“Virtual Approval helped us transform our annual meeting for over 150 senior business and investment leaders into an interactive webinar with keynote speakers, breakout discussions and a forum for feedback discussion. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner. Rachel and the team created the perfect format, choreographed the discussion superbly and created an impactful series of post event videos for our website. The team at Virtual Approval is outstanding.”

"We engaged Virtual Approval to act in the role of administrator for the first-ever virtual trial in the Business and Property Courts. Rachel worked with us to organise, research, arrange and manage the secure registration of people to attend, the daily viewing and recording, and liaison with the transcription service. It is hard to overstate what a fantastic service Rachel and her company provided.”

"Rachel and her amazing team assisted us in facilitating a business networking dinner and they were truly exceptional. I would not hesitate in recommending Rachel and her colleagues. In the run up to the event nothing was too much trouble, and they shared great ideas and suggestions based on their successes from previous event experiences. On the night, they were super organised, cool, calm, collected. The feedback we had from guests was first class. For all of our upcoming event needs, Rachel and her team will be my first port of call."

"Saved our home and lives. 1st online High Court case (technology and construction) managed in a very professional manner without a glitch. if it was not for Rachel's input and management, the courts would not have been confident of the platform and our family would have been bullied and forced into bankruptcy by the council. Can't recommend the company highly enough. Thanks Rachel"

"Virtual Approval has made coordinating our virtual sessions a breeze! I have worked with their team on the operations/logistics side, when we needed a broader team to support our virtual offerings. Virtual Approval came in with a fully drawn-out process, they assigned multiple producers with time zone coverage across the world, helped us set up trainings with our facilitators, and then trained new team members on their own without our help once they knew the ropes. They are transparent and reasonable with their rates, and are so easy to work with!"

Rachel and her team have been there to support our virtual and hybrid needs over the past 2 years, providing us not only with excellence service, but with support and guidance whenever we need it. We have collaborated to build a seamless working relationship with open and honest communication at the heart of it. They are organised, solution-focused and professional. No matter what the challenge is, the team has produced innovative solutions often with short notice. I couldn’t recommend Virtual Approval highly enough!"

"Virtual Approval are an extremely professional organisation. Rachel, Chris and the team were very responsive to our initial enquiries, their documentation and contracting was simple and straightforward so made a stressful situation with difficult time constraints, easy to navigate. Their team of producers are all reliable, well-prepared and help above and beyond the requirements on paper, going the extra mile for the facilitators and client. A delight to work with and asset to any team!"

"Rachel and her team at Virtual Approval did a stellar job supporting our virtual summit delivered on the Zoom platform. The three-hour event required coordinating over a dozen speakers and multiple session formats.

"The Annual Meeting is the BSH’s flagship hybrid event of the year, with over 700 delegates in person and more than 300 online. The event brings together medical professionals, patients and exhibitors all with an interest in Heart Failure, across the two days there are a range of sessions including plenary sessions, masterclasses and sponsored symposia. This year’s event was a huge success, and this would not have been possible without VA’s valuable contributions. Virtual Approval exceeded our expectations in the run up to our event and on the day, they listened to all our bespoke requests, and they made every effort to accommodate everything we asked for. They were organised, prepared, and reassuring throughout the process and were pivotal to making our most important event of the year a success. The Chair of BSH said “The VA team were calm, professional, unobtrusive and extremely efficient. This was my best experience with an events company to date and I have no hesitation in recommending the VA team to others."

Earth Day…but make it practical 🌍
Sustainability in events isn’t a buzzword for us, it’s built into the way we design and deliver every project.
A few things we’re already doing (and pushing clients towards more of):
• Plantable badges – yes, actual badges with seeds embedded, so they don’t end up in landfill… they end up as wildflowers 🌱
• Event apps over printed programmes – live agendas, speaker info, updates… no reprints, no waste.
• Hybrid + virtual access – giving people the option to join from anywhere = fewer flights, lower carbon footprint, bigger reach.
• Digital sponsor/exhibitor packs – QR codes, apps, and platforms instead of piles of paper that get left behind.
• Smarter content design – capturing sessions properly so they live on after the event (more value, less need to recreate).
You don’t have to compromise creativity to be sustainable, the best events do both.
If anything, constraints like this make the experience sharper, more intentional, and more engaging.
What’s one small change you’ve seen make a big difference?
#EarthDay #SustainableEvents #EventTech #HybridEvents #EventProfs
Sometimes the real value of an event partner isn’t in the plan… it’s in the pivot.
Mid-event, we got a message:
A surprise band was on the way, and they needed full AV support.
For most teams, that means more cost, crew, and complexity. Not for us.
We’re not just event managers, we’re technical at our core. So we adapted in real time:
- Reworked the plan.
- Integrated seamlessly.
- Deployed our own kit.
- Took on soundcheck & show operation.
- Delivered through to the final note.
The result?
A high-energy afterparty with zero added stress or cost to the client.
Because, we don’t just manage events, we bring the tech, the backup, and the expertise to run the show.
That’s the difference!
Drop us a message if you want a partner who can do the same, we’d love to elevate your next event.

Webinars are more than presentations, they’re opportunities to engage, inspire, and connect audiences across the globe.
With interactive polls, live chat visuals, and breakout sessions, you can make every participant feel seen, heard, and part of the conversation.

“Events aren’t just planned, they’re powered by people.”
Fresh from the latest BSH MDT event, it’s our team behind the scenes who keep ideas moving, evolving workflows, solving challenges in real time, and adding the human spark that no AI can replace.
Because when people come together, creativity naturally thrives.

April is Stress Awareness Month and, we’re all about finding the calm in the chaos!
We know creativity and innovation thrives when teams feel supported. When workflows are smooth and communication is clear, it gives everyone the headspace to do their best work.
Here are some of our best stress-saving trips…
- Keep everything in one place.
We centralise approvals and feedback (we love monday.com) so nothing gets lost.
- Communicate with clarity.
Slack keeps our conversations quick, focused, and easy to follow.
- Set realistic timelines.
Clear expectations that actually work for the team = less pressure, better results.
- Automate where you can.
Less repetition, more time for creative thinking.
- Protect focus time.
Our weekly catch-ups keep us connected, but we also make space for uninterrupted creativity.
What works best for you and your team? Drop your stress saving tips below…

Most online workshops fall short for one simple reason:
the facilitator is trying to do four jobs at once.
• Facilitator
• Tech producer
• Chat moderator
• Breakout room manager
Sound familiar?
When you`re delivering an in-depth session, your focus should be on the content and the attendee experience, not troubleshooting audio or launching breakout rooms.
That’s where we come in.
Your event or workshop might be happening across multiple locations, but our technical team is with you every step of the way, making sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
So you can focus on delivering the session.
And your audience can focus on the learning.
No juggling. Just a seamless experience (and some purple sparkle).
