The social wall was a key element of our social media and engagement strategy throughout the conferences, providing an excellent collage of experiences throughout.

We were delighted with the use of Walls.io at our OECD Forum this year; displayed on the wall of the conference centre, it animated the space and encouraged participants to engage on social media.

We switched to Walls.io because we wanted a more aesthetic view of our social media posts across all of our brand properties. The feedback has been great as the layout of the content looks much better and is easier to read.

We had more than 9,000 page views for our Leader Day social wall. On the broadcast day, #CiscoBeat mentions on social media increased 107% from the previous month’s Cisco Beat.

I think the big benefit is that when our participants see the wall projected, it encourages them to engage more on social media. So it’s a bit of a carrot to get them to jump on Twitter or Instagram and participate because they see the wall projected. Participants want to see their images and contributions projected for everybody else to see. So I think for me as a comms person, that’s the biggest benefit of it. And then there’s the practical side, where it’s just a great way to combine all of our activity around the event and have a visual representation of that.

The more we use the wall, year after year, the more it becomes a staple of our ceremony. I just want to continue to show how much engagement we’re getting and all the fun ways it can involve parents, families, and students. And it really gets people excited to see themselves up on the screen.
