NexTech will work closely with CSN to build a one-of-a-kind virtual event for hundreds of clinicians, vendors and researchers

NexTech AR Solutions Corp (OTCQB:NEXCF) (CSE:NTAR) (FRA:N29) announced Tuesday that the Canadian Society of Nephrology (CSN) has chosen the company’s Virtual Experience Platform (VEP) to host its 2021 annual general meeting on May 10-13.

NexTech will work closely with CSN to build a one-of-a-kind virtual event for hundreds of clinicians, vendors and researchers, the company said, connecting them to the latest developments in the nephrology field. With NexTech’s VEP, attendees will have access to interactive demonstrations, virtual discussions and quality video streaming.

The two parties have worked together to create what NexTech calls several “get out of your seat” moments utilizing its augmented reality (AR) technology and developed custom partnership opportunities for CSN partners.

“We’re extremely proud to announce our partnership with the Canadian Society of Nephrology. Being able to use our Virtual Experience Platform to help co-create experiences for communities and solve the problems that may arise when planning large events is one of the key reasons we have created our virtual platform,” NexTech CEO Evan Gappelberg said in a statement.

The CSN is composed of physicians and scientists who work with those suffering from kidney disease and/or conduct research on kidneys and kidney disease. In addition to its overarching goal of advancing the care for those at risk for and impacted by the disease, CSN looks to share challenges and best practices within the field of kidney research.

“Medical and scientific meetings like the CSN’s Annual General Meeting are naturally hands-on and visual-heavy so our VEP is a perfect solution to deliver the wow factor to these attendees through captivating, interactive experiences powered by AR,” Gappelberg said. “Across all industries, it’s important that we continue to tap into our human potential by creating a meaningful and everlasting connection between companies, communities and individuals through augmented and virtual reality.”
