WorkCast Corporation (trading in the UK as The WorkCast Corporation Ltd) is a technology company specialising in online event, webinar and virtual event software. Established in June 2008 and headquartered in Gateshead in the North East of England, it develops cloud‑based technology designed to help organisations create, manage and scale engaging digital events, webcasts and hybrid experiences that connect with audiences worldwide.
At the centre of WorkCast’s offering is its enterprise‑level cloud platform, which enables businesses to produce branded webinars, webcasts, live streams and virtual conferences with features for audience interaction, analytics and integration with CRM or marketing tools. The platform’s ease of use — including no requirement for downloads or plugins — is intended to reduce barriers for participants and event organisers alike, making it accessible on any internet‑connected device without technical complexity.
WorkCast has positioned itself as a key player in the digital events space by combining robust technology with customer support; its team assists clients from initial setup through event execution. The company’s software supports a wide range of event types, from product launches and training sessions to large‑scale virtual trade shows and hybrid experiences, and is used across sectors such as education, marketing, fintech, associations and enterprise communications.
Over the years, the business has developed a global footprint, with offices not only in the UK but also in the United States (including a Seattle, WA address) and Scotland, serving clients in more than 20 countries. WorkCast has hosted — through its technology — thousands of events for millions of attendees, demonstrating its capacity to deliver scalable online experiences for a range of audiences.
In addition to its core platform, WorkCast emphasises engagement, analytics and branding capabilities that help businesses generate leads, communicate with stakeholders and measure event performance. Independent reviews point to strong user satisfaction with WorkCast’s functionality and support, though as with many digital event platforms there are occasional reports of mixed technical experiences depending on specific event conditions.
Overall, WorkCast represents a mature and versatile digital events solution for organisations seeking to extend their reach and impact with professional‑grade online and hybrid events, underpinned by technology developed and supported from the UK’s North East.
