  • Allocate staff: Form a group of people, including experts in the event field and other staff, to ensure that each mission is given the attention it needs. The core member should be in charge of the most important tasks, and depending on the program, marketing and financial members will be selected.
  • Budget planning: To avoid a budget shortfall, a precise plan for spending is a must. Each conference has different requirements in terms of technology, venue, and speaker fees. Therefore, the organizer should estimate all the expenses to spend the funds wisely.
  • Choose conference format: The most common formats are offline, virtual, and hybrid. Each format has its own unique points; based on your budget limit, goals, and employee source, choose the conference that suits your needs the most.

  • Time and location: Deciding on an appropriate date and event venue plays a crucial role in organizing an impressive conference. When selecting the date, make sure it does not clash with other holidays. The venue should be convenient for transportation and parking.
  • Guest list: A science conference gathers many experts who might need to book a flight to participate. Therefore, the organizer will complete the attendee list and send the invitations at least a week before the event.
