Finally, technology can also have a negative impact on the human aspect of your conference, which is essential for creating a memorable and engaging experience for your speakers and attendees. Technology can sometimes create a sense of distance, isolation, or detachment among the participants, especially if you are hosting a virtual or hybrid conference. Technology can also distract, overwhelm, or annoy your speakers and attendees, especially if you use too much or too complex technology that is not relevant or useful for your conference goals. To avoid or reduce the human disconnect caused by technology, you should use technology that facilitates and enhances human interaction, communication, and feedback, such as live chats, polls, Q&A sessions, and social media. You should also balance the use of technology with some offline or non-technical activities, such as icebreakers, networking, or entertainment.
