Revolutionizing University Open Days: MJD Pro Group’s Virtual Triumph for NTU Open House 2022

The Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Open House is an eagerly anticipated event, offering prospective students a glimpse into the vibrant campus life, cutting-edge facilities, and academic opportunities that define one of Asia’s leading universities. In 2022, faced with the unique challenges of a global landscape still navigating the complexities of post-pandemic recovery, NTU sought a partner capable of transcending traditional event boundaries to connect with its future students. MJD Pro Group was honoured to be selected for this task, delivering a pioneering solution that redefined the open house experience.

A Metaverse Platform: Bridging the Virtual Divide

At the core of our comprehensive solution was the development of a bespoke metaverse platform, designed to replicate the immersive and interactive experience of a physical campus tour. This virtual environment enabled attendees to explore the NTU campus in a dynamic 3D space, from the iconic Hive building to the state-of-the-art learning facilities and lush green spaces. Participants could navigate the campus, interact with faculty and student representatives, and engage in live Q&A sessions, all from the comfort and safety of their homes.

Live Stream Services: Bringing NTU to the World

Complementing the metaverse experience, our live stream services ensured that every keynote speech, departmental presentation, and student-led panel was broadcast with flawless clarity and professional production values. This allowed for real-time engagement and ensured that attendees, regardless of their geographical location, could participate in the open house as if they were physically present. Our multi-camera setups and interactive features, such as live polling and chat functions, fostered a sense of community and interaction among virtual attendees.

Comprehensive Event Management: A Seamless Experience

Managing a virtual event of this scale required meticulous planning and coordination. Our comprehensive event management approach covered all aspects of the open house, from technical rehearsals and content creation to user support and analytics. We worked closely with NTU’s departments and student organizations to curate content that was engaging, informative, and reflective of the university’s diverse academic and extracurricular landscape. Our team ensured that the transition between different segments of the event was seamless, maintaining high levels of participant engagement throughout the day.
