Challenges

Smarsh, a global leader in digital communications compliance, organizes high-level, invite-only events like Smarsh EDGE and Smarsh Connect to engage senior executives from leading financial institutions. These experiences combine thought leadership, in-depth industry insights, and peer networking in premium settings such as The Edge in New York City.

To set the bar, Smarsh needed an event platform for end-to-end execution with precision, reliability, and real-time responsiveness without any friction for attendees or organizers.

Key challenges included

  • Every arrival touchpoint had to protect the premium standard of Smarsh’s invite-only leadership events..
  • Slow check-in risked visible lines, delayed executive guests, and added pressure on the onsite team.
  • Multi-track programming made relevant sessions harder to find without clear attendee direction.
  • Unclear agenda, session, or speaker details disrupted attendee movement during a live multi-session program.
  • Onsite issues pulled the Smarsh team away from hosting, networking, and executive engagement.

Solutions

Eventcombo equipped Smarsh with a unified platform and onsite support model that addressed every operational and attendee-facing requirement across both events.

Key features included

  • Onsite Badging and Badge Design: Managed the entire badging process, from creative design to printing and onsite distribution. Each badge reflected Smarsh’s corporate branding, giving attendees a professional, cohesive experience from the moment they arrived.
  • EntryPilot Kiosk App: Deployed the EntryPilot Kiosk App to deliver an efficient, high-touch check-in experience. Guests could self-check-in and instantly print their badges, reducing queues and minimizing manual verification.
  • Attendee Event App: Designed a fully branded mobile app that gave attendees access to personalized agendas, session schedules, and speaker profiles. Real-time notifications kept everyone updated about changes and sessions, all within one intuitive interface.
  • Customized Session Management: Enabled the Smarsh team to design and manage a multi-track agenda using Eventcombo’s session management tools. Each attendee viewed sessions relevant to their role or area of interest, keeping the experience organized and engaging.
  • Dedicated Onsite Support: Deployed technical and operational support teams throughout the event to ensure flawless execution. The onsite staff handled check-ins, troubleshooting, and live coordination so the Smarsh team could focus on hosting and engagement.
