L14 - A virtual Exhibition

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.
