The Global Virtual Event market can be divided into four segments of Collaboration Software, Unified Communication and Video Conferencing, Web Conferencing and Social Networking.

 
Popularly known as the online exhibitions or online marketplaces, the virtual events market that includes video conferencing, web conferencing, collaboration tools, communication and social networking, is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 21.55% over the period of 2013-2018. Extensively used in Healthcare, finance and banking, hospitality and education sectors, with virtual events one can offer informational opportunities to both the attendees and the respondents. Usually they are used to launch a product, train, provide new information or even get to the vendors.

The increased global convergence of information is one of the major factors that are driving the growth of the market. Due to rapid globalization, various enterprises are extending their businesses in vast geographical locations. This further increases the demand for a facility that will enable information sharing and seamless communication. The communication here is facilitated by messages, calls, video conferencing, face to face meetings, online chat, and therefore reduces the need for meeting face to face at a physical location.
