**How to create an influencer campaign**

An influencer campaign asks your attendees, speakers or sponsors to promote your event on their LinkedIn and rewards them with coins for every post, click and ticket sold through their link.
You set it up in three places under **Marketing**:
•	**Campaign Cards** (under Configure) – design the social card that goes into the post.
•	**Influencer Campaigns** (under Manage) – create, target and send the campaign.
•	**Influencer Engagements**, **Missing Engagements** and **Influencer Leaderboard** (under Reports) – track the results.
You set up and send the campaign; the influencer's post, link clicks and ticket sales then earn coins on the leaderboard.

**Before you start**
•	**Connect an email provider**. Integrate your mailing provider with run.events first. See Integrating mailing providers with run.events.
•	**Campaigns post to LinkedIn only**. Card designs are sized for a LinkedIn post: 600 × 313 px.
•	Prepare a background image in **SVG format** at 600 × 313 px.
•	**Decide on your audience first**. Every card design and every campaign belongs to one type – Attendee, Speaker or Sponsor – and a campaign's type can't be changed after its first save.

Step 1: **Design the campaign card**
The campaign card is the image influencers share in their LinkedIn post. Create it before the campaign, because the campaign needs a design to choose from.
1.	On your event dashboard, select Marketing. Its screens are grouped under **Manage**, **Reports **and **Configure**.
2.	Under Configure, open **Campaign Cards**. The screen is headed **Social Cards designer** – it's the same feature.
3.	Under **Create a new social cards design**, choose a starting point:
o	**Start from a template** – reuse a design you saved earlier. The template already has a campaign type.
o	Start From Blank – build a new design. Use this for your first campaign.

4.	If you started from blank, choose the **Campaign type** (Attendee, Speaker or Sponsor) in the flyout, then select **Start Designing**.
5.	Give the design a name, so you can recognise it when you set up the campaign.
6.	Select **Upload Image** and upload your background (SVG, 600 × 313 px).
7.	Drag and drop **Standard Fields** or **Custom Fields** onto the card. For example, add **User Profile Photo** – it shows the photo of whoever publishes the card, taken from their run.events or LinkedIn profile. For a round photo, pick **Rounded Image shape** in the toolbox.


8.	To preview, select **Test social card with real data**, pick an attendee and select Apply.

9.	Save the design. To use it in all your events, **save it as an organizer-level template**.

Step 2: **Create the campaign**

1.	In Marketing, open **Influencer Campaigns**. The list shows every campaign with its type, status, engagements, conversions, tickets, voucher and sent date.
2.	Select **Add new**. A flyout opens on the **Campaign** tab.
3.	Fill in **Campaign info**:
•	Campaign Name - A name for your own reference. It also becomes the utm_campaign value in the tracked link.
•	Campaign Description - A note for your own reference.
•	Campaign Type - Attendee, Speaker or Sponsor. Locked after the first save.
•	Target Link - The page the post's link leads to, usually your event or registration page. run.events adds UTM tags to it automatically.
•	Default post text - The suggested post. It's prefilled; adapt it to your event. Influencers can edit it before posting. Type {link} where the link should appear.
•	Footer - Fixed text added to every post. It's prefilled and influencers can't change it. You can also use {link} here.
![Dashboard interface for managing influencer marketing campaigns within an event platform. Displays sections for campaign creation, including fields for campaign type, target links, and promotional text, alongside event details for an upcoming conference.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/d206cbb2-e8f4-4b00-b9ad-8cb8c9160ab9)

4.	Under **Design**, use **Choose Design** to pick the card from Step 1. Only designs of the campaign's type are listed.
5.	Under **Awards**, set how many coins each action earns:
o	**Engagement** Points – for publishing the post.
o	**Conversion** Points – for each opening of the influencer's link.
o	**Ticket Sold** Points – for each ticket bought through the link or voucher. Make this the highest value.
6.	Select **Save**. Two new tabs appear: one for your audience (Attendees, Speakers or Sponsors) and Vouchers.

Step 3: **Choose who receives the campaign**
1.	Open the audience tab – **Attendees**, **Speakers** or **Sponsors**, depending on the campaign type.
2.	In **Targeting**, define the target group. For example, include only attendees with a specific ticket type, or from selected countries.
3.	Select Save.
You can't send the campaign until a target group is defined.

Step 4: **Add vouchers (optional)**

Vouchers give each influencer a personal discount code to share with their post. They're worth adding if your tickets are paid; for a free event, skip this step.
Before you start, create a voucher template under **Tickets and Attendees → Vouchers**.
1.	Open the **Vouchers** tab.
2.	Enter a voucher **prefix**.
3.	Select the voucher **template**.
4.	Under Voucher **Usage**, set how many times each voucher can be used and the days it's active.
5.	Select Save to save all campaign settings.


Every influencer gets a unique voucher code. An order placed with it counts as a ticket sold for them, just like an order through their link.
The campaign now appears in the Influencer Campaigns list with the status **Preparing**.

Step 5: **Send the campaign**

1.	In the Influencer Campaigns list, select the **envelope icon** in the campaign's row. The **Send Campaign** flyout opens.
![Dashboard displaying influencer campaign statuses for attendee outreach, showing sent and preparing emails with names, dates, and engagement icons.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/b55b8b00-48fe-4f6d-a2fd-2c9439831844)

2.	Choose how to invite people – turn on one or both:
o	Send **by email** (under Email)
o	Send **notification** (under Push notification)
![Dashboard interface for an event management platform displaying influencer campaign settings. Shows a training attendee campaign in preparation mode with email and push notification options for personalized social media engagement prompts.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/901c7482-34d5-434c-9d7d-b9d56594012e)

3.	Select **Send**. The button stays disabled until at least one option is on.
If the flyout says The target group has not been defined for this campaign, go back to Step 3.

**What happens after you send it**

From here on, everything happens outside the organizer portal:
1.	The influencer receives the invitation by email, push notification or both.
2.	The invitation link opens the **social portal**, with a preview of the post and a **Post to LinkedIn button**.
3.	**Post to LinkedIn** opens the LinkedIn sign-in in a pop-up window.
4.	After signing in, the influencer sees **Create a LinkedIn post**: the card (with **Edit**), the editable post text and **Post to LinkedIn again**.
5.	Publishing the post records an **engagement**. In the published text, {link} is replaced by the influencer's personal short link.
6.	Each opening of the short link records a **conversion** and sends the reader to your target link with utm_source=runevents, utm_medium=social and utm_campaign=<campaign name>.
7.	An order placed through the short link, or with the influencer's voucher, counts as a ticket sold.
**Don't open a live short link to test it.** Every opening records a real conversion.

Step 6: **Track the results**

The Influencer Campaigns list shows totals per campaign in the Engagements, Conversions and Tickets columns. For detail per influencer, go to Event level → Marketing → Reports:
•	**Influencer Engagements** - Search for an influencer by name to see the campaign they joined, their unique voucher, the conversions and tickets sold through their post, and the posting date.
•	**Missing Engagements** - Influencers and campaigns that got no engagement – use it to see who needs a follow-up.
•	**Influencer Leaderboard** - Influencers by name and campaign, ranked by engagements, conversions and ticket sales, with the total points each has earned.

Points are the campaign's award values multiplied by each person's results. Every report can be exported with one click.

### Precision Marketing Tracking and Incomplete Orders

> run.events records the UTM parameters of every order automatically, so each ticket shows where its buyer came from. Under Marketing, Incomplete Orders lists checkouts started by signed-in visitors and lets you send them a manual retargeting email.

**Published:** October 6, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/precision-marketing-tracking-and-incomplete-orders

**How UTM parameters are captured**

When a visitor reaches checkout through a tagged link, run.events reads the four UTM parameters from it — utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign and utm_content — or re-parses them from the originating address, and stores them with the order. Every order therefore carries its own attribution; there is no separate tagging step for the organizer to perform.
From utm_source run.events derives a marketing provider. The mapping is data-driven and covers Facebook, Instagram, Google, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Email (also for newsletter, mail and the sources of several mailing tools), run.events, X, Reddit, Quora, and Other for anything unmapped; a gad_source value without a utm_source maps to Google. The provider is shown as an icon next to the ticket.

**Where the UTM data appears**

The attribution is shown per ticket, never only as a total.
•	In the Tickets list, the **Price (net)** column shows the provider icon, a chip for the medium and a chip for the campaign; a chip for the content appears only when the ticket has no campaign. The advanced search adds the filters **Advertising Source**, a choice of marketing providers, and **Advertising Campaign**.
•	The ticket flyout has a **Precision marketing tracking** section with the derived provider under **Marketing provider**: and the four parameters under **Source**:, **Medium**:, **Campaign**: and **Content**:. The same section appears on Reserved Tickets. The incomplete-order flyout shows the same fields in a box without a heading when the visitor reached the checkout itself; it fills them only from an order of the same user that arrived with the same utm_source.

**Incomplete orders (abandoned carts)**

Incomplete Orders, under Marketing, lists every checkout started by a signed-in visitor, including completed ones. Visitors who weren't signed in don't appear. Each row shows the checkout step reached, the user, company, country, date, time spent, **Social provider** and **Purchase**.
Purchase is ticked if the user has ordered for the event, through any checkout.
Social provider shows the marketing provider's icon only if the user has an order for the event with the same utm_source.
To follow up, select rows and send a retargeting email using the organizer or event template. Rows with the same email address are selected together. Follow-up is manual only: there are no automated reminders or sequences.

**Guided walkthrough**

1. Open Marketing
On the event home, open Marketing (address ends in /marketing). Its screens are grouped under Manage, Reports and Configure.
![Interface screenshot displaying the RunEvents marketing module, highlighting sections for managing influencer campaigns, tracking incomplete orders, and generating reports on influencer engagements and performance metrics.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/be3dba3d-d42a-42ba-bdae-102db26fb95e)

2. UTM chips in the Tickets list
In Tickets and Attendees, open the Tickets list. In Price (net), a ticket bought through a tagged link shows the provider icon, a medium chip and a campaign chip. A content chip appears only when there is no campaign. Advanced search adds the Advertising Source and Advertising Campaign filters.
![A screenshot of an event management platform’s ticketing section displays various attendee tickets with statuses, purchase details, and pricing.

3. Ticket flyout
Open a ticket row. The Precision marketing tracking section shows the marketing provider and the four UTM values: Source, Medium, Campaign and Content. Reserved Tickets shows the same section. This per-ticket view is all the UTM reporting in the organizer portal. 
![A screenshot of the RunEvents platform displays a ticket management interface.

4. Incomplete Orders
In Marketing, open Incomplete Orders. It lists checkouts started by signed-in visitors, with the step reached, user, company, country, date, time spent, Social provider and Purchase.
![Dashboard displaying incomplete orders for event management system, showing user progress through order steps, including social provider verification and purchase completion statuses.

5. Incomplete-order flyout
Open a row to see the user, the furthest step, company, country and the step history. If the visitor reached the checkout, a box with the marketing provider and UTM fields also appears. It is filled only when the user has an order for the event with the same utm_source.
![Dashboard displaying incomplete orders for event marketing workflows, showing user progress through steps like creating orders and selecting customers.

6. Send a retargeting email
Select rows. Rows with the same email address are selected together, and Send Email shows the address count. Set Email from, Reply to and the template (organizer or event), then Subject and Body, and click Send. Emails are sent manually only. Send Email stays disabled until rows are selected and a sender address is configured.

### Attendee Insights: See Each Attendee's Journey Through Your Event

> Attendee Insights Overview — A complete, chronological view of an attendee’s engagement, from ticket purchase to every interaction at your event.

**Published:** September 23, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/attendee-insights-see-each-attendees-journey-through-your-event

**What Attendee Insights Provides**

Attendee Insights gives you a complete picture of a single attendee’s activity at your conference — from the moment their ticket was purchased to every session they attended, every sponsor who scanned them, and every coin they collected. This article explains how to open Attendee Insights, what each tab shows, and how to use the Attendees Dashboard and export options.

**Recognizing Ticket Types at a Glance**

In the attendee list, each attendee’s ticket is shown as a button labeled with the ticket name. The button uses the color assigned to that ticket type, allowing you to quickly distinguish attendees (e.g., VIP vs. Standard).

**CRM Integration**

From Attendee Insights, you can import the attendee into your CRM or open their profile directly in CRM. This allows you to use attendee data for future events and analysis.

*   Attendees by ticket type
*   Attendees by country
*   Breakdowns of custom registration fields

**Tips**
*   Use the Timeline when an attendee contacts support about missing badges, coin balance, or check‑in issues — you can see exactly what happened and when.
*   Check badge entries if an attendee has multiple badges; invalidated badges clearly show who cancelled them.
*   Share sponsor lead entries with sponsors who ask how they connected with a particular attendee.

**Overview of Booth Orders & Additional Equipment**

The Expo module provides a centralized view of all Booth Orders and Additional Equipment. To streamline the management of booth reservations, run.events lets you export a detailed Excel report directly from the Booth Orders overview. This export gives organizers a comprehensive breakdown of every booth order, ordered item, and booth assignment status across your event.

