Meeting techniques

Meeting technology has many similarities with conference technology, but on a smaller scale. One difference between meeting technology and conference technology can often be that in meetings, sound is more important than image. Sound needs to be good in both directions during meetings, unlike conferences where it is often more important that the sound is good from the presenter, but it is not as important that the participants are heard well.

Sound is the basis of good meeting technology

For meetings or smaller conferences where discussion is the focus, the most important thing can often be the sound. Both the sound in terms of what is picked up in the room and passed on to participants elsewhere, but also their sound to be heard in the meeting room. But there are more things that matter.

Simplicity in the meeting

Participants need to feel that it is easy to join the meeting. Simplicity makes the first impression better and participants feel more welcome than if you have to start the meeting being annoyed that the meeting technology is too complicated to get right.

A face for the voice

During a meeting, it is also important that participants can see who is speaking and put a face to the voice. This means that the tool used needs to go with the sound and show who is speaking.

Meeting techniques with presentation

Many times, presentations are also a major part of meetings. In this case, the presenter must ensure that everyone present can see what is being presented.

Conference technology

The memorable conference today often includes a lot of technology. A presentation that will engage and reach the participants needs good speakers and a good monitor that is adapted to the number of participants at the conference. The larger the conference, the more technology is needed to reach and include all participants. This can include sound, lighting and teleconferencing equipment.

Konferensteknik med bildvisning

Slide show for small and large conferences

It is now standard to show either images or moving material during a conference. Some kind of screen is therefore a staple in our range of conference technology. Centas has screens of all sizes, full LED walls and projectors with associated projector screens. The choice of screen depends on how many people are participating and what is to be shown. Moving images, for example, require more than a standard PowerPoint presentation. It also matters a lot how dark the room is, for example LED screens can handle brighter rooms better than a projector.

Conference equipment

Sound – an integral part of conference technology

If the conference has many participants, the sound needs to reach further and then speakers, microphones and headmics (headworn microphone) are an obvious part of the conference technology package. If someone is going to be in focus for a long time, it is convenient to have a headmic that the person can attach to themselves, so that they do not have to hold a microphone for several hours. If many different people are to be involved in the presentation for short periods, however, microphones are more flexible as they can be handed over from one person to the next.

Ljus viktig del i konferenstekniken

Light – more important than many think

Sitting for several hours and not really seeing the people giving a presentation drastically reduces engagement. Event lighting is more important than many people think during a conference. Even for smaller conferences, it’s important to ensure that both sound and light have been adjusted so that participants have good conditions to understand what is being said and absorb the message.

Konferensteknik för video och telefon

Video and telephone conferencing technology

Many conferences have participants who attend from a different location. Our professional video or teleconferencing technology allows participants to both hear what is being said on site and make their voice heard to be an active party during the conference.

Smartboard

Smartboards – interactive conference technology

For a truly professional presentation, conference or meeting, we have smartboards that have all the technology built in and therefore do not need to be connected to a computer. It suits the interactive presentation that is adapted based on how the conference proceeds and where the participants’ involvement and participation shape the content.

Conference technology Stockholm

Centas is located in Stockholm but works all over Sweden. If you want to pick up the conference technology you have rented yourself, you will of course find it easier to pick it up if the company or conference is to be held in Stockholm. If you are at a longer distance from us and our warehouse, we will help you with the delivery of the conference technology. We have solved technology for conferences on the other side of the world, so making sure to ship it somewhere in Sweden we see no problem with.
