A webcast is a live-streamed or pre-recorded virtual event, which enables companies to share audio and video content to large audiences across the world.

• A webcast is a one-way audio-visual presentation to large groups of attendees. It can be streamed live or pre-recorded, so the audience can view it in real-time or on demand. The speaker and audience can ask and answer questions via chat.
• Webinars are two-way live, interactive meetings hosted to an online audience. The meeting host, speakers and audience can speak to each other on the call. They can also interact via chat and respond to polls and surveys.

There are many reasons why your company might need to host a webcast, for example:

• All Hands Company Updates
• Messages from Executive Leadership to Employees
• Large Townhalls to a Global Workforce
• Virtual Tradeshows and Conferences
• Marketing and Lead Generation Events
• Corporate Communications
• Investor Relations
• Onboarding and Training New Employees
• Disaster/Pandemic Planning
• Business Continuity