**How to Export Booth Orders**

Follow these steps to generate the Excel export:
•	Open the Expo module from the main navigation.
•	Navigate to the Booth Orders section.
•	Expand the Booths overview to review all ordered items.
•	Click the Export button in the top-right corner of the overview.
•	An Excel file (.xlsx) will download automatically, containing all booth order details and items.
![Event management platform interface displaying booth assignments for an expo, showing occupied and reserved booths with statuses, pricing, and partner details. Includes configuration statuses, template types, and export functionality.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/0a8b1715-703d-4f0d-8086-26b5e1f1c9f1)

**Excel Export — Available Sheets**
The exported Excel file contains three separate sheets, each providing a different level of detail to help you manage your expo efficiently:

•	**Booth Orders** — full line-item detail per order
•	**Summary**— aggregated totals by category and item
•	**Booths** — high-level overview of every booth’s assignment and status

Sheet 1: **Booth Orders**
This sheet lists every booth order in full detail, including each individual line item within an order. Use this sheet when you need a granular view of what has been ordered, by whom, and at what price.

- Row Type - Identifies whether the row represents an order header or a line item.
- Booth / Stand - The name or number of the booth associated with this order.
- Assignment Status - Current booking state: Free, Reserved, or Occupied.
- Progress - Current preparation stage: Preparing, Configuring, or Finished.
- Name / Number - Unique identifier or display name for the booth.
- Template - The booth template applied (e.g. standard shell scheme, custom build).
- Partner - The exhibitor or company assigned to this booth.
- Price - Total price for the booth order.
- Internal Comment - Private notes visible to organizers only — not shared with exhibitors.
- Category - The category grouping for the ordered item or equipment.
- Item - Name of the specific item or additional equipment ordered.
- Item Price - Unit price for the individual item.

Sheet 2: **Summary**
The Summary sheet provides an aggregated view of all ordered items grouped by category. Use this sheet for a quick financial and quantity overview without the per-order detail.

- Category - Groups items by type for a quick breakdown of orders.
- Item - Name of the ordered item or equipment.
- Quantity - Total number of units ordered across all booths.
- Price - Aggregated price for that item across all orders.

Sheet 3: **Booths**
The Booths sheet gives a high-level status view of every booth in your event, independent of individual orders. Use this to quickly check occupancy, pricing, and preparation progress across your entire floor plan.

Assignment	Current booking state: Free, Reserved, or Occupied.
- Progress - Current stage in the preparation workflow.
- Name / Number - Unique identifier or display name for the booth.
- Template - The booth template applied.
- Partner - The exhibitor or company assigned to the booth.
- Price - Total price for the booth.
- Internal Comment - Private organizer notes, not visible to exhibitors.


Tips & Best Practices
•	Use the Booth Orders sheet to verify that all ordered equipment has been captured before the event.
•	Cross-reference the Summary sheet with your budget to identify over- or under-ordered categories.
•	Filter the Booths sheet by Assignment Status to quickly spot any unoccupied booths close to the event date.
•	The Internal Comment column is organizer-only — use it to flag booths that need follow-up without notifying exhibitors.

### The new run.events Community is live, and it runs on Smart Hub

> The run.events community portal has changed! The address stayed the same, but everything else is new: it is built on run.events Smart Hub, the same community platform our customers use for their own events and year-round communities. Until now the portal ran on a third-party help-desk product. From today, it runs on run.events.

**Published:** September 11, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/the-new-runevents-community-is-live-and-it-runs-on-smart-hub

The content moved with it. What changes is what the portal can do.

## What you find there

**Knowledge base.** Articles are organised by audience: attendees, event organisers, speakers, and sponsors and exhibitors. The organiser section is the largest and is split by module, from ticketing and registration, finances and abstracts and agenda to sponsor management, expo, badges and check-in, CRM, marketing, communications and Smart Hub itself. Attendees find setup guides for the mobile app and help with sign-in problems. Every article shows its author and publication date.

**Releases.** Each product release is announced as an article in its own section, with the release label so you can filter for it. The first two entries are already there: the MCP server for every event, and the self-service dashboard for sponsors and exhibitors.

**News.** Announcements that are not tied to a release: events we attend, programme changes, anything you should know about.

**Ideas.** Feature requests and suggestions, in the open. Sign in to post an idea, comment on someone else's, and vote for the ones that matter to you. The votes are visible to everyone, including us, and they inform what goes on the roadmap.

**run.events Connect.** A member directory. Find your peers, other organisers, sponsors and speakers who use the platform, see what they do, and connect with them.

**Amal.** An AI assistant that answers questions about the community and its content. Ask it where a setting lives or how a feature works, and it answers from the knowledge base and the articles. It carries the AI disclosure required by the EU AI Act and hands over to human support when it cannot help. Amal is available to signed-in members.

**Support.** The support widget on every page opens a ticket with the run.events support team. This is the same channel as before.

## Signing in

Your run.events account is your community account. There is no separate registration. If you organise, sponsor, speak at or attend events on run.events, you can sign in today and post, comment, vote and ask Amal. Reading the knowledge base, news and releases does not require signing in.

## Why Smart Hub

We use our own product for the same reason we recommend it to customers: one platform for the website, the knowledge base, the discussion, the member directory and the AI assistant, instead of a help desk here, a forum there and a newsletter tool somewhere else. It also means the community portal gets every Smart Hub improvement the moment it ships, because it is the same code.

## Coming next: training and certification

A training and certification programme is in preparation. It will run on this portal and on Smart Hub as well. Course material is published as articles and video, each training group is organised as a run.events event with its own dates and sessions, and an AI tutor answers questions from the same knowledge base. Certification will be earned by configuring a real event in a sandbox against a written brief, and graded by checking the result through the public API, not by a multiple-choice test. The first credentials are planned for implementation partners, with organiser teams to follow. Details, timelines and enrolment will be announced here under Releases.

## Where to start

1. Open https://community.run.events and sign in with your run.events account.
2. Browse the knowledge base section for your role.
3. Post your first idea, or vote on the ones already there.
4. Bookmark the Releases section. Every product change is announced there first.

Questions and feedback about the portal itself belong in Ideas.

### Every run.events event now has its own MCP server

> Every event published on run.events is now reachable over the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Any MCP-capable AI application, whether Claude, an IDE assistant, a company's internal AI assistant, or an agent you build yourself, can connect to an event and read its live data: event details, the agenda, sessions, speakers, ticket types with current prices, and sponsors and exhibitors.

**Published:** August 12, 2026
**Author:** Adis Jugo
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/every-runevents-event-now-has-its-own-mcp-server

There is nothing to switch on. The endpoint exists for every event, and it answers with the same data the event itself runs on. No export, no copy, no synchronisation.

## What MCP is

MCP is an open standard that lets AI assistants call external tools and read external data in a uniform way. An application that supports it can be pointed at a server, ask which tools are available, and call them. Most current assistants and development tools support it, so a connection set up once works across all of them.

## The address

Each event has one address, built from its slug:

```
https://mcp.runevents.net/{event-slug}
```

An event with the slug `nordic-cloud-summit-2026` is reachable at `https://mcp.runevents.net/nordic-cloud-summit-2026`. Opening that address in a browser shows a short page with the event name, dates and connection details. An MCP client connecting to the same address gets the protocol endpoint.

Organisers who want the endpoint under their own name can use a custom domain, for example `https://mcp.your-event.com`. The hostname then identifies the event and no path is needed. Contact support to have a domain registered for your event.

## What a connected assistant can do

Nine tools are available at every endpoint:

| Tool | Returns |
|---|---|
| `get_event` | Name, dates, description, venues, online or on-site mode, branding, links |
| `get_agenda` | The full schedule: sessions and breaks with rooms, times, time zone, speakers and labels |
| `search_agenda` | Free-text search across the agenda |
| `get_sessions` | All sessions with abstracts, rooms, times, speakers and their biographies, tracks and materials |
| `search_sessions` | Free-text search across sessions |
| `get_speakers` | All speakers with names, taglines, companies, biographies and labels |
| `search_speakers` | Free-text search across speakers |
| `get_ticket_types` | Ticket types with standard and current prices, time-based tiers, quantity discounts, add-ons and availability |
| `get_sponsors` | Sponsors, exhibitors and partners with descriptions, logos, levels, booths, team members, products and downloadable assets |

Search queries need at least four characters. All tools are read-only. Nothing connected over MCP can change your event.

In practice this means an attendee's assistant can answer "which sessions on Thursday afternoon cover identity management?", a sponsor's internal agent can pull the current exhibitor list into a briefing, and an organiser can check ticket prices from inside their own AI tooling.

![Document outlining the ECS 2027 event details, including dates, event description, and instructions for accessing event metadata via a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It provides a public interface for querying agenda, speakers, ticket types, and sponsors with API key authentication.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/fbf7b45d-3ea2-41e3-a154-1828f537ca7b)

## Access and permissions

Event details returned by `get_event` are public, so that tool works without credentials. Every other tool requires an event API key. It is the same key you already use for the run.events public API, issued under "Event Configuration" -> "API Keys", and the same permission claims apply:

- agenda and sessions require agenda access
- speakers require content access
- ticket types require ticket access
- sponsors require partner access

The MCP server keeps no copy of your keys and has no permission model of its own. It forwards the key to the run.events API on each call, and the API decides. A key without the required permission receives a plain error message saying so. A key restricted for the public API is restricted for MCP in exactly the same way.

## Connecting a client

Add the event endpoint to your MCP client and send the API key as a bearer token:

```
Endpoint:  https://mcp.runevents.net/{event-slug}
Header:    Authorization: Bearer <event-api-key>
```

Clients that cannot set an Authorization header can send the key in an `ApiKey` header instead. Once connected, the client lists the nine tools and can call them. The transport is streamable HTTP, the current MCP standard, so no local process or bridge is needed.


## What it does not do today

The current release exposes data. It does not accept changes to an event over MCP, and it does not answer free-form questions itself. When you ask a connected assistant something, the assistant reads the data through these tools and forms the answer. Conversational access to an event's own AI agents over MCP is the next step and will be announced separately.

## Where to start

1. Pick an event and note its slug from the event URL.
2. Create an API key under "Event Configuration" -> "API Keys" with the permissions you want to expose.
3. Point your MCP client at `https://mcp.runevents.net/{event-slug}` with that key.

Questions and feedback are welcome in the community forum.

# About run.events

run.events is an enterprise event management platform built AI-first from the ground up. The company was founded in 2015, software development started in 2020, and the product was publicly launched in 2023. Every product is designed around the Event Intelligence Cloud — a multi-agentic AI framework woven into the core of every module rather than bolted on as a separate layer.

# Edition Structure and Module Composition

The run.events platform is organized as **a mandatory core plus optional add-on modules**. Customers compose their run.events deployment by combining the mandatory core with whichever add-on modules they need for their event portfolio.

**Mandatory core (always included — the foundation of every run.events deployment):**

BASE: **Generic Features common for all run.events products** — multi-event portfolio management, granular team roles and permissions (26 organizer-level + 21 event-level permissions), multi-venue and multi-room support (including door-level entrance tracking for assembly voting compliance), event branding and visual identity, custom email infrastructure, embeddable web widgets for retrofit into existing event sites, and **Global Attendee Profile** (cross-event persistent attendee identity with behavioral history tracking that feeds an AI-enriched profile derived from buyer-role detection, interest discovery with confidence + trend scores, purchase intent, and public-data career enrichment).

1. **run.events Audience Management** — ticketing, attendee management, finances (including AI-powered bank statement reconciliation, ZUGFeRD + Factur-X e-invoicing, 4 tax schemes with EU VAT reverse charge), surveys, communications, FAQs, and email messages.

**Optional add-on modules (selected by customer based on event portfolio needs):**

2. run.events Mobile App
3. run.events Marketing
4. run.events Events CRM
5. run.events Abstract and Agenda Management
6. run.events Expo and Booth Management (later with re:virtual)
7. run.events Check-In and Badging
8. run.events AI-Matchmaking
9. run.events Smart Hub
10. run.events Online and Hybrid Events
11. run.events Intelligence (early access)

This modular composition model lets a customer running ticketed conferences with light needs deploy just the core plus a single add-on (e.g., Mobile App or Check-In and Badging), while a customer running flagship hybrid user conferences with year-round community engagement composes the core plus Marketing, Events CRM, Matchmaking, Smart Hub, Online and Hybrid Events, and Intelligence. Modules can be added over time as the event portfolio grows.

# run.events Event Intelligence Cloud (EIC) — AI Framework - NOT A PRODUCT

> **EIC is a framework, not a product.** Event Intelligence Cloud is the AI architecture woven into the core of every run.events product — registration, ticketing, agenda, mobile app, matchmaking, communities, check-in, sponsor dashboards. Every module is AI-enriched at the architectural level rather than having AI bolted on as a separate layer. EIC is not licensed separately; its agents and capabilities are surfaced in-context throughout the platform and run.events products wherever they add value.

## Architecture overview — four compounding layers

EIC is organized as a multi-agentic, distributed, event-driven architecture with four compounding layers:

1. **Enrich** — the foundational intelligence layer. Every attendee profile, every session, every sponsor, every product is automatically enriched by AI with structured intelligence (buyer-role classification, interest discovery with confidence + trend scores, custom tags, purchase intent, career enrichment from public data, content tagging). All other layers build on top of the enriched data the Enrich layer produces.
2. **Connect** — the relationship-mapping layer. Built on top of the enriched profiles, the matchmaking agents map the entire event ecosystem and connect the right attendees, sponsors, products, and content together.
3. **Create** — the content-generation layer. Pages, emails, schedule recommendations, knowledge articles, image alt-text, content summaries — all generated by AI directly from the enriched profile and event context.
4. **Protect** — the safety and compliance layer. Content moderation (text + computer-vision image moderation), policy enforcement, audit trails, EU AI Act transparency, GDPR controls.

