiently run applications and workloads with precision and ease. Whether you need to host a simple website or power a complex data-processing application, AWS's compute services have you covered.

2. Storage Services: Your Data's Secure Haven

In the age of data, storage is paramount. AWS offers a diverse set of storage options. Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) caters to scalable object storage needs, while Amazon EBS (Elastic Block Store) is ideal for block storage requirements. For archival purposes, Amazon Glacier is the go-to solution. This comprehensive array of storage choices ensures that diverse storage needs are met, and your data is stored securely.

3. Database Services: Managing Complexity with Ease

AWS provides managed database services that simplify the complexity of database management. Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service) is perfect for relational databases, while Amazon DynamoDB offers a seamless solution for NoSQL databases. Amazon Redshift, on the other hand, caters to data warehousing needs. These services take the headache out of database administration, allowing you to focus on innovation.

4. Networking Services: Building Strong Connections

Network isolation and robust networking capabilities are made easy with Amazon VPC (Virtual Private Cloud). AWS Direct Connect facilitates dedicated network connections, and Amazon Route 53 takes care of DNS services, ensuring that your network needs are comprehensively addressed. In an era where connectivity is king, AWS's networking services rule the realm.

5. Security and Identity: Fortifying the Digital Fortress

In a world where data security is non-negotiable, AWS prioritizes security with services like AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management) for access control and AWS KMS (Key Management Service) for encryption key management. Your data remains fortified, and access is strictly controlled, giving you peace of mind in the digital age.

6. Analytics and Machine Learning: Unleashing the Power of Data

In the era of big data and machine learning, AWS is at the forefront. Services like Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce) handle big data processing, while Amazon SageMaker provides the tools for developing and training machine learning models. Your data becomes a strategic asset, and innovation knows no bounds.

7. Application Integration: Seamlessness in Action

AWS fosters seamless application integration with services like Amazon SQS (Simple Queue Service) for message queuing and Amazon SNS (Simple Notification Service) for event-driven communication. Your applications work together harmoniously, creating a cohesive digital ecosystem.

8. Developer Tools: Powering Innovation

AWS equips developers with a suite of powerful tools, including AWS CodeDeploy, AWS CodeCommit, and AWS CodeBuild. These tools simplify software development and deployment processes, allowing your teams to focus on innovation and productivity.

9. Management and Monitoring: Streamlined Resource Control

Effective resource management and monitoring are facilitated by AWS CloudWatch for monitoring and AWS CloudFormation for infrastructure as code (IaC) management. Managing your cloud resources becomes a streamlined and efficient process, reducing operational overhead.

10. Global Reach: Empowering Global Presence

With data centers, known as Availability Zones, scattered across multiple regions worldwide, AWS enables users to deploy applications close to end-users. This results in optimal performance and latency, crucial for global digital operations.

In conclusion, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is not just a cloud computing platform; it's a technological titan that empowers organizations and individuals to harness the full potential of cloud computing. Whether you're an aspiring IT professional looking to build a career in the cloud or a seasoned expert seeking to sharpen your skills, understanding AWS is paramount.
