Abstract

The event management system described is capable of aligning controlled content in a controlled content repository to properties of an event, e.g., event type, event topic, geographic location and product involved. When a user creates an event, controlled content associated with the event properties may be displayed so that the user may choose proper content for the event. When event content is updated in the controlled content repository, the latest version is pushed to the speaker so that only the latest version of the controlled content can be shared. Content displayed during a webinar and attendee participation data for the webinar may be tracked and stored in a CRM system.
