Stuff we learned from running conferences (e.g. 2013 AGM).

  • Get speakers to provide their presentations up front
  • Test connectivity for all types of laptop/projector
  • Make sure that plug sockets are available for attendees
  • Lincoln is a pain to get to if you don't have a car - perhaps next time have it outside London, but in a major, easily accessible city rather than a small, picturesque city?
  • Break-out rooms were a little out of the way from the plenary room, so getting people to go to the break-out sessions was difficult.
  • Note that registration form dictates name badge.
