Less than a year after its creation, Fevexpo, the first Cuban platform for online events, incorporates new features for the next congresses and meetings that it will host.

The specialist reminded the press that Fevexpo is a solution implemented by Desoft with Odoo technology, as part of its development strategy.

It proposes the creation of personalized websites with the client's own domain or subdomain of the entity integrated into the Information Technology and Communications Group and its design is adaptable from any device, whether PC, mobile or tablet, explained Nuñez Hernández.

With Fevexpo, its creators transferred the idea and operation of a professional event with pavilions to the virtual world, so that exhibitors can show interested parties their products, services and additional content online.

In the case of Informática 2022, the most important convention in the Antillean nation on information and communication technologies, the tool will support Stand Cuba, with innovative projects in the ICT sector.

Fevexpo: Cuban alternative to organize online events.

Resources for "distance" encounters are not exactly new. For example, in the middle of the 20th century there were schools that taught their classes by radio during various epidemics in Europe; while, in 1965, Grand Master Robert Bobby Fisher participated in the IV International Chess Tournament “Capablanca In Memoriam”, playing by teletype from New York. However, there is no doubt that the covid-19 pandemic has infinitely launched the value of tools to transfer all possible human activities to the digital sphere: from oral hearings in Courts of Justice to meetings of Heads of State.

Combining the above with the concepts of "technological sovereignty", "digital transformation" and others that are becoming more and more frequent in Cuba, it is not surprising that Fevexpo emerged from Desoft's "laboratories", the first Cuban platform for virtual event management It is a tool that not only allows you to hold a meeting, conference or exchange, but also provides an experience that is as close as possible to the way in which these types of activities take place in the physical universe. Let's see: Fevexpo arranges the organization of the event in three stages.

The first is the previous moment, in which it is called "Organization". In this segment, organizers can locate the mechanism for registration, information about the participants, speakers, etc., and any other relevant information. News can even be included, in order to communicate details of value to those who need or wish to participate. It is also the time to design your stand, if that is the case because it is an exhibition fair or other business event.

The virtual stand works in a similar way to the physical one: you can design its visuality and you will have the possibility of attaching information about your company and products, as well as linking it to your social networks. For now the stand is created based on predetermined templates, but in future versions of the product it will be possible to design it freely.
