Internet & platform
This is the single biggest risk. Confirm it early.
- Check the venue's actual upload speed — not the advertised one
- Plan a wired connection where possible; have a 4G/5G bonded backup for critical streams
- Decide the platform(s): YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Zoom or a private player
- Confirm who owns the streaming account and access before the day
Cameras, audio & visuals
A stable single camera beats three cameras you can't manage. Scale to the event.
- Single camera for a simple talk; multi-camera + switcher for panels and stage
- Clean audio from the venue desk — the audience forgives bad video, not bad sound
- Slides / lower-thirds: confirm the deck and how it cuts into the stream
- Decide if you need a recording for highlights afterwards
Rehearse the risky parts
For multi-speaker, multi-platform or hybrid events, a technical rehearsal catches the problems that only show up live — mic hand-offs, slide transitions, remote guests joining.
