The sessions, which all offer structured CPD, allows viewers to interact with presenters and other delegates, attend the virtual exhibition centre for shorter briefings and a ‘live chat’ facility for any questions following the event.

The group’s flagship learning and development events, protection roadshows and investment advice events are all available to book now, with each offering multiple dates throughout May, June and July.

Additional events, including mortgage workshops, best practice and business evolution events and specialist technology and soft skills training sessions, will be added to the platform on a weekly basis.

Richard Ardron, marketing director of The SimplyBiz Group, said: “We worked hard to ensure that our virtual event experience captured as many of the benefits of face-to-face events as possible, in addition to watching the presentations; networking with other delegates, visiting the exhibition area, the ability to interact with our expert presenters and pose any questions about the session.

“We have moved very quickly, and invested where necessary, to enhance our support at this time and, as part of this support, we have moved the largest event programme of its kind onto a brand-new virtual platform.”

“Two weeks ago, The SimplyBiz Group launched its additional support package for advisers, which offers members help in seven key areas including maintaining cashflow with a payment holiday from the group, and support with mental health and diversifying income streams.”