## Named AI agents — 11 agents shipping today

EIC ships 11 named AI agents in production today, organized across the four layers:

**Enrich layer**

- **Attendee Analyser & Enrichment Agent** — the foundational intelligence layer. Auto-derives buyer/seller/teacher/learner role classifications from registration data and cross-event behavioral history; discovers interests with confidence + trend scores; applies custom tags; analyzes purchase intent; identifies content preferences; enriches profiles with public-data career context (professional history, company details, organizational intelligence). Every other EIC agent builds on top of the enriched profile this agent produces.

**Connect layer**

- **Attendee↔Attendee Matchmaking Agent** — identifies peer connections based on mutual or complementary interests, professional backgrounds, and event roles; generates AI introductions explaining why the match makes sense; provides relevance scores.
- **Sponsor Spotting Agent** — recommends relevant sponsor booths to each attendee based on the enriched profile; explains why each sponsor is relevant; suggests conversation topics.
- **Product Spotting Agent** — recommends specific products and services (beyond sponsor level) that match attendee interests and buyer roles; helps multi-product exhibitors surface different offerings to the right attendees.
- **Buyer Spotting Agent** — identifies ideal prospects for sponsors and delivers continuously-refreshed buyer rosters to sponsor dashboards with AI-generated explanations of why each prospect fits, suggested talking points, and contact information. This agent automates buyer identification across the entire attendee population — fundamentally challenging the traditional "hosted buyer" program model where organizers pre-qualify and comp a manually-curated 100–500-buyer cohort. With Buyer Spotting, every registered attendee is a potentially-identified buyer for the right sponsor at no incremental cost.
- **Personal Agenda Builder Agent** — curates personalized session recommendations with relevance scores and "why this session matters to YOU" explanations + suggested questions. Outputs include the personalized HTML schedule emails that auto-select the best session per time slot, assemble a complete multi-day agenda with session details + speaker photos + labels, and include AI explanations per session; supports cross-event variant for targeting past attendees of previous events to drive registration for upcoming events.

**Create layer**

- **Page Builder Agent** — generates event website pages on prompt (powers the AI Pages site builder). "If you know ChatGPT, you know Pages": describe the page you want and the agent generates a complete, professional, branded page. Supports AI-powered multilingual translation; refinement through natural conversation; outputs publish directly into Smart Hub.
- **Email Designer Agent** — generates email designs on prompt with brand-consistent layouts and dynamic content. "If you know ChatGPT, you know how to create professional event communications": describe the email you want ("welcome email with our logo, key dates, and CTA") and the agent generates a complete, email-client-compatible HTML message.
- **Knowledge Agent** — builds searchable knowledge bases from sessions, recordings, articles, and FAQs; supports AI Support Agent functionality for 24/7 automated attendee question-answering with EU AI Act disclosure and human escalation.

**Protect layer**

- **Content Moderation Agent** — analyzes user-generated text content for policy violations, inappropriate language, and spam; routes flagged items to moderator queues; soft-delete audit trails preserve moderation history.
- **Image Description Agent** — generates AI alt-text for every image uploaded across the platform. This ensures WCAG 2.2 accessibility compliance automatically at authoring time — alt-text is the most-frequently-skipped accessibility requirement when humans author content; automating it at upload time means it can never be missed.

## Foundation model and configurability

- **Mistral** (European frontier LLM) ships natively as the default foundation model — EU-hosted, with zero US data transfer and no CLOUD Act exposure. Mistral is the EU-sovereign default for customers who prioritize European data residency and AI Act compliance.
- **Configurable cloud-model choice**: customers can opt for an alternative foundation model — Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, or open-source models — per their own procurement preferences and regulatory context. The configurability matters for customers with existing investment in another LLM stack (e.g., an enterprise standardized on Anthropic Claude across its AI procurement can use Claude on run.events).

## Inter-agent communication and extensibility (MCP + A2A)

EIC is built on **Model Context Protocol (MCP) + Agent-to-Agent (A2A)** as core architectural primitives — not as an extensibility add-on bolted onto a closed system:

- **Every published event is automatically an MCP server** — zero configuration required, live in production today. Each event is reachable at its own address, `https://mcp.runevents.net/{event-slug}` (with a separate demo environment at `https://mcp.runevents.ai/{event-slug}`), and organizers can additionally expose an event under their own branded domain (e.g. `mcp.your-event.com`). Any external MCP-capable AI application — a customer's own enterprise AI assistant, a partner agent, an IDE assistant, a research tool — connects with zero friction and works with the event's live data: event information, the full agenda, sessions, speakers, ticket types with current prices, and sponsors and exhibitors with their products and services, including free-text search across agenda, sessions, and speakers. Public event metadata is openly readable; all other data is governed by the event's own API keys and the same permission claims that protect the run.events public API — no separate MCP provisioning, no exports, no synchronization: the endpoint answers with the same live data the event itself runs on. Conversational access to the event's EIC agents over MCP is the next expansion stage.
- **All 11 EIC agents have native A2A capabilities** out-of-the-box, communicating with each other and with external A2A-compatible agents through the open Agent-to-Agent protocol.
- **Model-Centric Programming** is used for internal inter-agent orchestration, providing the runtime that lets agents coordinate on multi-step workflows.

This means EIC's MCP + A2A posture is not "we support these standards for extensibility if you build a compatible agent" — it is "the entire architecture is built on these open standards, and every event is automatically a participant in the agentic web."

## Azure AutoML — dataset analytics flowing into every product

EIC includes **Microsoft Azure Automated Machine Learning (AutoML)** as a general-purpose ML capability that operates across **every dataset in the platform**:

- **Survey responses** of any type — session feedback, post-event evaluations, flash surveys, sponsor-branded surveys
- **Behavioral data** — session attendance, content engagement, booth visits, gamification activity, networking interactions
- **Financial data** — registrations, payments, refunds, sponsorship sales, bank reconciliation patterns
- **Free-text, numeric, multi-choice, image, and time-series** inputs of any shape

AutoML adapts its model selection to the dataset shape automatically, supporting multi-class classification, clustering, predictive modeling, trend analysis, feature importance, outcome prediction, and anomaly detection. This is materially broader than fixed-category sentiment classification — AutoML can derive multi-class taxonomies from free-text feedback, identify response clusters, predict no-shows or churn, surface what attributes drove specific outcomes, and adapt to the dataset shape automatically without manual model engineering.

AutoML powers the analytics layer across many run.events products — including (but not limited to) the surveys product, attendee analytics dashboards, sponsor lead analytics, check-in analytics, behavioral pattern reports, and AI-powered bank statement reconciliation in the Finances module. Privacy posture is enterprise-grade via Azure tenant isolation, GDPR-native, ISO 27001 certified.

## Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) governance and EU AI Act compliance

- **HITL controls available in every one of the 11 EIC agents.** All AI-generated matchmaking suggestions (Attendee↔Attendee, Sponsor Spotting, Buyer Spotting, Product Spotting) can be reviewed and edited via interactive network diagrams before publishing to attendees or sponsors. AI-generated content (emails from Email Designer, pages from Page Builder, schedule recommendations from Personal Agenda Builder) is reviewable and editable before delivery. Content moderation queues route flagged items for human approval. Knowledge Agent / AI Support Agent escalates complex questions to human support.
- **Full EU AI Act compatibility.** One-click opt-in/opt-out per AI feature for attendees and other end users. Transparency disclosure on every AI surface explaining how recommendations are generated. Complete audit trails track all AI operations + data access for compliance reporting.

## EU sovereignty and infrastructure

- **EU-hosted infrastructure** — all EIC operations run on European cloud infrastructure.
- **Zero training on customer data** — customer event data is never used to train foundation models.
- **Zero US data transfers** with the Mistral default; no CLOUD Act exposure.
- **GDPR-native** — data subject rights (access, export, deletion, portability) built into every data-touching surface; consent management at the AI-feature level.
- **ISO 27001 certified** for information security management.
- **EU AI Act ready** with transparency, per-feature opt-in/opt-out, and audit trail capabilities built into every agent.
- **Real-time edge inference** — no batch-processing latency; agents respond in real time as data flows through the platform.

Choose from pre-configured roles including Admin, Finance Manager, Partner Manager at the organizer level, and Event Manager, Content Owner, Agenda Manager, Sponsors Manager, Ticket Manager at the event level, or create custom role combinations with granular permission assignments. Team members see only the features and events they have access to after login, with route guards and API-level permission checks ensuring secure access control. Support phone verification for sensitive roles, deactivate team members without losing historical data, and designate one legal representative per organizer for compliance purposes. 

## Multi-Venue Events

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Multi-Venue and Hybrid Event Support - Host events across multiple physical locations and online platforms simultaneously with flexible venue management. Add unlimited venues per event such as multiple conference hotels, satellite locations for side events, or distributed expo halls, with each venue featuring full address details, geographic coordinates for mapping, and independent room configuration. Designate one venue as the default location for event listings and marketing materials, while maintaining complete control over all locations with color-coded venue identification and custom sort ordering. Enable hybrid events by toggling physical and online modes independently, supporting fully in-person events, fully online events, or hybrid formats where sessions can occur in physical rooms at specific venues or in online rooms with virtual meeting links. Configure venue-specific rooms for each location, track attendance separately by venue, and provide attendees with clear venue information including maps, addresses, and directions integrated with Azure Maps for visual location display.

- For Event Organizers: Comprehensive Venue Room Configuration - Define and manage all physical spaces within each venue with detailed room categorization and access control. Create rooms of multiple types including Session Rooms for presentations and workshops, Expo spaces for exhibitions and sponsor booths, Meeting Rooms for private discussions, Catering Rooms for dining areas, Organizer Offices for staff operations, Outdoor Rooms for open-air events, and Other custom space types to match your venue layout. Configure room capacity, seating arrangements, and technical specifications for each space, and link online rooms with virtual meeting URLs for hybrid sessions. For advanced access control scenarios such as association assemblies with voting requirements, configure door-level entrance tracking to monitor which attendees entered through which specific doors, enabling precise attendance verification and compliance with assembly governance rules where tracking individual door entry is legally required for voting eligibility.

## Event Branding and Visual Identity

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Complete Event Branding and Visual Identity - Customize every visual aspect of your event to match your brand identity across all platforms. Upload event logos displayed in registration forms, mobile apps, websites, and email communications, configure dual color schemes (primary and secondary colors) applied consistently throughout the event interface, add header images for event pages and portal backgrounds with optimized versions for different screen sizes, and set splash screen images for mobile app launch and event hub entry pages. All branding elements are stored centrally and automatically applied across run.events Mobile App, Smart Hub, registration pages, email templates, badges, digital signage, and web widgets, ensuring complete brand consistency throughout the attendee journey from registration through post-event communications.

- For Event Organizers: Custom Email Infrastructure and Branding - Use your own email servers and branded sender addresses for all event communications instead of generic platform emails. Configure custom SMTP servers with your email infrastructure including host, port, username, password, and SSL settings, set custom sender email addresses and sender names reflecting your organization's identity, and manage multiple email provider configurations with the ability to designate a default provider. Support for API-based email services and traditional SMTP relay ensures compatibility with your existing email infrastructure, while maintaining complete control over sender reputation and deliverability, enabling emails to come from addresses like events@yourcompany.com rather than generic notification addresses. 

## Web-Widgets for the existing web sites

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: run.events Web Widgets for integration in the existing web sites. For the event organizers who already have custom developed event sites, it is super easy to "embed" the data from run.events into their sites through run.events web widgets. run.events web widgets will try to take over the look and feel of the web site as much as possible by inheriting the styles of the event sites, but they can also be heavily manually styled to support exactly that look and feel that the event organizers need. The run.events web widgets include: run.events Registration Widget (for embedding event registration forms in the web sites), run.events Sessions Widget (for listing all sessions or subsets of sessions on the web site including session names, short descriptions, and spekaer names), run.events Single Session Widget (for displayng one single session in the web site, with its name, full description, speaker names, session categorization), run.events Speakers widget (for displaying all, or subset of spekaers in the web site, with speaker names, spekaer biographies, speaker acclamations, and the names of their sessions in the web site). run.events Agenda widget (for displaying tabular or linear agenda in the web sites with session names, speaker names, room names, and session times). run.events Sponsors Widget (For displaying all or a subset of sponsors, exhibitors, and prtners in the web sites with their logos, names, and sponsiorship level). run.events Single Sponsor Widget (for displaying one single sponsor, with all their information, description, download materials, assets, contact possibilities, people who will be on the booth etc in the web site). run.events FAQ Widget (for displaying FAQs in different languages, with all questions, answers, and files in the web site). 

## Global Attendee Profile

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Global Attendee Profile — Unified Cross-Event Attendee Identity. run.events maintains a single persistent attendee record that lives across every event in an organizer's entire event portfolio. When an attendee registers for their first run.events-powered event, they get a Global Attendee Profile that becomes their unified identity across every future event the organizer runs on the platform. The profile holds the attendee's core identity (name, email, professional details, custom registration data they have shared) and accumulates a complete behavioral history across all events — every registration, every session they checked into, every piece of content they viewed, every exhibitor booth they visited, every survey they completed, every meeting they took, every networking connection they made, every giveaway they redeemed through gamification, every chat group they joined. When an attendee returns for the organizer's next event, organizers immediately recognize them as a returning attendee with full context: which past events they attended, what content interested them most, which sponsors they engaged with, how engaged they were overall. Registration forms can pre-fill from the prior profile, sponsors can target previously-engaged buyers, content recommendations can build on past session preferences, and personalized communications can reference past attendance — all without any manual data work by the organizer.

