About the vExpo

vExpo is a virtual event platform product developed in-house by the Innovation Services team of the Canada School of Public Service (CSPS) Digital Academy. This event portal aims to enhance the participants’ experience by providing access to all event information from one central location, while making it engaging and easy to use. Participants can navigate a virtual lobby and browse through the agenda, speakers biographies, live presentations as well as an exhibit area that showcases virtual kiosks where event partners can promote and share information on their products and services.

This innovation project was launched following the shift to virtual events as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The first iteration of the product was first used at an event in June 2020, and as since continued to evolve. While vExpo continues to be used for large virtual events (i.e. conferences), work continues to iterate on the product, leveraging and experimenting with modern and immersive technologies to bring new features and experiences to virtual events.
