We have the resources and capabilities to ensure a high-quality audio and video experience whether you need to webcast your live event or have a completely virtual event.
Webcasts are presentations/events distributed over the Internet using streaming media technology to distribute a single content source to many simultaneous listeners/viewers. A webcast can be either live or on demand. Webcasting is "broadcasting" over the Internet.
Virtual event software (platform) is a tool that allows you to create an online event experience with live or recorded sessions and the ability to interact with other “attendees” virtually.
We have experience with a wide variety of live streaming services and platforms and can incorporate any of them into our virtual event system.
If you require a completely virtual event, we have complete studios with multiple set options located at our office in North Toronto.
If you can’t make it to our studios, we can host your webcast at a venue of your choice or remotely using one of our permanent control rooms.
We can also develop graphics and virtual environments for your meeting and manage content and presenters both in-person or remote.
We bring the same level of service and quality you’re used to with your live events to your remote meetings.

We know the events of today require flexibility when it comes to platform support. From basic to complex we have a multitude of options available to you.
Check out our Tips on selecting the event platform that's right for you.
Your event requires technical support to help ensure success. We offer permanent (our place) and remote (yours) control rooms to broadcast and manage your live, virtual and hybrid events.
Whether you need to webcast your live event or have a completely virtual event we have the resources and capabilities to ensure a high-quality remote meeting experience for all your attendees.
We also offer versatile studios to elevate any virtual presentation.
We have an ideal mix of experienced engineers, specialists, and technical directors that successfully execute projects from the simple and small to the large and complex with the same level of precision and attention to detail.
Every member of our dedicated team bring a diverse background, skill-set and knowledge base, to assist in each process of producing an event.
You can count on our team to be there when it matters most.
Whether in our studio space or in a venue, we are committed to providing a safe workplace for all team members, customers, and business partners.
In keeping with industry recommendations, our team members are required to follow the suggested guidelines with regard to general hygiene and the disinfecting of equipment between events.
Our detailed measures include:
Prior to your event start and strike, our technical team will use approved cleaners /disinfectants to clean all high-touch areas of equipment. A technician will meet a member of the client team in room prior to doors, make introduction, test equipment and verify cleaning.
All team members will comply with local guidelines pertaining to PPE use and distancing. This includes, but not limited to:
When handling equipment and cases, contact points will be cleaned using appropriate cleaners / disinfectants to include pushing / lifting points and handles.
Our technician will leave a cleaning verification card with their name, signature, and date / time the cleaning was completed (~1 hour prior to event start).
Our event space(s) include a private entrance, separate washrooms, several green rooms if required, and an onsite PPE concierge should you so choose.
*Should your event require a more enhanced cleaning solution, simply let us know.
From a simple live stream to a complex and secure webcast we can adapt based on the requirements. We know organizations thrive when you can communicate professionally and effectively. Whether it’s a companywide Town hall, a product launch, education session or corporate event, we can provide a professional and seamless experience for you and your audience.
“Last night’s virtual Canadian Event Awards gala, powered by bb Blanc and produced in their spectacular studio was without a doubt one of the most powerful moments in the history of Canadian Special Events. The technical execution was flawless, and the audience response has been overwhelmingly positive."