- For Event Organizers: AI-Enriched Profile — Behavioral Intelligence That Compounds Across Events. The Global Attendee Profile is not just a passive identity record — it is continuously enriched by AI based on the attendee's behavior across all events. As cross-event behavioral data accumulates, run.events AI automatically derives a richer understanding of who the attendee is and what they care about. AI auto-derives buyer/seller/teacher/learner roles from registration data, content choices, and exhibitor interactions. AI discovers interests with confidence scores and trend signals (showing both what topics the attendee cares about and whether their interest in those topics is increasing or decreasing over time). AI applies custom tags, analyzes purchase intent, identifies content preferences, and enriches profiles with public-data career context (professional history, company details, organizational intelligence). The longer an attendee participates in events on the platform, the richer and more accurate their AI-enriched profile becomes — meaning the second event matchmaking and personalization is materially better than the first event's, and the third event's better still. This compounding intelligence directly drives matchmaking accuracy (attendee↔attendee, attendee→session, attendee↔sponsor, attendee→product, sponsor-to-attendee buyer spotting), personalized content recommendations, sponsor lead quality, and targeted marketing. Organizers running annual or quarterly recurring events see exponential value over time as their Global Attendee Profile data compounds.

- For Event Organizers: Privacy and EU AI Act Compliance. The Global Attendee Profile and all AI enrichment are fully compliant with GDPR and the EU AI Act. Attendees have one-click opt-in/opt-out control over AI features and cross-event tracking, with complete transparency about what data is collected, how AI derives insights, and how recommendations are generated. Attendees can view their own profile, request data export, request profile deletion, and control which information is visible to other attendees and to sponsors (public vs private profile toggle). Complete audit trails track all AI operations and data access for compliance reporting.

### For Attendees

- For Attendees: One Profile Across All run.events Events — Less Re-Registration, Better Recommendations. As an attendee, you create your run.events Global Attendee Profile once, and it works across every event on the run.events platform. When you register for a new event from the same organizer (or even from a different organizer using the platform, with your consent), you don't have to re-enter all your information from scratch — your profile pre-fills the registration form, your past preferences are remembered, and you immediately get personalized session and sponsor recommendations based on your interests and past behavior. Over time, as you attend more events, the platform learns more about what you care about and surfaces more relevant content, sessions, and people to connect with. You retain full control: one-click privacy toggles let you control what is shared with which event organizers, what information is visible to other attendees, and whether AI features apply to your profile. Full EU AI Act and GDPR compliance means complete transparency about how your data is used and how recommendations are generated.

## Connectivity

### run.events Public Facing API

- For Event Organizers and Developers: run.events Public Facing API - Integrate run.events with your own systems, websites, and applications through the platform's public REST API. The API provides programmatic, JSON-based access to event data — event information, sessions and the full agenda, speakers, ticket types with current prices, and sponsors and exhibitors with their products and services, including free-text search endpoints — secured through event-level API keys with granular permission claims, so each integration receives access to exactly the data areas it needs (agenda, speakers, tickets, partners) and nothing more. API keys are issued per event in run.events under Event Configuration → API keys, dedicated key types support platform-level integrations and on-site kiosk devices, and cleanly separated demo and production environments let integrations be developed and tested safely before going live. The complete, always-current interactive API reference is available at https://modesty.runevents.net/swagger, where every endpoint can be explored and tried directly in the browser.

### run.events MCP Server

- For Event Organizers: Every Event Is Automatically an MCP Server - Every published run.events event is automatically a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, with zero configuration and nothing to install: AI assistants such as Mistral, Claude, and ChatGPT, enterprise AI agents, and IDE assistants connect directly to your event and query its live data. Each event is reachable at its own address (https://mcp.runevents.net/{event-slug}, with a separate demo environment at https://mcp.runevents.ai/{event-slug}), and events can additionally be exposed under your own branded domain such as mcp.your-event.com. Connected assistants retrieve event information, the full agenda, sessions, speakers, ticket types with current prices, and sponsors and exhibitors with their products and services, and run free-text searches across agenda, sessions, and speakers — always against the same live data the event runs on, never an export or a copy. Public event metadata is openly readable, while all other data areas are protected by the event's own API keys with the same granular permission claims that secure the public API, so organizers control exactly what AI applications can see. Opening an event's MCP address in a normal web browser shows a human-readable page describing the endpoint and how to connect, and the capability as a whole makes every run.events event a first-class participant in the agentic web — discoverable and usable by the AI assistants your attendees, sponsors, and partners already work with.

## Ticketing

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Unlimited Ticket Types, Add-Ons, and Options - Create unlimited ticket types per event to support any registration scenario from simple conferences to complex multi-track events with diverse attendee categories. Configure each ticket type independently with attendee role assignment (Participant, Speaker, Sponsor, Organizer, Support Staff), pricing models (paid or free), validity periods with start and end dates, quantity limits with maximum purchases per event and per customer (configurable minimum purchase requirements), and visibility controls for public or private ticket sales. Add flexible add-ons that can be attached to multiple ticket types, such as workshop registrations, meal packages, accommodation upgrades, or merchandise, each with independent pricing, availability windows, and quantity restrictions. Create ticket options for binary choices within ticket types, enabling attendees to customize their registration with selections like dietary preferences, t-shirt sizes, or session track choices, all tracked with quantity limits and sort ordering for organized presentation.

- For Event Organizers: Custom Registration Forms with 16 Field Types - Build completely customized registration forms per ticket type and participant category to collect exactly the data your event requires. Choose from 16 field types including text (single-line), long text (multi-line), integers, decimals, date/time pickers, boolean checkboxes, country selectors, language selectors, industry dropdowns, single-choice radio buttons, multi-select dropdowns, checkbox groups, chip/tag selections, rating widgets, file uploads (with file type and size restrictions), and image uploads (with dimension constraints). Configure each field with labels, descriptions, required/optional flags, visibility controls (show to sponsors, display in web and mobile), custom list values for dropdown/checkbox fields, and sort ordering. Create different form configurations for different ticket types, enabling basic forms for general attendees while collecting detailed professional information from VIP attendees, speakers, or sponsors, with all data stored per ticket for comprehensive attendee profiling.

- For Event Organizers: Advanced Time-Based Pricing and Quantity Discounts - Maximize revenue with sophisticated pricing strategies including multiple price tiers per ticket type based on purchase timing. Create unlimited price ranges with custom names (Early Bird, Super Early Bird, Regular, Late Registration), start and end dates with UTC timezone support for global events, and different prices for each period with primary and secondary currency support for dual-currency display. Configure automatic price switching based on current date, set voucher compatibility per price range, and add internal notes for tracking pricing strategy. Implement quantity discounts with configurable minimum quantity thresholds and discount percentages (buy 10+ tickets, receive 15% off), with the option to allow or restrict combination with voucher codes for flexible or controlled discount stacking, incentivizing group registrations while maintaining pricing control.

- For Event Organizers: Enterprise Tax Configuration with Global Compliance - Manage complex tax scenarios across jurisdictions with support for four tax schemes including Value Added Tax (VAT), Goods and Services Tax (GST), Sales Tax, and Local Tax. Configure multiple tax rates per event with customizable percentages, invoice text notes (such as "Reverse charge applies"), and granular applicability rules distinguishing between private (B2C) and corporate (B2B) transactions, tax-exempt versus taxable corporate customers, and separate rules for tickets versus sponsorships. Implement EU VAT reverse charge compliance automatically based on customer type and location, apply tax rules to all countries or specific country lists (such as EU member states), and assign different tax rules per ticket type with priority ordering when multiple rules could apply. Support for both domestic and cross-border taxation scenarios ensures compliance with tax regulations across continents, with automatic tax calculation during checkout and proper e-invoice generation with embedded tax details. 

- For Event Organizers: Differentiated Badge Designs per Ticket Type - Create distinct badge designs for different attendee categories to enable instant visual identification and access control. Assign multiple badge designs per ticket type with default selection, configure separate badge layouts for speakers, sponsors, VIP attendees, exhibitors, organizers, and general participants using the visual badge designer with dynamic fields, and customize badge content to display ticket type names, add-on indicators, and custom registration field data. Design badges with custom dimensions for different badge holder sizes, create two-sided badges with front and back content, support multi-page badges (up to 4 pages) for fan-fold printers, enable print-at-home badge options for pre-event printing, and automatically populate badge fields with attendee data including names, companies, job titles, countries, profile photos, QR codes, and custom branding elements, ensuring each attendee category receives appropriately styled credentials that clearly communicate their role and entitlements at the event. 

- For Event Organizers: Multiple Payment Methods and Providers - Accept payments through integrated payment providers including Stripe for credit/debit cards with Apple Pay and Google Pay support, manual bank transfer with customizable payment instructions, regional providers for localized processing. Enable multiple payment methods simultaneously per event with custom sort ordering for payment option priority, configure provider-specific settings for each payment gateway, track payment status through comprehensive states (Started, Pending, Completed, Failed, Underpaid, Overpaid), process webhook notifications for automatic payment confirmation, support partial payments and balance reconciliation, manage multi-currency transactions with currency conversion, and provide attendees with flexible payment choices that match their preferences and geographic location, reducing payment friction and increasing successful registration completion rates.

- For Event Organizers: Legal Compliance and Registration Agreements - Ensure legal compliance by requiring attendees to agree to event-specific legal documents during registration. Upload and manage registration agreements, Terms of Service, Data Privacy statements, and custom legal documents, create document versions with upload date tracking for audit trails, configure agreement requirements for different registration contexts (ticket purchases, speaker registration, organizer account creation, paid versus free events), and provide multilingual legal documents matching event language support for international attendees. Display legal documents during checkout with mandatory agreement checkboxes, track consent with stored agreements linked to user profiles for compliance verification, maintain complete legal audit trails showing which attendees agreed to which document versions and when, and update legal documents per event or organizer level to ensure registration processes meet GDPR, privacy regulations, and contractual requirements across all jurisdictions where your events operate.

- For Event Organizers: Comprehensive Ticket Management and Financial Document Access - Browse and manage all tickets with powerful search and filtering capabilities including full-text search across ticket fields, status filtering (Issued, Paid, Refunded, Cancelled, Underpaid, Overpaid, Refund Requested, Cancellation Requested), ticket type filtering with multi-select, customer and assigned attendee filtering, country and geographic filtering, voucher code filtering, date range filtering for purchase dates, payment status filtering, assignment status filtering (Unassigned, Invited, Configured, Fully Configured), badge issuance status filtering, and custom field value filtering for any registration form field.

Experience seamless branded design with event logos, custom primary and secondary colors applied through CSS theme variables, custom fonts matching organizer branding, and clean modern layouts built with Angular Material components that eliminate generic template aesthetics. Navigate intuitive multi-step checkout flows including ticket selection and payment processing. Enjoy fully responsive design optimized for smartphones, tablets, and desktops ensuring flawless registration on any device. Registration forms integrate directly with on-site check-in systems through badge generation and print-at-home capabilities, creating efficiency from initial registration through event entry.

- For Attendees: Simple and easy Ticket Cancellation and Refund Requests - Request ticket cancellations and refunds through a streamlined self-service process from your personal ticket dashboard. Receive automated email notifications when organizers review your request, track cancellation status through your dashboard with visual status indicators and color-coded states, and access cancellation documents with PDF downloads once approved. Cancellation requests require organizer approval to ensure proper financial reconciliation and compliance. 

- For Attendees: Group Registration with Flexible Late Assignment - Purchase multiple tickets upfront during early bird pricing periods without knowing final attendee names, then assign tickets to actual attendees later when you confirm who will attend. Return later through your ticket dashboard to assign each ticket to specific attendees by filling in names, email addresses, and registration information. This flexibility enables organizations to secure early bird pricing for teams before travel approvals are finalized, eliminates the pressure to provide complete attendee lists during purchase, and supports common corporate purchasing workflows where ticket allocation decisions happen weeks or months after initial purchase.

- For Attendees: Self-Service Ticket Transfer and Reassignment - Reassign purchased and paid tickets to different attendees at any time through your personal ticket dashboard when plans change or different people need to attend. Access your tickets dashboard, select the ticket you want to reassign, and update attendee information including name, email address. The reassignment capability is controlled per ticket type, allowing organizers to enable flexible reassignment for general admission tickets while restricting transfers for special ticket categories like speaker passes or sponsor credentials that should remain with designated individuals. Reassigned tickets immediately reflect the new attendee information in organizer systems, trigger email notifications to both the previous and new ticket holders if configured, update badge generation to reflect the correct attendee name and details. This self-service flexibility eliminates the need to contact organizers for name changes due to personnel changes, travel restrictions, or last-minute substitutions, while still giving organizers control over which ticket types permit reassignment to maintain event security and attendee verification requirements.

- For Attendees: Quick and easy ticket purchase flow - Complete ticket purchase and payment quickly without filling extensive registration forms upfront, then personalize tickets with detailed information later at your convenience. Experience streamlined quick registration where you select tickets, provide minimal customer information, and complete payment in minutes, with full ticket personalization as a separate subsequent step accessible through your ticket dashboard. This separation enables rapid checkout during high-traffic registration periods, reduces cart abandonment by minimizing form friction, allows you to secure tickets immediately and complete detailed forms when you have more time, and supports scenarios where payment authorization and attendee information collection must happen at different times for organizational or approval reasons. Incomplete tickets are tracked through dedicated status management, with reminders and easy access to complete personalization before event deadlines, ensuring organizers eventually collect all required attendee data while maximizing initial conversion rates through reduced checkout complexity.

