EventsAIR (for large capacity, complex events) Discontinued (1st September 2024) EventsAIR (for large capacity, complex events) Discontinued What's Happening with EventsAir? Effective 1st September 2024, EventsAir will be discontinued. This decision has been made after a challenging planning session where it was decided that ISG will not be renewing the contract with EventsAir for next session. EventsAir was introduced in 2020 to support the running of large scale online events during the pandemic. Utilisation of the service has reduced considerably over the last two years, and after careful consideration, the difficult decision was made to focus our resources on supporting our other centrally supported services. How will I be supported with large, complex events? Our Online and Digital Events Service provides guidance about streaming platforms to deliver events (including hybrid) along with some governance matters. The current supported platforms for streaming events support event registration but do not extend to some more complex event features. However, after start of term 2024, our guidance will be extended to cover planning and delivery of large complex events, including: call for speakers, abstracts, posters, submissions exhibition and kiosk management signposting to free, economical or premium tools and services for large, complex events.
