At the beginning of the year, Deloitte’s Audit and Consulting Commission organized an event called The Pitch, which was attended by speakers from Deloitte and external guests. The idea was to invite seven start-ups to deliver a pitch before an audience of 150 people.
Vincent Guesdon, sub-director of innovation at Deloitte, shares his opinion of the app used during this event:
"We have used PowerVote to allow our clients to ask questions in real time and to facilitate networking. Its use allowed us to engage the audience, in a very short time, while creating a fully interactive environment, for instance with questions shown by order of popularity and voted on while speakers are delivering their presentations."
"PowerVote’s solution is fully adapted and optimized to facilitate engagement between strangers who could be interested in getting in contact with one another. Our guests really enjoyed being able to engage with one another and keeping in contact with people who they got to know."
"What our guests and partners of Deloitte really appreciated is the excellent ergonomics and user-friendliness of PowerVote’s event app. We gave the participants access to the app without giving them any other explanation than the app’s link, and we told them that they could ask questions via the app. As simple as that! The visual quality of the app’s interface on a smartphone is impeccable, something which is essential."
"I’m now thinking about how we can use the event app in a more optimized way at future events. For example, we could use the platform to keep in touch after the event. Furthermore, it could help us keep our guests informed about the event – including the date, time, programme, location map, and activities close by – before, during and after its celebration."
"Our partnership with PowerVote has opened up new possibilities for innovating with the format, content and communication of the events that we organize. PowerVote’s app is an efficient tool that has the capacity to transform an event into a memorable experience and a resounding success."
"In conclusion, if we had to describe PowerVote’s solution in three words, these would be user-friendliness, flexibility and efficiency."