- For Attendees: Group Purchase Delegation and Management Transfer - Transfer group ticket management rights to colleagues who will actually attend the event, enabling organizational purchasing workflows where buyers and attendees are different people. Imagine this common scenario: someone from the purchasing department purchases 10 tickets during early bird pricing to secure the discount, then delegates group management rights to the department head who will attend the event and knows which team members should receive tickets. The delegation system maintains the original purchase linkage for financial and audit purposes while transferring assignment permissions including ticket assignment rights, attendee information management, cancellation request abilities, and dashboard access to view and modify group tickets. This separation of purchasing authority from attendance management reflects real corporate workflows where procurement teams handle financial transactions while department managers handle personnel logistics, eliminating the need for purchasing staff to chase down attendee details they don't have access to and empowering event attendees to self-manage ticket assignments within their purchased group allocation. 

- For Attendees: Comprehensive Event Hub and Personal Dashboard - Access your centralized event hub providing 360-degree event visibility and participation tools beyond basic registration. Navigate through configurable menu sections including Event Home, Event Info, FAQ, Speakers, Sessions, Agenda, Sponsors, Contact Us, and My Agenda, with section visibility controlled by organizers to match event structure. Browse the complete event agenda with filtering by tracks, rooms, speakers, and session types, build your personal agenda by favoriting sessions you plan to attend, and view your customized schedule separate from the full event program. Explore the sponsor directory to discover exhibitors and partners, view detailed sponsor profiles with company information and offerings, and request one-on-one meetings with sponsor representatives by browsing their available meeting slots or proposing custom meeting times and locations. Manage your tickets with real-time status tracking, access session check-in capabilities for tracking attendance, complete event surveys and feedback forms, and connect with other attendees through event networking features. For hybrid events, access online session participation tools integrated directly into your event hub, enabling virtual attendance alongside physical event features in one unified experience designed to maximize event value before, during, and after the conference.

Configure groups as public (discoverable by all attendees) or private (invitation-only), edit group details including member permissions and visibility settings, and delete groups when they've served their purpose with confirmation safeguards. Monitor group activity through integrated moderation tools showing message counts, active members, and recent conversations to identify high-engagement topics worth promoting.

## FAQs

### For Event Organizers
- For Event Organizers: Comprehensive FAQ Management System - run.events enables event organizers to create and manage multiple FAQ sections tailored to different audience types. Whether you need separate FAQs for general attendees, speakers, sponsors or exhibitors, you can easily create dedicated FAQ sections for each group. Each FAQ section can be designated as the default for its audience type, ensuring that attendees always see the most relevant information when they visit your event portal or mobile app. Event organizers can organize FAQs with custom ordering, making it easy to prioritize the most important questions at the top.

- For Event Organizers: Multilingual FAQ Support with Easy Translation Management - In today's global events, multilingual support is not optional—it's essential. run.events FAQ system is fully multilingual, allowing event organizers to create FAQs in multiple languages simultaneously. For each FAQ section, you define a primary language, and then you can easily add translations for all other event languages. This ensures that German-speaking attendees, French-speaking sponsors, and English-speaking speakers all get the same comprehensive information in their preferred language.

- For Event Organizers: Rich FAQ Content with Images, File Attachments, and Links - run.events FAQs go far beyond simple text-based question-and-answer pairs. For each FAQ answer, event organizers can add supporting images to provide visual context, attach multiple downloadable files (such as PDFs, guides, forms, or documentation), and include links to external resources or web pages. This makes FAQs a powerful knowledge base where attendees can not only read answers but also download essential documents, view visual guides, and access related online resources—all from one convenient location. Whether it's a venue map, a registration form, a tax document, or a link to your hotel booking portal, you can attach it directly to the relevant FAQ answer.

- For Event Organizers: Smart Search and Filtering for Easy FAQ Discovery - As your event FAQ library grows, finding the right information quickly becomes critical. run.events provides powerful search and filtering capabilities that allow both event organizers and attendees to instantly find the information they need. Organizers can search through all FAQs and questions by keywords, filter by audience type or language, and quickly locate specific content for editing. For attendees, the FAQ widget and portal pages include smart search that looks through question text and answer content, making it effortless to find answers even in extensive FAQ collections with hundreds of questions.

- For Event Organizers: FAQ Embeddable Web Widgets for Your Event Website - If you have a custom-built event website, run.events makes it incredibly easy to integrate your FAQs into your existing site through embeddable web widgets. The run.events FAQ widget can be embedded in any web page with just a few lines of code, and it automatically inherits your website's styling to maintain a consistent look and feel. You can configure the widget to display specific FAQ sections, choose the language, control which questions are expanded by default, and even filter by audience type. This means you maintain full control over your event website's design while leveraging run.events' powerful FAQ management capabilities behind the scenes.

### For Attendees

Whether they're looking for information about registration, venue access, speaker schedules, or sponsor booths, attendees find answers quickly without having to contact event support, reducing organizer workload and improving attendee satisfaction.

## Email Messages

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: AI-Powered Email Designer - Creating beautiful, professional-looking HTML emails has never been easier. run.events revolutionizes email design with its fully AI-powered email designer that allows you to create stunning, branded email designs simply by describing what you want. Just tell the AI what kind of email you need: "Create a welcome email for attendees with our event logo, a warm greeting, key event dates, and a call-to-action button to complete registration" or "Design a sponsor thank-you email with a professional header, sponsor logo placement, and social media links." The AI instantly generates a complete, professional email design that matches your event's branding, colors, and style. You can then refine the design through natural conversation: "Make the header image larger," "Change the button color to purple," "Add a section for speaker highlights." If you know how to use ChatGPT, you know how to create professional email designs with run.events. For users who prefer hands-on control, the platform also includes a visual drag-and-drop editor with pre-built components (headers, text blocks, images, buttons, social media links, footers) that can be customized with your branding, and even supports custom HTML and CSS code blocks for advanced users. Whether you're prompting the AI or using the visual editor, creating professional event communications has never been faster or easier.

- For Event Organizers: Email Design Templates Library - Build Once, Reuse Forever. One of the most powerful features of run.events email design system is the two-tier template library. At the event level, you can create and save multiple email designs specific to that event—welcome emails, reminder emails, post-event thank-you emails, etc. But the real power comes at the organizer level: any email design you create can be saved as an organizer-level template, making it instantly available across all your future events. This means that if you create a beautiful welcome email design for your spring conference, you can reuse that same design (with appropriate modifications) for your fall summit, winter workshop, and any other event you organize. Over time, you build a comprehensive library of professional email templates that dramatically reduces the time and effort needed to create event communications. Templates can be organized by recipient type (ticket owners, speakers, sponsors, etc.), making it easy to find the right starting point for each communication need.

- For Event Organizers: Audience-Specific Email Designs - Not all event emails should look the same. An email to general attendees should have a different tone and design than an email to VIP sponsors or keynote speakers. run.events email design system recognizes this by allowing you to categorize each email design by recipient type: Ticket Owners, Speakers, Session Owners, or Sponsor Staff. Each recipient type is color-coded for easy visual organization, making it simple to manage multiple email designs even for complex events with many different audience segments. When you create a new email design, you select the intended recipient type, and the system automatically suggests relevant templates from your library. This audience-specific approach ensures that each stakeholder group receives communications that are appropriately styled and branded for their relationship with your event.

- For Event Organizers:  Seamless Integration with Event Asset Gallery - Professional email designs often require custom images—event logos, venue photos, speaker headshots, sponsor logos, background images, and more. run.events email designer seamlessly integrates with your event's asset gallery, allowing you to access all your uploaded event images directly from within the email editor. Simply double-click or drag-and-drop to open the image gallery, select the image you need, and it's instantly inserted into your email design. Images are stored in secure cloud storage and automatically optimized for email delivery. This integration means you never have to juggle multiple tools or worry about image hosting—everything is managed within the run.events platform, with all your event assets available at your fingertips whenever you're designing an email.

- For Event Organizers: Email Design Duplication and Iteration - Event communications often follow similar patterns with small variations. You might need to send three reminder emails with slightly different content but the same overall design, or create multiple sponsor communications with consistent branding but different messaging. run.events makes this incredibly efficient with one-click email design duplication. Select any existing email design and duplicate it instantly, creating a perfect copy that you can then modify as needed. This feature dramatically speeds up your email creation workflow, allowing you to iterate quickly on successful designs rather than starting from scratch each time. Combined with the ability to edit design metadata (name, description, recipient type) separately from the visual content, you have complete flexibility to organize and evolve your email communications throughout your event lifecycle.

- For Event Organizers: From Design to Delivery - When you're ready to send your beautifully designed email, the process is seamless. Select your email design from your library, and run.events automatically renders it as a complete, email-client-compatible HTML message with embedded CSS styling. The system handles all the technical complexities of email rendering—ensuring that your design looks great in Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, and other email clients. Your design content is stored efficiently as structured data (HTML and CSS components), making it portable, version-controllable, and future-proof. Whether you're sending to a small group of VIP speakers or broadcasting to thousands of attendees, your custom-designed emails maintain their professional appearance and branding across all recipient email clients.

- For Event Organizers: Context-Aware Email Sending Throughout the Platform - Once you've created your email designs, they become available throughout the entire run.events platform wherever you need to communicate with event stakeholders. This means you don't have to navigate back to a central email center every time you want to send a message—your beautifully designed emails are accessible right where you're working. Managing tickets and need to send payment reminders to specific ticket holders? Your email designs are right there in ticket management. Reviewing speaker submissions and want to send acceptance notifications? Your speaker-specific email designs are available directly in speaker management. Working with sponsors and need to send booth assignment confirmations? Your sponsor email designs are ready in sponsor management. The same applies to attendee management, session management, and every other area of the platform. This contextual integration means you can select the relevant contacts, choose your email design, personalize the message if needed, and send—all without leaving your current workflow. It's email communication that fits naturally into how you actually work, not a separate system you have to jump to every time you need to reach out to event stakeholders.

Set active date ranges per setup to automatically transition app content between pre-event promotion mode, live event operation mode, and post-event community mode without manual configuration changes.

## Gamification 

### For Event Organizers

- For event organizers: run.events Gamifiction is an proven way to increse event engagement, to bring attendees to the sponsr and expo booths, and to increase session attendance. The principle is simple: Event organizers set up a virtual "currency", aka "coins", which they can name however they want. Organizers can set up the initial number of coins each attendee will have. Then they set up the rules, which activity brings how much coins to the attendees who are participating. Typical activities are expo booth visits, session attending, booth/expo session attending, filling out session feedback forms, completing surveys, connecting with other attendees, creating side events, etc. Organizers can set the rules how much coins each of those activities bring. Coins are then spent on giveaways, regardless if from organizers, or from partners/sponsors/exhibitors. Organizers can decide to make the coffee not free, but that it costs some small amount of coins. Giveaways on the sponsor booths can be made to be "purchasable" for coins - so a giveaway t-shirt, or a giveaway pen can cost a small amoint of coins. This is then the incentive for attendees to actually do stuff which they are otherwise reluctant to do, such as completing surveys or rating sessions. Event organizers, as well as sponsors/exhibitors can have giveaways listed in the mobile app and on the event web site, which then motivates the attendees to look what is at which booth and to have that as inspiration to visit that booth and to engage in the conversation.

- For Event Organizers: Comprehensive Giveaway Inventory and Transaction Management - Manage complete swag inventory with detailed tracking of quantities available, items already distributed, and real-time redemption monitoring for every giveaway offered by organizers and sponsors.

Track every coin transaction with detailed logs showing timestamp, attendee, company, giveaway redeemed, and coin amount spent, plus complete earning history showing which activities generated coins, when coins were awarded, and detailed activity descriptions with session names or booth identifiers. Access comprehensive leaderboards displaying attendee rankings by total coins earned and current balance, filter by country, export to Excel for analysis, and identify top performers to award prizes, recognize engagement leaders, or invite highly active attendees to exclusive experiences. Transform gamification from simple point collection into strategic business intelligence revealing which activities drive engagement, which giveaways attract attention, and which attendees demonstrate highest event investment.

### For Attendees

## AI Site Builder

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: an AI-Powered Web Site Builder. Previously, creating an event web site often meant engaging an external web agency, or spinning a WordPress web site with some "easy-to-use" web builder. Both approaches were suboptimal: engaging an external web agency would usually mean significant time and money investments, where each change would mean another delay and another waiting for things to happen. Using WordPress with "easy-to-use" page builders would inevitably mean constrains and quality compromises. With run.events Pages this changes dramatically: run.events Pages already "knows" how your event web site should be - what are main design elements such as colors, logos, and headers, what is the event about, what are the ticket types you are offering your attendees for registration, what is event agenda, speakers, sponsors, etc. You can then start prompting your web site: be it creation of "typical" event web pages, such as registration pages, agenda pages, spekaer pages, sponsor pages etc, or information pages (about event, venue page, etc), event "dashboards" that figure as the home page, or any custom page you might come up with. And all that you need are prompting skills: if you know how to use ChatGPT, you will know how to create a web page. Of course, run.events Pages also offers a powerful HTML editors, both visual and code editors, for smaller changes, or for the people who can wrangle CSS and HTML, but the primary intended use is the AI and prompting the web page. The results are visually stunning, beautiful and informative web pages which can be immediately published from run.events. To that, run.events Pages offers the AI-powered translation and publishing of multi-lingual web sites, as well as media management (central repository of images and videos) and documents and downloads management (central repository of documents which will be available for download from the web site). All web sites created with run.events Pages are of course automatically made in accordance with the latest accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2). This has been done in a great detail, for example, each time an image is uploaed to run.events Pages media manager, that image is read and described by AI, so that it is ensured that all the elements needed for the WCAG 2.2. and accessibility are immediately fulfilled. run.events Pages are by default responsove and that way easily browsable on the mobile phones and similar smaller form factor devices.

