    Live poll

    A live poll is a real-time audience vote during a session, used to increase engagement and collect instant feedback.

    Live polls collect instant audience votes during a session. They boost engagement, surface opinions for speakers and provide data points for post-event reports.

    What live poll means in practice

    Remote delivery adds access control, stream quality, interaction tools and attendance reporting that onsite-only events can skip. Teams plan how virtual participants register, join, interact and receive follow-up content after the live window.

    Why live poll matters

    Teams struggle when they treat digital delivery as a last-minute stream link. Virtual and hybrid participants need the same intentionality as onsite guests in access, moderation and follow-up.

    • Mobile apps show results on screen in real time
    • Anonymous votes encourage honest feedback in large rooms
    • Export feeds content planning and sponsor decks

    Typical live poll setups at B2B events

    • One registration path with ticket types for onsite, virtual or both
