The Challenge
Planning a maiden event while delivering an experience that goes beyond just networking.
With such a momentous event being held for the first time in Tamil Nadu and on such a grand scale, expectations were sky-high. Umagine was touted to be one of the key initiatives in helping TN reach its trillion-dollar economy ambition. To this end, the Umagine team had three primary goals for the event: generating brand awareness, engaging attendees and driving revenue.
“ Having a strong event management tool to support a robust attendee experience is integral to the success of any event, especially when it's a first-time event. “

Manager, CII
As it was a first-time venture, much of the audience that Umagine hoped to attract didn't know what to expect from this new, large-scale, world-class conference. To ensure the best possible event experience, the organizers were on the look-out for a powerful event management tool for efficient multimedia planning, content sharing, and enhanced visibility.
The Solution
Leveraging AI to deliver a stronger event experience
Having encountered Premagic at a recent event, Kazhal recognized the potential that Premagic had.
"This event would be filled with innovators and tech whizzes. We needed tools to ensure that the event matched the vibe and tech-savviness of the audience. And what better way to do it than with AI?"
Choosing a platform that employed AI-powered face recognition was a deliberate choice for the team who were committed to delivering a strong event experience with no hiccups or delays. And Kazhal soon found that Premagic had more to offer than just photo delivery. He explained, "Finding effective ways to showcase our partners and sponsors is always a challenge. I found Premagic’s solution to bring value to these brands truly ingenious." He was also particularly impressed with the gallery's clean and seamless user interface.
“ I liked that there was no extra hassle for the audience having to download an app or log in anywhere to view their photos. Everything was just neatly and readily available on their WhatsApp. It's just brilliant! “
