Coffee Chat Video Conferencing Solution
Facilitating virtual coffee chat moments with our video conferencing solution for the Red Cross Global Climate:Red Summit.
We enabled attendees to connect over virtual coffee chats as part of the International Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies Climate:Red Virtual Climate Summit using our lobby matchmaking and video conferencing solution. Attendees were able to select their preferred language and topics of discussion and enter a lobby matchmaking service that paired attendees on themes of discussion. As the Red Cross hosted over 200 virtual sessions, attendees were able to continue their important discussions around climate change and connect with attendees around the world using our video conferencing solution. The international reach of the Red Cross meant that we had to support content internationalization and therefore the service is translated into English, French, Spanish, and Arabic.
We helped to reduce costs for the global event by using pioneering peer-to-peer Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) technologies and integrated directly into the Climate:Red online conference system to provide a seamless video conferencing solution to event organizers allowing attendees to connect from all around the world.
