Equal opportunities for every child
In early March, we celebrated a special milestone at Het Timmerhuis in Rotterdam: the 10th edition of the Rotterdam City Dictation. This event, which highlights and promotes the power of language, is a perfect example of a successful hybrid event in which physical and online elements come together.

At Valo, we believe that all children should have equal opportunities in education and in society. That is why we consider projects like the City Dictation important and are happy to support them.
We are also proud of our collaboration with the Gelijke Kansen Alliantie (Equal Opportunities Alliance), an initiative of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, in which we did our part to promote a level playing field for all students.
The power of hybrid event organization
The hybrid setup of the City Dictation made the event accessible and inclusive, demonstrating how effective hybrid events can be. With 45 first-year secondary school students physically present and an equal number online, this approach offers an excellent way to reach a broader audience.

Audiovisual support at the event
As AV partner, Valo provided extensive audiovisual support, offering an optimal experience to participants both in the room and online. Our services included audio reinforcement in the room, smooth video streaming and the seamless integration of communication technologies such as Microsoft Teams.
