Ready for your event in a couple of days? Don't forget the following. Note that not all of them might apply to your event. 

What you need for onsite:

  3. Sound, so people know that the next meeting round is about to start. This could be a gong, a bell or music installed by AV technician.

  4. Hostesses at the meeting areas. They control the meeting times, make sure people are leaving the tables in time, and guide people to the right tables. (especially at Networking Hubs). They may have printed exports or work with laptops.
