Here's a guide that can help with virtual events:

Benefits of hosting a virtual event

• Accessible - Anyone can join regardless of their location. Plus, you may have a recording afterward for anyone who'd like to watch at a later point.
• Easy to set up - It's relatively quick to set up an online event if you have the right tools.
• Scalable - For public events, an unlimited number of people can join.

Examples

Below are a few examples of events and webinars from August 2020:

• Notion Australia #3: Life as a gaming adventure in Notion
• Notion at Work: Bulletproof Task Management
• Notion Session for Beginners (Korean)
• Notion For Course Creators

Tools we recommend

• Zoom: you can use Zoom video calls for up to 100 people in one room.
• Crowdcast: this platform is great for public events with 1-3 speakers. You can also stream Crowdcast directly to your YouTube channel.

You are not required to use these tools - they're just recommendations!

Setting up

1. Choose a date.
2. Pick a format for your event. Having a "co-pilot" can be very helpful - consider bringing someone else on board to host with you.
   • Guest presentation
   • Workshop & skill building
   • Show & tell from the attendees
3. Choose the tool you'd like to use. This depends on the format and size of the crowd.
