Hosted by Advantage President & CEO Jonathan Hodge with 1st90 Co-Founders Paul Middleton and Mike Heslin
Summary
The event focuses on the introduction of Comet, an AI-powered platform developed by 1st90 to enhance post-event engagement and learning. The platform aims to address key challenges in learning and development, including the forgetting curve, the gap between knowing and doing, and measuring the ROI of live events. Comet integrates micro-lessons, action prompts, peer support, and gamification to reinforce content and drive behavior change after live events, such as training programs, leadership off-sites, and sales kickoffs. The speakers emphasize how Comet provides a scalable, cost-effective solution that fosters sustained engagement and measurable outcomes, with real-time analytics to track progress. Attendees also discuss how Comet could be applied to various live event settings and learning journeys.
Key points
- Comet addresses key learning challenges: The platform is designed to solve the forgetting curve, knowing-doing gap, and the challenge of measuring ROI from live events by reinforcing key content, encouraging practical application, and tracking engagement over time.
