The ECHO – Raise the Roof

You're invited to join our first Virtual “House” party on both nights of the Conference! Customize your own avatar. Play trivia in the conference hall. Network in a private or group conversation. Show off your best dance moves at the concert or drive a speedboat around the beach!

Once you are in, pick your avatar's outfit, and get familiar with the experience!

After registering for the conference, you should have received an email from 'The Echo' (invitation@virbela.com) that will ask you to register and download the platform you'll need to enjoy the party. You should have also received the download link in emails from the Ohio Housing Conference.

Note: To participate, you must download the application. Additionally, if your company's firewall blocks the installation of The Echo, you will need to contact your IT team for assistance or use a personal computer. If you have any additional questions, please email support@eventfarm.com.

Want to test how much random information you know? Stop by the conference hall for trivia at the times listed below!