- For Event Organizers: AI-Powered SEO and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization). Every page that run.events Pages generates is natively optimized for discovery out of the box — there is no separate SEO plugin to install and no meta tags to hand-write. The AI automatically produces the SEO essentials for each page (page titles, meta descriptions, and clean, human- and search-friendly URL slugs) and keeps them consistent with the event's actual content. Beyond classic search engines, run.events Pages also applies GEO — Generative Engine Optimization — structuring and tuning page content so that the event is discoverable by, and well represented in, AI/LLM-powered search and answer engines (increasingly how attendees find events through AI assistants), not only traditional Google/Bing crawlers. Because pages are generated from the live event data model, this optimization stays current automatically as the agenda, speakers, and sponsors change, and sites publish to your own branded custom domain.

- For Event Organizers: Native Web Analytics for Your Event Site. run.events Pages and Smart Hub sites include built-in web analytics, so organizers can see how their event website is actually performing without bolting on a third-party analytics product: page views, where visitors come from, and how they engage with the content. This sits alongside run.events' precision marketing attribution (automatic UTM capture all the way down to the individual ticket) and content/video engagement metrics, giving organizers one native, end-to-end view of the funnel from the first page visit through registration and on into on-site engagement.


# run.events Events CRM

## Partner Management

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Manage all kinds of Partners across all events (customers, exhibitors, service providers...). Many event organizers work with the same companies over and over, from event to event. Be it customers, who are coming to their events as attenees, or the exhibitors who are coming year after year, or different service providers such as booth builders, caterers, tech providers, all to media and press. run.events Event CRM enables event organizers to manage the central registry of those partners on the organizational level, and then to "reuse" them from event to event. They can manage their information, their contacts, and have the "log" of the interactions that are related to that partner. Also, it is possible to assign people on event organizer's level who will be managing that partner.

- For Event Organizers: Manage partner’s staff/contacts - it is possible for the event organizers to manage people that work with those partners. For each person it is possible to track their position within the partner, their roles, their contacts, and who from the event organizer's team is "in charge" of being that person's main contact.

- For Event Organizers: Send and track email campaigns for customers, sponsors, exhibitors. Event organizers can easily select partners, or target specific contacts within the partners, by using advanced filters, and send them emails. Those can be either plain text emails, or rich HTML emails that look more like newsletters. Event Organizers can also track which partner or partner contact has got which email.

## Sponsorship Catalog

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Create Sponsorships’ Offer/Service Catalog for the Event. On the event level, organizers can decide what is the offer / the service catalog they want to offer to sponsors and exhibitors. It might be physical spaces such as booths, or kiosks, or launchpads, or coffe bikes, or whatever that is positioned on the venue map, but those can also be non-physical-space offers such as lunch sponsorships, bag inserts, sessions, or whatever the subject of the sponsorship might be. Then, event organizers can combine those items into sponsor/exhibitor packages, and say, for example that a "Platinum package" might contain a 6m x 3m booth space, bag insert, a event magazine advert, and a 30 min expo floor session. 

- For Event Organizers: Define custom sponsorship levels and benefits - beyond sponsoring catalog and sponsoring packages, organizers can define levels and benefits that come with each level, and assign the sponsir to those levels. For example, we can have a level "gold" which includes a gold sponsorship package and 5 complementary event tickets. The sponsors/exhibitors will be listed in the web site and in the mobile app under those levels. Also, one sponsor can have multiple levels, they can for example be a "Premium" level sponsor, but also sponsor the main event party and be the "Party Sponsor" level. In this case, if the event organizers wish so, that sponsor will be listed twice in the web site and mobile app, once under "Platinum" and once under "Party sponsor" levels. 

## Sponsorship salses lifecycle

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Define custom sponsors/exhibitors sales lifecycle. run.events Events CRM enables organizers to defines custom sales and onboarding cycles for sponsors and exhibitors. For example, standard sales cycle might be intitial consideration -> negotiation -> closed (contract signed) - or - decilined. However, event organizers can define custom sales cycle steps such as "initial negotiation", "hot lead", "stalled", "need more info" etc. 

- For Event Organizers: Manage Sponsors’ / Exhibitors’ Sales and Onboarding Lifecycle. run.events Events CRM offers an intuitive Kanban interface for managint sponsors and exhibitors sales and onboarding cycle. They can easily drang and drop sponsors from one sales phase into another one, leave comments, and manage the whole sales process. This way, event organizers are always in the know what they need to do with each sponsor, and what are the next impending tasks for each of the sponsors. 

- For Event Organizers: Manage contracts for sponsors and exhibitors - the event organizers can manage contracts for each sponsor, where also contracts have their own lifecycle statuses (Draft, Reserved, Signature Pending, Signed...). It is important because organizers can manage all their sponsorship and partnership contracts at one place, but also because they can track sponsors from year to year, from edition to edition, and see how sponsorship/partnership relations are being developed with each partner over the time. 

## Sponsor / exhibitor staff onboarding

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Manage and onboard exhibitor staff. Issue tickets and assign permissions. In run.events Events CRM, event organizers can easily manage and communicate with sponsors' and exhibitors' staff. They can track the participation of each of them, who is joining at the event, and who will be participating from sponsors/exhibitors side from the background without actually coming to the event. The typical scenario is that the marketing people are involved in the beginning, but potentially not joining the event, and then the sales people actually join the event. Event Organizers can easily set all of that, and assign different roles to different sponsors'/exhibitors' staff: who can collect and manage leads, who can manage tasks that are assigned to that sponsor/exhibitor, who from exhibitor's side can configure, manage, and purchase their booth and booth equipment etc. In the same way, event organizers can easily assign tickets to sponsors'/exhibitors' staff (but that's also something that sponsors and exhibitors can do in the self-service). 

## Sponsor / exhibitor tasks and work management

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Create and manage tasks for partners and exhibitors. Event organizers can easily create tasks for the sponsors and exhibitors. Those can be tasks for the individual sponsors and exhibitors, but also for categories: a tasks can be assigned to all sponsors with a specific level (e.g. gold sponsors), or to all sponsors and exhibitors which have purchased speficic service within their contracts (e.g. all sponsors who have a bag insert). Even if task has been assigned to a sponsor as a group task, managing the execution of each of those tasks is sponsor-specific. Event organizers can easily track and change the task progress for each task, but also the sponsors can change the task status from their own interface. Sponsors and exhibitors use chat interface to communicate about task status and task execution. Exhibitors have an easy and intuitive overviews over task completion, pending tasks, overdue tasks, and many more criteria.

## Lead Retrieval

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Insights into sponsor’s/exhibitor’s lead retrieval. Sponsors and exhibitors can manage their lead retrieval processes, as well as manage, qualify and export their leads in the self-service sponsors dashboard. However, sometimes sponsors and exhibitors request from the event organizers to send them the list of the retrieved leads per email, mostly in Excel or CSV formats. Event organizers can easily have access to the scanned leads of each sponsor or exhibitor and download them in the excel or CSV format, und thas fulfill requests from the sponsors. 

## Asset Management

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Managing exhibitors’ contacts, downloadable assets, and products and services info. Sponsors and exhibitors can manage their downloadable assets, such as brochures, PDFs or other materials (if their sponsorship level entitles them to that) , as well as maintain information about their products and services (also, if their sponsorship level entitles them to that) in the self-service sponsor dashboard. However, the event organizers can have insights in what sponsors and exhibitors have uploaded, and event organizers can change and manage that information if necessary. This is also useful if sponsors and exhibitors for whatever reasons ask event organizers to upload and maintain this information for them, this feature enables organizers to do so. 

## Self-service Sponsors and Exhibitor Dashboard

### For Sponsors and Exhibitors

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Self-Service Team Management and Ticket Assignment. Sponsors' representatives can in self-service manage their own team: invite people who will join the booth crew at the event, and the people who will work on the event from the backstage. Sponsors representatives can manage in self-service who from their will get the event complementary tickets (or who will get which event ticket, if there are multiple ticket types / levels available to sponsors and exheibitors), and who will have which permissions, such as lead retrieval, lead retrieval configuration, and lead retrieval exporting, or booth purchasing, booth furniture purchasing, and booth configuration, who will be in charge into managing and closing tasks from the sponsor's side, who gets all the info and notification emails from the event organizers etc. 

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Logo and Public Info Editing - Sponsors and Exhibitors can, in their own self-service sponsor dashboard, upload and maintain their information such as public description, logo, and contact information (phone, email, linkedin, addresses etc). That way they can always be on the sure that the latest and and most accurate information is on the event web. 

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: One-Tap Lead Classification Configuration. Imagine this situation: you are a sponsor, you have got three products that you want to present at the event. You just had a really good conversation what a potential lead who wants to partner with you on your product B, and has two potential hot leads for that product. You should call them as soon as possible after the event to get this done How do note this conversation? Sure writing a lengthy descriptoin is always an option, but most of the time you don't have time for that, because the next booth visitor is already waiting for you. run.events offers creation of "labels" before the event, which each sponsor and exhibitor can create for themselves, and which contain important "keywords" or "tags". Now imagine having created labels "Product A", "Product "B", "Product C", "Partner", "Hot Lead", "Only swag" etc... And after the conversation with abovementioned lead, clicking only on "5" on five-stars rating, and quickly selecting, with one tap, "Product B", "Partner", "Hot Lead". This way you will immediately after the event know how to follow up, you will remember who the person was, and why the conversation was important. This is an ultra-efficient lead qualification in real time.

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard and run.events mobile app: Lead Retrieval - run.events offers industry's best and fastest lead retrieval. Sponsor representatives and/or event organizers can easily select who from sponsors' staff is entitled to the lead retrieval. Those who are, will see the "Lead Retrieval" option in their regular mobile app (there is no separate mobile app needed, everything is in the run.events mobile app). Retrieving leads is as easy as scanning atendee's badge. After the badge is scanned, the sponsor can easily qualify the lead by settint the lead rating with the 1-5 stars rating control, select lead qualification by tapping predefined lead labels for lead qualification, or writing a textual lead note/description. If the event uses gamification and there are sponsor giveaways entered in the run.events, sponsor can also with one tap select which giveaways have been handed out to the lead. Also, immediatelly upon badge scanning, sponsors can see scanned lead's contact data,  and start chatting with the lead directly. 

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Lead Analytics and Export. run.events offers an extensive lead analysis for sponsors and exhibitors, where they can get the breakdowns by lead quality, by lead labels, sponsors' personell, and many other information and dimensions. Also, detailed contact and registration information for each retrieved lead is displayed in the sponsors dashboard. Sponsors can easily download all the leads in a structured Excel or CSV format, and easily import them into any target system (CRM) that they use. 

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Booth Events and Side Events Management - Sponsors and exhibitors can easily create and manage their own booth events and side events directly through their self-service sponsor dashboard, transforming their booth from a static display into an active event hub. Whether organizing product demonstrations, executive roundtables, networking sessions, or educational workshops, sponsors have complete control. Each booth event can be configured as either public (open to all event attendees who can discover it in the mobile app and event portal) or private (invitation-only for selected attendees). Sponsors set the event name, description, date and time, location (which can be the booth itself or another venue), maximum attendee capacity, and upload a custom event image to make it visually appealing. What makes this feature truly powerful is the automatic integration: when a sponsor creates a booth event, the system automatically creates a dedicated chat group for that event, enabling sponsors to communicate with registered attendees before, during, and after the event. Attendees can RSVP through the mobile app, receive notifications, and participate in event discussions, creating a complete mini-event experience within the larger conference. This transforms sponsors from passive exhibitors into active event creators, driving booth traffic and creating memorable experiences that generate leads and build relationships.

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Prize Drawings and Gamification Integration - One of the most powerful tools for driving booth traffic is the integrated prize drawing system that sponsors can configure directly in their dashboard. When creating a booth event or side event, sponsors can attach one or multiple prizes to that event, complete with prize name, description, estimated value, professional images, and the number of winners to be drawn. But the real innovation is in the flexible eligibility rules that sponsors can configure. Sponsors can choose from four different drawing eligibility options: "Everyone" (all event ticket holders can win), "Booth Visitors" (only attendees who had their badges scanned at the sponsor's booth qualify), "Present Attendees" (only those who physically attended the booth event and scanned a special QR code are eligible), or "Group Members" (only participants in the event's chat group can win). This flexibility allows sponsors to incentivize specific behaviors—want to drive booth traffic? Use "Booth Visitors." Want to reward attendees who came to your product demo? Use "Present Attendees." Each prize drawing gets a unique 16-digit QR code that attendees scan with the run.events mobile app to register for the drawing. On the sponsor dashboard, the prize drawing interface features an engaging animated shuffle before revealing the winner, and sponsors can draw multiple winners if the prize quantity is greater than one. The system automatically tracks who has already won, prevents duplicate winners, and can even restrict prizes to specific attendee types (VIP attendees only, for example). Once sponsors confirm a winner, the system records it permanently and can send notifications. This gamification creates excitement, drives engagement, and gives sponsors a measurable way to attract and qualify leads through fun, interactive experiences.

