Hybrid event: the Finland - Hong Kong Trade Association

A hybrid event in a huge setting.

A hybrid event is effectively two events at the same time.

One event will take place on-site and the other online. Both need to work equally well.

The Finland-Hong Kong Trade Association organises an annual expert event that brings together Finnish and international players to discuss the Hong Kong and Asian markets. The event is organised in a hybrid format, allowing participants to follow the programme both on-site and online.

Solid Stream has acted as the event's live production partner for several years, responsible for the technical implementation of the hybrid event, live broadcasting and event videos.

Event

The 2026 event took place in
NH Collection Helsinki Grand Hansa
-at
In the centre of Helsinki.

On the spot, the event was attended by around 150-200 guests, and the content was also broadcast live online.

The programme included:

  • Expert advice
  • Panel discussion
  • International speakers
  • Business examples from the Hong Kong market


The hybrid event allowed the content to reach audiences both on-site and online.

A technical perspective.
The event featured a large number of speakers.

Implementation of hybrid production

The hybrid event was implemented as a two-space solution.

The programme in the main hall was filmed and broadcast live online and to another room in the hotel, where some participants were able to follow the event live.

This allowed the event to be extended to more venues without compromising the participant experience.

When planned correctly, hybrid production makes an event work seamlessly both on-site and online.

Production by Solid Stream

Solid Stream responded to the event live production, AV production and video production.

The production included, among other things:

    • Event at the implementation of the live broadcast
    • Multi-camera production about the event
    • Combining presentation materials into a broadcast
    • The implementation of the viewing page and the streaming platform
    • Event at aftermovie video
    • Someklipit about the event

Aftermovie as part of event marketing

The aftermovie was filmed during the event by a separate photographer to capture the atmosphere of the event for marketing purposes.

The aftermovie produced after the event will be an important part of the marketing of next year's event.

A short video brings together the atmosphere of the event, the speakers and the audience, and is used for example in social media and event communication.

A well-executed event video helps build continuity from one event to the next.

Panel discussion in full swing.

Result

The live production of the hybrid event allowed the event to reach audiences both on-site and online without technical disruption.

When live production works well:

  • Transmission works reliably
  • The event looks professional
  • Audiences focus on content, not technology


Solid Stream acts as a production partner for the event, allowing organisers to focus on what matters most -
content and audience.
