Jun 04, 2024Question for all of you - what are some kinds of events that you've run in Mesh, or seen people run in Mesh? Or what kind of events do you think will be most successful in Mesh, and what events are best left in a regular Teams/gallery meeting?
- CA_CallahanJun 04, 2024Brass ContributorLearning events. Technical courses are supposed to have 12 or less people, so this is perfect. Single room. I do *many* sessions of teaching immersion in the immersive space/Mesh. This 16 person limit per instance is really rough. And the "internal users" only, of course. Like everyone else, I need more.
- GalenJun 04, 2024MCTThe meetings I've had the most success with Mesh or Immersive spaces are: 1. Team Building - There are no requirements to document anything - these are more team unification meetings to build relationships. 2. Presentations to a team where a presentation is included. (In the instances where I've done this, the teams have been no larger than 15, so I haven't tried this with a larger group - YET)

None so far. I've built an avatar as you've seen and I've poked around immersive spaces a bit. I'm trying to get the rest of RS&T to join me there for one of our regular bimonthly meetings, but no luck yet.

I also find it's difficult to get people to go into immersive platforms, though once I get them in, I often find that they fall in love with it (like some of you here 😄) I generally find I have to have a really compelling agenda to get them in, like "our leaders are speaking" or "It's a major cultural celebration" or "this will be a team-building experience" so there is a strong expectation they will be there.- CA_CallahanJun 04, 2024Brass ContributorAgreed. I also have to make sure they have avatars made beforehand. Otherwise they can be late to attend because they got distracted personalizing their avatar. LOL