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Meeting Scheduling and Booking System - run.events provides sponsors and exhibitors with a comprehensive Calendly-like meeting scheduling system built directly into their dashboard, enabling them to offer bookable time slots for one-on-one meetings with attendees. This is especially valuable for sponsors who want to have meaningful conversations with qualified prospects rather than just collecting business cards. Sponsors create available meeting slots by specifying start time, end time, meeting location (booth, private meeting room, coffee area, etc.), and optional notes about what the meeting will cover. Each slot has a status: Free (available for booking, shown in green), Reserved (tentatively booked awaiting confirmation, shown in orange), or Booked (confirmed meeting, shown in purple). What makes this system powerful is its dual-direction capability: sponsors can proactively search for specific attendees by name or company and invite them to meetings, OR attendees can browse the sponsor's available time slots and request meetings themselves. When either party initiates a meeting request, the other receives an email notification and can accept, decline, or respond "maybe" directly from their dashboard. The system intelligently manages slot states—when a meeting is accepted, the slot automatically transitions to "Booked" and becomes unavailable; if declined, it returns to "Free" for others to book. Each meeting automatically includes an integrated chat room where sponsor and attendee can communicate before, during, and after the meeting, sharing documents, links, or follow-up information. Sponsors can assign specific team members to handle different meetings (perfect for larger sponsor teams), and remarkably, when a meeting is accepted, the system automatically creates a lead record in the sponsor's lead retrieval system, ensuring that meeting conversations don't fall through the cracks and are properly tracked in the sales funnel. This transforms the chaotic "catch attendees at the booth" model into a professional, scheduled meeting experience that respects everyone's time and maximizes conversation quality.

- For Sponsors and Exhibitors - Self-service Sponsors Dashboard: Attendee Discovery and Meeting Organization - Beyond just waiting for attendees to request meetings, sponsors have powerful tools to proactively identify and reach out to the right prospects. The sponsor dashboard includes an intelligent attendee search feature that allows sponsors to search through all event attendees by name or company, with real-time results appearing as they type. The search respects attendee privacy settings (only showing attendees who opted into public profiles) and displays rich information: attendee name, profile photo, company, job title, professional tagline, biography, and attendee role badges (VIP, Speaker, etc.). This enables sponsors to identify high-value prospects—imagine a software vendor searching for "CTO" or "Chief Technology Officer" to find the right decision-makers, or a recruitment sponsor searching for attendees from specific companies. Once the sponsor finds the right prospect, they can immediately organize a meeting: the system presents a streamlined two-step process where sponsors first select the attendee, then either choose from their pre-created free meeting slots (which auto-fills the time and location) or create a custom meeting time outside their regular schedule. Sponsors can add a personalized note explaining why they want to meet, what they'd like to discuss, or what value they can offer. The meeting request is instantly sent to the attendee with all details, and sponsors can track the response status in real-time. This proactive meeting organization capability turns sponsors from passive exhibitors hoping the right people stop by their booth into active networkers who can strategically target and engage with the exact attendees who matter most to their business objectives, dramatically improving ROI on sponsorship investment.

# run.events Abstract and Agenda Management

## Content Selection

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Setting up Content Teams. Event Organizers can easily set up multi-person and multi-disciplinary content teams, and assign each team member permissions which decide if they can rate and judge all submited papers / session proposals, or only those from specific buckets. 

- For Event Organizers: Session / Abstracts rating kanban. Sessions are displayed in kanban lanes, in rub.events terminology called "buckets", where event content team can review them, rate them (rating can be simple 1-5 ratings or custom session rating forms) and then content owners can easily drag and drop them to appropriate buckets. If customers are using call for speakers / call for abstracts, all the submitted session proposals are coming into the "In Evaluation" bucket, from where they can be easily moved or classified. Standard buckets are "In Evaluation", "Accepted", "Declined", "Cancellation Requested" and "Cancelled", and the organizers can create as much of custom buckets as they want which can be of the type "Evaluation", "Accepted" or "Declined". This way, the large number of sessions can easily be split and broken down ointo smaller chunks which are easier to manage. Content team members can either be assigned to all buckets (if they are allowed to rate all the sessions) or to the specific buckets, if they have permissions to rate only sessions from specific buckets. One session can be in only one bucket, it cannot be in multiple buckets. 

## Calls for abstracts / speakers

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Setting up custom forms for calls for sessions / calls for abstracts. It is up to each event organizer to define which information should be provided in their custom calls for sessions / calls for abstracts, since each industry, each event are different. Having flexibility to create custom session submission forms helps event organizers to support exactly those content selection processes they need.

- For Event Organizers: Setting up custom forms for speakers. It is up to each event organizer to define which information about speakers should be provided in their custom calls for sessions / calls for abstracts, since each industry, each event are different. Having flexibility to create specific custom speaker forms helps event organizers to go beyond the standard "Name/Biography/Image" standard speaker forms, but rather co create custom fields which will support different types of professional credentials and acclamations. Custom speaker forms can also be used to collect personal and travel information from spekaers, and to have it centralized at one place.

- For Event Organizers: Call for Speakers / Call for Content / Call for Abstracts settings. Event organizers can setup a very detailed and very granular call for content settings, which range from setting basic data ranges from when to when is the call for content open, until whe the session or speaker profile modifications are possible, is there a maximum number of submitted sessions per spaker, as well as setting detailed speaker information for potential and selected speaerks, and creating speaker FAQs for potential and selected speakers.  

- For Event Organizers: Speaker Labels - use configurable labels (kind of tags) to easily categorize your speakers. Speaker labels can be public (they will be shown in the web and in the mobile app together with speakers details) or private (use for your own classification, not visible to speakers or attendees). Labels can also contain logos or images, so you can assign speaker acclamations and credetntials, which comes very handy for displaying speaker credentials, or company logos, or whatever additional graphical information within the speaker profile. Pull all kind of statistics and analytics based on labels at any time. Multiple labels can be assigned to one speaker. 

- For Event Organizers: Session Labels - user configurable labels (kind of tags) to easily categorize your sessions. Labels can be used for everything: to define event and session tracks, to denote session depth/technical level, to denote different session topics, etc. Whatever series of data you can think of that you want to classify your sessions, labels are the way to do that.  Session labels can be public (they will be shown in the web and in the mobile app together with speakers details) or private (use for your own classification, not visible to speakers or attendees). Labels can contain logos and images, so you can assign any kind of logos to session description, which comes very handy for displaying company logos, or whatever additional graphical information within the session information. Pull all kind of statistics and analytics based on labels at any time. Multiple labels can be assigned to one session. 

### For Content Team Memebers

- For Content Team Members: Easily rate sessions that are assigned to them. It can be all sessions, or only sessions from specific buckets. Also, ratings can be on the rating scale (can't have, not awesome, it's ok, awesome, must have), or through the custom session rating forms. Content owners then have insights in every team member's ratings, and they can easily comprise the agenda based on individual ratings.

## Attendee Feedback

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Setting up custom forms for attendee feedback. run.events offers strong attendee session feedback capabilities, and one of them is the custom feedback forms. If event organizers want to have attendee session feedback (that session attendees can rate sessions they have visited), then custom feedback forms are of crucial importance. Those forms can be very simple, as simple as a single rating field, where attendees can rate sessions from 1 to 5 stars, or very deliberate, long rating forms which are more common at the scientific conferences. 

- For Event Organizers: Session Check-In and Attendee Feedback Settings. Event organizers can set if they want to track which attendee has attendeed which session, and if they do, how they want to do that: do they want to have people on the session rooms doors (session hosts) scanning attendee badges, or do they want to use self-service session-checkin capabilities (which can be incentived with gamification and coins so that the attendees really participate in session check-in and session feedback collection). Organizers can decide if they want to enable session check-in at all, if they want to allow the attendees to check in into multiple sessions that are in the same time slot (those are the use cases when attendee leaves one session and joins another within the same slot, but can potentially be misused in the gamification), if they want to enable attendee session feedback at all, and if yes, if attendees need to be checked into the session before submitting feedback (which needs to be turned off if event organizers don't want session check-in, but still want session feedback, which then also opens the possibility for trying to game the system with attendee session feedbacks. Then event organizers can also decide if they want to show the session feedback to the speakers and to the content team members. Usually it is a good practice first to manually skim through the session feedback, and to remove all irellevant / malicious comments, before opening the session feedback to the speakers and to the content team.

## Session Management

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Session Management - when you need advanced session management, with advanced filtering, sorting and group operations, Session Management screen is the feature to use. This is where users can easily create subsets of sessions, move sessions in batches between buckets, or change session statuses in batches.  Publish sessions easily in the mobile app and in the web.

- For Event Organizers: Managing Assets, Materials, Uploads, and Papers - Even if speakers can manage their sesison assets (such as presentation slides, papers, PDFs, or other type of materials) in a self-service, very often event organizers are required to do that for them, which this feature enables. Session assets can be uploads or links to external assets. 

## Speaker Management

### For Agenda Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Speaker Management and Communications. - This feature enables organizers to easily search, filter, and sort speakers, look into their data or change their data, add new speakers, and change speaker statuses in batches. This is also the feature from where speaker communciations are managed: easily filter and select speakers that you want to contact, and send either plain emails or rich HTML newsletters to them. Publish speakers easily in the mobile app and in the web.

## Agenda Builder

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Agenda Builder - This is the best in class agenda builder on the market: drag and drop sessions and non-content blocks (such as coffe breaks, lunchs, registration windows, parties etc) easily to the calendar, set and change their length, move the sessions across rooms, easily swap sessions, etc. Publish agenda easily in mobile app and in the web. 

## Dashboards and Reporting

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Dashboards and Reporting - pull all the kind of reports and statistics on sessions, speakers, session attendance, etc.

- For Event Organizers: Session Feedback Dashboards - if you are using session feedback, pull any kind of session feedback reports (session ratings, statistics on custom feedback questions, etc). 

## Digital Signage

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Digital Signage. Display "currently going" and next two upcoming session at screens of any size and forms in front of the session rooms. Digital Signage automatically reads from the agenda and displays correct sessions. If you change agenda on the fly, digital signage will be automatically update, there is no need then to deal with the digital signage separately. Also, there is "Currently ongoing event-wide" feature, where all currently ongoing sessions, in all the rooms, and all the tracks are displayed. This is very useful for the expo halls, large foyers, or any other places where attendees gather in large numbers, so that they can always have insights what is currently going on the program. 

## Speaker Dashboard

### For Speakers

- For Speakers: Speaker Dashboard, Session / Abstract Submission - speakers can easily, in self-service, create their speaker profiles and submit their session abstract/proposals. They will need to fill in the speaker and session custom forms that organizers define.  

- For Speakers: Speaker Dashboard, Session Status Review - speakers can at any point of time log in their speaker dashboard and see their session submission status. 

- For Speakers: Speaker Dashboard - speakers can at any time log into their dashboard and check all the speaker communications, Speaker-related FAQs, etc. 

- For Speakers: Self-Service Profile Management and Session Portfolio management - If speakers are submitting more often sessions to different events through run.events, it makes sense for them to create run.events speaker profiles, and to manage their biography and session portfolio there. That way they can submit their session to different events from their portfolio in a few clicks.

- For Speakers: Feedback Review - When attendee session feedback is made available to them, they can log into the self-service speaker dashboard, and easily review their session feedback, and get feedback statistics based on the multiple different factors. 

- For Speakers: Uploading Assets, Materials, Uploads, and Papers - Speakers can manage their sesison assets (such as presentation slides, papers, PDFs, or other type of materials) in a self-service through the speakers dashboard. Session assets can be uploads or links to external assets

### For Attendees

- For attendes: Session feedback. If the organizers have set up session feedback forms, attendees will be able to rate sessions through those forms either in the mobile app or in run.events Smart Hub, as soon as the session finishes. If they are using mobile app, they will even get a push notification as soon as the session finishes with the rating form attached to that push notification.

# run.events Expo and Booth Management (later with re:virtual)

## Booth Configuration and Management

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Professional Booth Management System - run.events provides a comprehensive booth and exhibition management system that scales from small exhibitions to large expo halls with hundreds of spaces. The system uses a modular component-based architecture where organizers create reusable booth templates, furniture catalogs, floor options, and utility services. Exhibitors mix and match these components to build their booth configuration while organizers maintain oversight through status workflows and approval processes.

- For Event Organizers: Booth Templates Library - Create and manage reusable booth templates defining physical dimensions (width, height, depth), base pricing, and design specifications. Organizers can use platform-provided templates (standard sizes like 3x3m, 6x3m) or create event-specific custom templates. Templates include printable areas—specific zones where exhibitors place branding, logos, and graphics—with attached design files showing booth layout and available branding zones. Templates can be marked active/inactive, sorted, and organized by type and size.

- For Event Organizers: Booth Furniture and Props Catalog - Build a comprehensive catalog of furniture and props from basic items (tables, chairs, shelving) to specialized equipment (monitor stands, refrigerators, storage, promotional stands). Use the platform's default library or create event-specific options. Each item includes name, description, dimensions, pricing, maximum quantity, and optional printable areas for branded pieces. Furniture is categorized by type and can be restricted to specific booth templates, giving exhibitors a curated selection without coordinating multiple vendors.

- For Event Organizers: Booth Floor Options Configuration - Define floor surface options including carpet (multiple colors), wood, vinyl, premium options, branded graphics, or no floor. Each floor type has pricing, visual preview, and description. Organizers set defaults and configure different pricing for different booth sizes (e.g., 6x3m vs 3x3m pricing). Having clear options with visual previews helps exhibitors make informed aesthetic and budget decisions.

