The first virtual "Global Orchid Event" will definitely go down in history as one of the most memorable. It was quite impressive that moving around on the screen to meet people virtually like you're walking towards them in the venue.

I'd like to share a few comments I've received from people who experienced this smart event, while we were having a chat with them at the "Orchid Bar" on the platform.

"I've attended many virtual events during the pandemic but this one was an excellent execution!"
Marc Boria - CosMic Plants Canada

'It's my first time and I really enjoyed it. Thanks to organizers!"
Martin De Deyne- GearBox Innovations

"This might be a very interesting platform for the future. This time it's dedicated to orchids but we could do this for roses, vegetables or whatever you like. This is so far the platform that's been the closest way to real physical meeting, as you're able sit next to each other, listen to each other."
Ed Smit - Jungle Talks
