Building off the success of our 2020 Virtual Conference, we are pleased to announce our next virtual conference from May 31st – June 2nd, 2021. The conference theme is The Three Rs: Reflection, Resilience and Reinvention and will incorporate high profile keynote speakers, panel discussions, concurrent sessions, Q&A sessions, and virtual networking breaks. Topics will be of interest to the long-term care, assisted living, independent living, and home health audiences. We have built-in daily dedicated tradeshow hours, daily Lunch + Learn Exhibitor Product Demos opportunities, interactive networking breaks, and a scavenger hunt designed to bring attendees and sponsors/exhibitors together. We are very pleased to announce that Handicare will continue to support the association and the virtual conference as our Title Sponsor.
Attendee Feedback from the 2020 Virtual Conference
- It surpassed my expectations. The sessions were easy to watch, were clear and audible, speaker engagement with the audience through the chat feature seemed effective, sessions started on time, the range of speakers and topics and live sessions were fantastic.
- I liked the real-time conversations. The virtual Exhibit Hall was a great idea.
- I found the event inspiring. Everyone involved was passionate about their work and that lent a real sense of excitement about the conference. I looked forward to it every day.
- Reading about what each sponsor does and how they contribute to senior care.
Our Events and Recognition Committee and the BCCPA team have incorporated feedback from our last virtual conference, attended several other virtual conferences, and are harnessing new features in our virtual event platform Pheedloop to create a more interactive experience for our attendees and exhibitors.
We have developed virtual sponsorship opportunities that will increase your brand’s visibility and showcase you as a supporter of our association before, during, and after the event.
We are expecting 300 key decision-makers to virtually attend including owners, operators, senior management, and board directors from the seniors’ living and care sector. The virtual space allows for attendees from across B.C. and beyond. Participation in this event will allow you to connect virtually with attendees.
Access to all sessions will give you firsthand insight into the issues and opportunities facing the sector.
COVID- 19 has hit our sector hard. This event will be a space for reflection, resilience building, and reinvention as we move forward. Your sponsorship and participation will make this possible.
