Introduction
Events industry dealing with government programs is on a rise with new projects and infra ventures coming in daily. Over past few years government is becoming the highest spender in events for the purpose of PR and news creation. This need brings us to the burning question- what new products or services will be added to the list of standard protocol events to make them catch eye balls and news headlines.
Why government events & conferences need innovation (audience expectations, dignitary presence, media coverage).
Event industry in India is at constant rise with the expectations to be extravaganza increasing day by day. Plus, event is the marketing tool which creates news thus it’s in need of constant innovation. This makes the events like conferences or government programs in a need of new products for creating news.
How small changes can make a big impact.
A small change of course today starts a domino effect of changes making innovation part of the industry. The same thing is happening with events industry in India. The post covid era has given lot of small changes to the industry making it a changed industry today.
New Products / Ideas
1. AI-powered translation & captioning tools – for multi-lingual audiences.
With the tech bringing new dimensions to events, AI is helping with runtime translations and captions as the person speaks. This helps the content to be presented in multiple languages during the event making it more relevant for international and national conferences and government protocol events.
2. Smart registration kiosks & QR-based entry – seamless check-ins.
Online registrations have been part of the events before covid, but after 2020s, the smart registration kiosks have taken over with self-registration systems and QR based entries. These QR codes not only help the delegates in registrations but also help the organizers and the exhibition stalls to keep the track of the participants and footfall, making the whole experience at a runtime mode with smart data analysis
3. Drone-based live coverage – gives aerial views for both media & security.
Drones are another tool which has been added to the kitty of innovation post covid in events. Earlier drones were limited to usage, however, with the new types of ultra lite drones the application has increased drastically making it easier for teams to prepare intro videos, sky shots and public rally views. This has made the public event experience better. It has also helped in surveillance techniques and made the life of security for VVIP events like the PM and president of India.
4. Mobile charging stations (like CIS did for BNPL!) – underrated but high-value.
With the surge of technology in the country, everybody is carrying a phone with them which means that their batteries will be required to charge at some point or other. Having a charging setup not only helps the delegates but also provides a branding opportunity for organizers.
5. VIP experience zones – lounge, quick mobility, high-security design innovations.
With the onset of ready to use lounge sets and rooms, it has become easier to install the green rooms, meeting rooms, waiting lounges and pre-stage room for VIP government protocol events. It has decreased the setup time, cost and efforts for creating these rooms. Since these rooms are plug and play, they are just transported and plugged to use. They come with built-in AC units, lounge furniture and lights making they highly recommended element in VIP events.
Conclusion:
Innovation is no longer optional in conferences and VIP government events—it’s expected. From AI-driven tools to eco-friendly designs, every new product has the power to enhance guest experience and showcase professionalism. The future belongs to those who adapt early and deliver smarter, safer, and more engaging experiences.
