Société Générale organized a web conference using the Cloud.

Context

To celebrate Société Générale’s 150th anniversary, the executives wanted to organise a conference for the Group’s employees.

The conference was broadcast on the Group’s intranet and the 160,000 employees could interact with speakers via a social network deployed for the occasion. The software was developed by IPPON TECHNOLOGIES.
