“Virtual Events are a gathering of people sharing a common virtual environment on the Web, rather than meeting in a physical location. Virtual event platforms that can be accessed by any computer or compatible mobile device, combined with the use of social networking tools, create a highly interactive environment that can look and feel much like an in-person event”.
