Abstract. A study on virtual events in the pandemic scenario.

This article aims to present the results of the research on Initiation Monitoring in Technological Development and Innovation, developed at FATEC Barueri, whose theme portrays a study on virtual events in the pandemic scenario. The main objective of the work is to understand how the transition from in-person events to the online format happened, presenting bibliographical research on the concept, classification, and typology of events, following a chronological order. To complement the research, a questionnaire was prepared, available in a virtual format, with questions about the subject, which provided an analysis and interpretation of the data obtained. The coronavirus pandemic has intensely affected the event segment, which, despite all the difficulties, needed to reinvent itself to survive and create alternatives to keep such an economically important sector warm. And, despite modifying the human being's way of living and living, it is possible to learn from any situation. Seeing opportunities in difficult times is one of the few positive aspects of this moment of crisis.
