Digitalizing an exhibition - how does that work?

Digitalsunray offers turnkey solutions as a full service agency. This also convinced 2020 the AK Vienna and so the portal for the L14 AK Education and Vocational Information Fair for Young People was created.

For many years, the AK Vienna has been organizing the L14 together with the Vienna Education Authority. A fair for young people to get an answer to the question "Where to with 14?". Do I go to school? Is an apprenticeship the right thing? What interests me? What options do I have? All this should be addressed at this fair.

Covid-19 has also cast its shadows here. And so the AK Vienna decided to move the fair into the digital space. Digitalsunray has developed a concept that fits the target group and offers the AK Vienna a framework to present all relevant information about the topic of training and employment.

The digital L14 city offers information on training paths, personal strengths and career perspectives in different districts. In addition to exhibitors, information videos and a route planner based on the interests of the students, there is also

Digitalsunray as Solution Provider and Partner

At first, the task was to bring a well established and tested exhibition into the virtual space. The teachers and supervisors of the exhibition already knew the process from previous years. Now it was time to excite all stakeholders for the new digital exhibition format.

The Concept and Functions

Our design team therefore created an environment that is familiar to many young people. A virtual city. This concept fits very well with the urban lifestyle of young people and gives AK Wien the opportunity to group content according to topics. In every district of the city there are buildings that serve as virtual stands for exhibitors and information videos. Based on their interests the route planner leads the young users through the city. The integration of a chat service rounds off the virtual experience and with a bookmark feature where one can remember individual blocks of text or videos, relevant information is kept after the exhibition.

Information and Support for the Target Groups

The highlights of the virtual city were prepared in a crisp way by our designers in an animated explainer video and gave a preview of the digital exhibition portal.

The implementation of a CMS specifically adapted for the virtual exhibition enabled the AK Wien content managers to enter all information themselves and manage and support the entire process of class and student registration. This way, an environment was created that addressed all stakeholders in an optimal way.

Challenge

Zöchling is a group of companies with a diverse range of business focuses. More than 450 people - with and without stationary PCs - need
to be supported in their daily work and provided with information. The information transfer should be achieved through an intranet solution as a knowledge storage facility.

Social Intranet Approach

Classic intranet solutions usually have the same problem. Information cemeteries are created that are filled once but are very difficult to maintain. The use is then limited to the PDF organizational chart and department profiles. There is no process or communication support.

Digitalsunray already has experience with the introduction of Web 2.0 concepts for internal organizational communication and has developed a concept for Zöchling that uses the advantages of these approaches for the company.

The social intranet is based on the HumHub platform and was specially adapted for the Zöchling group of companies. This solution is intended to improve communication and knowledge exchange within the company.

The goal is to create a central platform where employees can share information, discuss and collaborate. This is intended to avoid the problem of information graveyards. A place of communication for all employees. Moving away from a pure information push concept to an information pull approach. This makes the use and maintenance of the intranet easier.

Conclusion

We adapted the open source social intranet platform to the needs of the Zöchling group of companies and developed independent modules with our development team in order to elegantly digitize certain processes. Because the requirements across individual companies are broad. The distribution of information and knowledge transfer is at the heart of this, which is open to all employees and thus enables a new type of collaboration.
