As the world continues to adapt to "new normal” and ongoing travel limitations brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic, meeting and event organizers can now choose to offer virtual participation options and hybrid formats that allow for small local gatherings, while also broadcasting to remote attendees and satellite locations.

Tim Cordon, Area Senior Vice President, Middle East, and Africa, Radisson Hotel Group, said: "We are thrilled to announce the launch of our Hybrid Meeting Solutions, which directly addresses some of the meeting and event challenges the pandemic has created globally.

With the various government-imposed restrictions, traveling to meet in person has become somewhat impossible. However, as a hotel group with hospitality at its core, we certainly understand the importance of connections and the need to adapt and exercise flexibility, which has led to the creation and introduction of Hybrid Solutions.”   

Radisson Hotel Group has partnered with Zoom, the leader in modern enterprise video communication, to provide a smooth experience for their clients’ virtual and hybrid meetings and events.

Specialist in-house event teams will assist clients in delivering a range of events from hybrid multi-site meetings to broadcasting events, ensuring events are efficient, effective, and engaging, with flawless execution and no audio / visual problems. 

Hybrid Rooms perfectly combine the facilities of a state-of-the-art office with the comforts of a superior hotel room to create a productive, dedicated, and quiet workspace for the business traveler, leisure guest, and local day-guest alike.

Hybrid Rooms offer easy connectivity to second-screen devices, video-conferencing facilities, wireless-enabled keyboard, mouse and loudspeaker, printing services, stationery, unlimited coffee and tea, access to on-site wellness facilities, and many other benefits.

The roll-out will continue through 2020 and 2021.
