What leaders are saying
“The trend toward interactivity will intensify—moderated chat, surveys, voting, and Q&A sessions are already practically standard. The trend for shorter webinars may also grow—those where it will be easier to maintain the fragile attention of the audience.”
Head of Copy, Niebieski Lis
“In 2026, I expect automated webinars to play an even greater role. They have their place in the process; however, I personally prefer a form that allows for the closest possible interaction with participants.”
Marketing Manager, SkyShop
“I think the biggest trend we will observe will be an even wider practical application of artificial intelligence. Fewer people from higher management levels will participate in webinars, and the majority of the audience will be specialists performing daily tasks who want to train their skills.”
