🛠️ What Could Be Improved

🔊 Audio / Tech

Audio issues in keynote, multipurpose room, and some classrooms

Tech issues during keynote disrupted experience

Ensure all speakers, regardless of room size, use microphones

🕒 Session Timing & Structure

More time needed between sessions.

Talks often ran over time, impacting next sessions

30-min sessions were too short for depth or Q&A

Suggested 45–60 mins per session with fewer overlaps

Sessions overlapped too much; hard to attend all desired content

Longer breaks between sessions, especially before after-party

📢 Speaker & Program Management

No recordings or slide sharing disappointed many attendees

Speakers onboarding needs to include maps

🧭 Wayfinding & Signage

Venue was hard to navigate (Platform Calgary)

People didn’t know where keynote or lunch was

East Annex was the most asked-about room

Map wasn’t clearly accessible; many had to “hunt” for it (not sure what it means)

Recommend printed maps and more signage

🍽️ Food & Beverage

Food/snack location was hidden; people couldn’t find it

Snacks available all day, though email said lunch only—caused confusion

Lineups for food were long—need multiple lines

Lack of gluten-free and allergy-friendly options

Café was closed; attendees wanted coffee onsite

Coffee placement (e.g. in multipurpose room) could improve visibility

👥 Networking Opportunities

Not enough structured or spontaneous networking time

Sessions overlapped with prime networking opportunities

Suggestions: 10-minute networking breaks between sessions

Dedicated time or activities to facilitate mingling

Heylo app was helpful but not a full substitute for in-person time

Heylo app needed more engagement and monitoring.

🧾 Logistics & Communication

Friday workshops weren’t clearly communicated during ticket sales

Difficult to find schedule online—email saved the day

Website lacked clarity (FAQ missing info on recordings, food, speakers)

Printed schedule during event was most helpful—keep that

No group ticket attendee list; scanning issues for late arrivals

No clear plan for speaker guests, facilitators, or invited guests

Volunteers wanted more clarity in orientation and task roles

Room layout in multipurpose room wasn’t great for networking or comfort

Some rooms were too small for the audience they received, which meant that sessions where not close when they where full.
