About

The annual BOOS conference attracts around 100 orthopaedic oncology specialists from across the country. Generally, this event takes place face to face but like so many others switched to virtual in 2020. The event runs over one day.

Echo’s Involvement

Echo were tasked with finding the right platform for running the conference. We settled on using Zoom Webinar for the event with tech support from Big Purple Productions.

157 people registered to attend the event and 154 logged into the meeting which was an incredibly high portion of those who registered. The conference included pre-recorded presentations in order to help with timings and any connection issues however speakers were logged in live to answer questions after their presentation.
