LOS ANGELES — XBIZ is pleased to announce plans for its flagship January event series, the XBIZ Show, kicking off 2021 with its most expansive virtual edition yet, slated for Jan. 11-14.
Culminating with the adult industry’s biggest night, the 2021 XBIZ Awards, the upcoming edition of the annual trade show marks the third virtual event series held by XBIZ due to the ongoing COVID-related restrictions.
Building upon the momentum of this year’s virtual XBIZ Miami and upcoming XBIZ Berlin events, the 2021 XBIZ Show will not only embrace today’s “new normal” — it will redefine it.
Combining the most comprehensive conference program with a lineup of special events, just as its in-person editions do, the XBIZ Show will deliver “the next best thing to being there” experience to industry pros and newcomer entrepreneurs seeking to gain new knowledge and business in 2021.
“Since the onset of the pandemic, XBIZ has raised the bar for virtual events by leveraging the leading edge of technology and design, with the overarching mission to unite the adult industry on a global level,” XBIZ Founder and Publisher Alec Helmy said. “While we await the return of in-person events, you can count on us to find new and creative ways to bridge the gap between virtual and physical events.”
The 2021 XBIZ Show will connect attendees from all corners of the world via interactive videoconferencing, enabling participants to join timely discussions and get “face time” with one another regardless of their geographic location.
“As we continue to adapt to the pandemic, people are finding unique benefits to virtual events — including more focused interactions and increased productivity, not to mention zero travel cost,” XBIZ Events Director Moe Helmy explained. “While we all miss the camaraderie of in-person events, the business benefits of virtual events are very much real and quantifiable, and we look forward to elevating the experience for all.”
On the awards front, the virtual edition of the 2021 XBIZ Awards, presented by MyFreeCams, will be broadcast live worldwide via XBIZ.tv on Jan. 14. In addition, the annual XBIZ Honors will recognize the year’s top XBIZ Exec Awards nominees and feature select award categories from the 2021 XBIZ Awards.
