The first week of 2018 culminated in a new challenge for the Gevme team. It’s with great honor and dedication that Gevme powered Pravasi Bharatiya Divas (PBD) Singapore on the 6th and 7th of January, 2018.
PBD is a meeting celebrated annually that focuses on building mutually beneficial connections between overseas and local Indian communities. This year, the event took place at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, celebrating 25 years of ASEAN-Indian partnership. With the goal to accelerate cooperation and understanding between diaspora communities, PBD 2018 was themed “Ancient Route, New Journey: Diaspora in the Dynamic ASEAN-Indian Partnership.”
Technological expertise was one of the principal aspects that PBD Singapore organizers paid close attention to. Apart from showcasing Mitra, the robot created in “New Age India,” the meeting leveraged Gevme technology to automate the registration and check-in processes.
Registration and Ticketing
With 3000+ delegates expected to attend PBD Singapore 2018, it was crucial to find a viable online registration system. Using Gevme Registration, the organizers managed to create a mobile-responsive event page with an integrated ticketing module. In a few clicks, the users could choose a ticket type, make a payment, and get a QR-code providing access to the two-day conference via email.
Onsite check-in
GEVME Onsite helped the event coordinators prevent lengthy queues during the check-in process. The registrants went through a quick QR-code scanning and got their badges instantly. With our flexible onsite setups, the team managed to check-in 3000+ delegates only in 75 minutes.
Final note
With 2 days of inspiring conversations, over 3000 delegates, 15 sessions, 50+ speakers, 40+ Indian business leaders, and Robot Mitra as a special tech guest, PBD 2018 became a buzzy event for both Indian diaspora and the local community. With the support of GEVME Registration and Onsite, PBD Singapore 2018 organizers ensured a frictionless event start and pleasurable attendance experiences.
