[PrasadVR]

Hello Dear LG friends,

We thank you for your active participation during this meet-up on Challenges and Best Practices of Hybrid Meet-ups. We were total 18 in numbers including two Connect Moderators and the hosts;

Connect Moderator @NareshDarji , Connect Moderator @TusharSuradkar , Meet-up Champion @TravellerG, @MonilSuthar, @MathanVibranarayan, @RaviSharma111, @SarathUpendran, @Gouri.PS, @PrinceKumar, @SoloTraveller, @ShreyaMusings, @Ssiddharth2000, @shaileno, @AjitThite, @Rakshith_LG, @K.K.Sharma, @PrasadVR, @Kumaarsantosh.

This meet-up was planned, organized, and conducted jointly by PrasadVR and Kumaarsantosh.

Santosh welcomed the participants and invited all participants to introduce themselves. He further emphasized on the objective:

@Kumaarsantosh

The key objective is to Care and Share the experiences.

Thank you @PrasadVR for the follow ups and coming up with the great design.

We are looking forward to Participative approach than on Prescriptive approach and hence request you all to share your experiences which will become the guiding factor for the rest.

PrasadVR took the participants though the slide presentation covering the details about Hybrid Meet-up. He covered in details what is Hybrid Meet-up, why it is required to have and how to organize and execute such meet-ups.

PrasadVR explained the challenges and suggested best practices to follow while conducting Hybrid meet-ups.

We also suggested to have a useful checklist while planning for the Hybrid meet-ups including but not limited to carrying useful gazettes and having a host partner (recommended).

TravellerG also echoed on Host partner aspect and emphasized on the promotion of meet-ups to have good attendance during the Hybrid meet-ups.

The forum was open for discussion and seeking inputs. It was discussed that why the meet-ups need to be planned in advance.

Meet-ups should be considered as formal event and not an ad-hoc activity.

Once again, I (Prasad VR) and @kumaarsantosh would like to extend our sincere gratitude to spend time with us for discussing the challenges and best practices. It was indeed a great learning session for all of us.

Thanks,

[TusharSuradkar]
