One of the nice things about having everything on-demand for a virtual event is that you don’t have to carry a coin. With everything online, you don’t have to flip a coin to decide which session to attend when sessions overlap. Even better you don’t have to traverse a giant convention center between sessions to get from the Grand Ballroom to the Squirrel Theater on the far side of the building—or across the street. 

Virtual events have upsides and downsides. You can’t tweet to brag about exceeding your record for daily steps. But you also won’t experience the feedback from your feet that often comes with reaching that milestone. 

On the positive side, you can take the time you need to focus on the topics most important to your business and your career. You can come back another day to watch more—or share sessions with colleagues to help them get new insight. 

Here’s our Chief Operating Officer Paul Mountford to get you started:

We’ve posted all 30+ sessions from Pure//Accelerate Digital online. You’re in the driver’s seat. To better work with the virtual format, we’ve kept the sessions short and sweet. They’re all under 15 minutes, which keeps the content focused and lets you get what you need and move on. Just scan the QR codes from the video to learn more about the topic in each session.
