FAQ’s
Can you set-up a registration page?
Yes, absolutely, every event package has a registration included as standard. The is a custom branded landing page with customisable fields. In addition you can also integrate with other platforms such as Cvent.
What’s the difference between 2D and 3D?
The Procreation platform has the same powerful CMS system supporting both 2D and 3D solutions. This means that most features are available across both. 2D offers a more traditional flat webinar style visually, whereas 3D provides a fully immersive navigable environment. Typically 3D can take longer to deliver, and can also be more expensive, as there is more design and programming work involved in setting it up. Our environments include a virtual conference centre, sports arena, jungle or even a space station with transporters to beam your audience anywhere in the universe!

Yes, every event can be hosted on your own URL or we can provide one for you.

How do presenters connect to an event?
Presenters connect via the same login access as attendees, they are just provided with different permissions to allow them to present. If a session is being run as a live stream then a presenter would be provided a dedicated secure video link to connect to the studio. In all scenarios onboarding and rehearsal are completed ahead of the event to ensure everyone presenting knows exactly when and what to do on the day of each event.
Do you provide training and support for presenters?
Yes, every event we provide training (we call it ‘onboarding’) for anyone that will be joining a meeting session. This ensures all presenters or facilitators know exactly how to use the tools they need for their session. In addition rehearsals are also advised to support everyone, presenters and the production team and ensure each event will run smoothly.
How long does it take to set-up a platform?
For 3D platforms we usually advise at least 12 weeks, for 2D at least 4 weeks and four experience centres these are usually 12 weeks+, depending on complexity, design and trying required.
