Digital Habitat : Connected Housing Days

The challenge

Digital Habitat brings together the players driving digital transformation in social housing every year. The event runs across two formats: an in-person day built around round tables, followed by a fully online day with 45 webinars. With a demanding audience (social housing providers, CIOs, and startups), the challenge is to deliver a smooth experience regardless of format, while keeping full control over the setup and maintaining flawless technical stability, even during peak attendance.

Workflow and solutions

Digitevent centralized the organization on a single platform: a dedicated website with a custom URL, registration forms tailored to each profile, and a mobile app bringing together the agenda, B2B matchmaking, and chat. Online sessions took place in integrated video conferencing rooms with advanced rights for moderators. Live polls, Q&A, and word clouds punctuated the talks. A Digitevent project manager supported the team ahead of the event, with an expert on-site on the day.

Results

The event brought together 1,123 attendees connected over the two days. The 45 webinars drew an average of 30 participants each, with peaks of 50 simultaneous connections on some sessions. Partners also praised the quality of the profiles they met and gave the platform a rating of 4.23/5 for its ease of use and the smoothness of the experience. Given these results, the partnership with Digitevent has been renewed for upcoming editions.
