Hopin raises $40M Series A, Manny Pacquiao new lifestyle, The state of community tools
Hello community,
Without all webinars and virtual events, keeping in touch is almost impossible nowadays. Virtual events have definitely changed the way we interact with people (admit this: last year, we rarely get 10 participants in webinars).
It has accelerated the digitization of every industry, and you should have considered all possibilities. But what is missing? How do you make friends; connect with customers; are you excited about the virtual community?
