Virtual Conferences and Networking Events Never has it been so convenient or economical to attend a BICSI Virtual Conference & Exhibition or a Virtual ICT Forum/Region Meeting. At a Virtual Conference, attendees are treated to a simulated experience that captures both the feel and the content of an in-person conference. Technical and keynote presentations take place remotely, and the virtual Exhibit Hall is brought to life with interactive exhibit booths, featuring videos, product demonstrations, live chats, and downloadable content. BICSI vICT Forums allow individuals from within their Region or the other side of the world to meet online to watch exhibitor presentations and listen to technical sessions, all the while having the ability to chat with one another remotely.
