My Week On-site

A lot of work goes into making sure attendees have a flawless experience, but what does that really mean? Hi! My name is Emily Greagori, I am a technical project manager at BW Events Tech and last week I went on-site to support Oracle World 2023 and Oracle Health Conference.

About 30 of us from BW were there in person helping with all things event tech. Check out below to see just what having BW Events Tech on-site for your team.