- For Event Organizers: Booth Utilities and Services Management - Configure available utilities such as electrical power (1kW, 3kW, 5kW), internet (WiFi, ethernet), water, compressed air, phone lines, and waste disposal. Each utility has pricing, description, and availability settings. Mark utilities as required/mandatory (included in all booths) or optional add-ons. Restrict utilities to specific booth templates and set maximum quantities for limited resources. This centralized management ensures all booth infrastructure needs are tracked, priced, and coordinated through one system.

- For Event Organizers: Individual Booth Creation and Assignment - Create booths by assigning names/numbers ("Booth A-101"), selecting templates or custom dimensions, and assigning exhibitors/sponsors as occupants. Add public comments (visible to exhibitors) and internal comments (organizer notes). View complete booth order summaries with running total costs. Booths progress through status workflow: Draft (configuration), Constructing (setup ready), Published (finalized). Support both template-based and fully custom-sized booths with individualized pricing for special requests.

- For Event Organizers: Printable Areas and Design Specification Management - Define printable areas (design zones) on booth templates and furniture where exhibitors place branding, logos, and graphics.

- For Event Organizers: Integration with Sponsorship Packages and CRM - Fully integrated with run.events Events CRM and sponsorship management. Include booths in sponsorship packages (e.g., "Gold Package" with 6x3m booth, premium floor, furniture, utilities). When sponsors purchase packages, booths are automatically created and assigned.

# run.events Online and Hybrid Events

## Event Configuration

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Flexible Online and Hybrid Session Configuration - Transform any session into an online or hybrid experience by marking sessions or entire rooms as online with configurable streaming options. Individual sessions can have dedicated streams with independent streaming URLs and settings, perfect for keynotes or premium content requiring separate broadcast quality. Alternatively, entire rooms can be designated as online rooms where all sessions share unified streaming settings, ideal for multi-session tracks that maintain consistent broadcast infrastructure throughout the day. Hybrid sessions support both in-person and remote attendees simultaneously, with physical room assignments for on-site participants and streaming URLs for virtual viewers, maximizing attendance flexibility and event reach.

## Streaming Administration

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Professional Live Streaming - Manage live streaming directly from Smart Hub through integrated cloud encoding, eliminating external platforms. Configure streams with six encoding profiles from 360p mobile to 4K Ultra HD. The admin interface auto-generates RTMP URLs and stream keys for broadcast software like OBS or StreamYard. Visual dashboards show real-time stream status, playback URLs, and encoding settings, with streams progressing through clear states from configuration to live broadcasting to cleanup.

- For Event Organizers: Room-Level and Session-Level Streaming Control - Choose room-level streaming where one stream serves all sessions in a room, or session-level streaming with independent configurations per session. Room streams maintain viewer continuity for back-to-back sessions, while session streams provide flexibility for different quality levels or separate setups. Configure, start, pause, and stop streams through admin controls with automatic HLS URL generation. Streams remain private during testing, becoming visible only when organizers publish them.

## Viewer Experience

### For Attendees

- For Attendees: Seamless Live Session Viewing in Smart Hub and Mobile App - Watch live and hybrid sessions directly in Smart Hub event websites and mobile app without external platforms. Browse the agenda, click sessions to view detail pages, and watch embedded live video when broadcasting. Session pages display professional video players with HLS streaming for smooth playback across desktop, tablet, and mobile. Sessions clearly indicate format—in-person only, online only, or hybrid—helping attendees plan participation and access content their preferred way.

## Hybrid Event Capabilities

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Unified Management of In-Person and Virtual Attendees - Run hybrid events where physical and remote attendees experience the same content through unified management. Sell tickets for in-person and virtual attendance with different pricing, track check-ins separately for physical and online participants, and provide appropriate access for each mode. Physical attendees receive badges and venue access, while virtual attendees get streaming access through Smart Hub or mobile apps. Session tracking captures both physical check-ins and online viewing for complete analytics. Post-event, recordings remain accessible in the same Smart Hub pages, creating a permanent content library.

### For Attendees

- For Attendees: Flexible Attendance Options for Every Schedule - Register for in-person attendance to network face-to-face, or choose virtual attendance to participate from anywhere without travel costs. Mix attendance modes throughout multi-day events by attending keynotes virtually while joining specific sessions in person. Watch sessions live or access recordings on-demand from your event hub in Smart Hub. Session pages show clear format indicators—in-person only, online only, or hybrid—enabling informed decisions about attendance priorities.

# run.events Intelligence

> **run.events Intelligence is the platform's newest product, currently in early access and rolling out to organizers.** It turns the data your events already generate into answers you can act on — in plain language, looking both backward at how your events performed and forward at where they're headed. There is no dashboard to learn, no report to configure, and no query to build: you simply ask.

## Ask Your Events Anything

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Conversational Analytics in Plain Language - Talk to run.events Intelligence the way you'd ask a sharp colleague who happens to know every figure of every event you've ever run. Ask questions like "How are we pacing versus last year at this point?", "Which ticket type is selling slower than it should be?", or "Where are most of this year's registrations coming from?" and get an answer back in seconds, drawn straight from your real records and rendered as a clean chart with a plain-language explanation beside it. If you know how to use ChatGPT, you know how to use run.events Intelligence: there is no dashboard to learn, no report to configure, and no query language to master. The assistant handles follow-up questions in context, suggests starter questions to get you going, lets you switch any answer between chart and table views, copy or regenerate responses, and export the underlying data to Excel or CSV for deeper analysis and stakeholder reporting. The questions you'd normally park for "I'll pull that and get back to you tomorrow" you now ask in the meeting and move on with the answer, turning yourself from the person who gathers the numbers into the person who acts on them.

- For Event Organizers: Curated Dashboards with AI-Written Narration - Alongside the open-ended chat, run.events Intelligence provides ready-made dashboard cards covering the metrics that matter most—ticket sales, revenue, average price, unique attendees, and refund rates, broken down by country, channel, ticket type, category, industry, or time period—each rendered as a visualization you can open with a single click. Every dashboard is accompanied by AI-generated narration that reads your numbers and describes, in plain language, what is actually happening: which segments are rising, which are slipping, and how this compares to where you were before. The narration is grounded in an automatically-assembled brief about your specific event—its dates, capacity, ticket lineup, sell-through, and prior-edition context—so the commentary is always specific to your event rather than generic. The result is an analytics surface that not only shows you the chart but tells you what it means.

- For Event Organizers: Understand Who's Really in the Room — and Who's Drifting Away - Filling the room once is good business; filling it with the same people year after year is how events actually grow. run.events Intelligence lets you decode the composition of your audience—returning attendees versus first-timers, with breakdowns by industry, role, and seniority—and, crucially, compare that composition across editions to see how your audience is shifting over time. Surface the signals that hide inside headline totals: a healthy first-timer count can mask a quiet exodus of your most loyal, long-time attendees, and run.events Intelligence brings that drift to the surface while there's still time to act. Spot which industries and roles are rising and which are fading, identify the segments most at risk of not returning, and turn that insight into targeted re-engagement instead of a generic blast reminder, so the leaky bucket becomes a sealed one and growth compounds edition over edition.

## AI-Powered Attendance Forecasting

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Know Your Number Before the Doors Open - Ask the one question that has never had a good answer before—"At this rate, where do we land on the day, and how confident are you?"—and run.events Intelligence answers it. The AI learns from how your own comparable past editions actually sold, day by day, at the same distance from their doors, and projects your most-likely final attendance for an upcoming event weeks before it happens. The answer is never a fortune-teller's single number: it's an honest most-likely figure with a confidence range around it ("on current pace you finish around here, and almost certainly between here and here"), visualized as a complete sell-through trajectory with a confidence band across the days remaining until your event. And it knows its own limits—when there isn't enough comparable history to forecast responsibly, it tells you so rather than inventing a number you can't trust. This is foresight, not fortune-telling: a defensible figure you can take to the board.

- For Event Organizers: Forecasts That Explain Themselves - A forecast you can't interrogate is just another number to take on faith, so every forecast in run.events Intelligence explains itself on demand. Ask the assistant to explain the projection and it walks you through exactly how it got there—which of your past editions it compared against, where this event currently sits on its sell-through curve, how much of the typical selling window has elapsed, and how that translates into the projected finish. You can even click any individual point on the forecast trajectory to ask "why this number, on this day?" and get a grounded, plain-language explanation for that specific moment. As real sales arrive, the forecast updates and its confidence range tightens—wide early in the campaign, narrowing toward near-certainty as the event approaches—so you always understand not just what the forecast says, but why, and how sure it is.

- For Event Organizers: Early Warning When Your Pace Slips - The painful surprise in events is the soft year you discover with three weeks left, too late for anything except panic. run.events Intelligence is built to catch that early. By continuously comparing how this year is selling against how your successful past editions sold at the same point, it surfaces an at-risk pace weeks before you'd otherwise notice—while there's still real time to add a marketing push, revisit the pricing on a slow-moving tier, or lean on the channels that are converting. Your events stop surprising you: the bad year becomes a problem you see coming and manage, instead of a number you discover on the night. Forecastable revenue is manageable revenue.

## Cross-Event Benchmarking

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Benchmark Against "Events Like Yours" - Even before you have years of your own history to compare against, run.events Intelligence gives you a meaningful frame of reference by benchmarking your event against comparable events on the platform. It matches on structural characteristics—event category, geography, capacity band, price tier, and duration—and progressively broadens the comparison set until it finds enough similar events to produce a trustworthy benchmark, so first-time and niche events still get a useful "events like yours" read rather than a blank screen. The benchmark is privacy-safe by construction: it is built exclusively from anonymized, aggregate figures, and no other organizer's event is ever identifiable, named, or exposed in any answer. This means a brand-new organizer gets a credible sense of where they stand from their very first event, while a seasoned one gets external context to complement their own history.

## Automatic Cross-Edition History Reconciliation

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Untangle Years of Event History Automatically - You cannot compare across your own events until someone untangles them, and run.events Intelligence does that untangling for you instead of leaving it as your afternoon's homework. Across editions, the same things drift: last year's "Early Bird" is this year's "Super Saver" and next year's "Advance"; an event gets recorded under a slightly different name each year; registration fields and their values change over time. run.events Intelligence uses AI to recognize these as the same thing playing the same role—lining up your editions into a single comparable series, matching ticket types to their canonical equivalents, and aligning custom registration fields and their values across years. Each suggested match comes with a confidence score, and exact matches are recognized automatically. This is the quiet, unglamorous work that makes everything else possible: clean, comparable history that powers accurate cross-edition analytics, forecasting, and benchmarking, produced for you rather than by you.

- For Event Organizers: Review and Confirm with a Click - run.events Intelligence proposes; you approve—the AI never silently rewrites your history. Every suggested match lands in a review workspace where you confirm with a click, and once confirmed, that part of your history is clean from then on. The workspace is built for speed: drag and drop to move a ticket type or field into the right group, split a group that was merged too aggressively, reject a match that doesn't belong, or bulk-apply all the high-confidence suggestions at once. Only matches you've confirmed feed your analytics, so your reports always reflect groupings you actually trust—and the review is an invitation, never a gate: your day-to-day answers keep working while you tidy the history at your own pace.

## Multilingual Intelligence

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Ask and Answer in Your Language - Today's events are global, and so is run.events Intelligence. Ask your questions in your own language and get answers—charts, narration, and forecast explanations—back in the same language, so the entire conversational analytics experience works for international teams without anyone switching to English. The multilingual capability spans both the assistant's understanding of your questions and the plain-language explanations it writes back, making the platform's intelligence equally accessible to a German-speaking finance lead, a French-speaking marketing manager, and an English-speaking event director working on the same event.

## Trust, Privacy, and Governance

### For Event Organizers

- For Event Organizers: Answers Grounded in Your Real Numbers — Built Not to Make Things Up - The fear people carry over from consumer chatbots—that AI "makes things up"—is exactly the thing run.events Intelligence is engineered not to do. When you ask how a ticket type sold, the figure comes out of your actual records: it is retrieved, not guessed, and the system is wired so that the numbers it states are numbers it looked up. The AI's job is to explain and narrate; the numbers always come from your data. And the forecast is honest about its own confidence—it gives you a range rather than false precision, and tells you when it doesn't have enough history to answer responsibly instead of inventing something. A tool that knows what it doesn't know is a tool you can rely on, and run.events Intelligence was engineered for scrutiny, not to dodge it.

- For Event Organizers: Your Data Is Yours Alone — EU-Sovereign and Compliant - run.events Intelligence only ever sees and speaks about your events. One organizer's numbers are walled off from every other organizer's at the deepest level of the system—there is no shared pool, no leakage, and no "learning from everyone": your history works for you and stays with you, and your data is never used to train foundation models. Built on the platform's EU-hosted, EU-sovereign AI infrastructure, run.events Intelligence carries the same governance posture as the rest of run.events: one-click opt-in/opt-out control over AI features, full EU AI Act transparency about how every answer and recommendation is generated, GDPR-native data subject rights, and complete audit trails of all AI operations and data access for compliance reporting. The two questions every board and security team asks—"can it be wrong without telling us?" and "is our data safe?"—both have clean, confident answers.

### Digital Signage - Setup and Configuration Guide

> Step-by-step instructions to configure real-time digital displays for event sessions in run.events, including URLs, slugs, and room GUIDs.

**Published:** June 25, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/digital-signage-setup-and-configuration-guide

**Digital Signage — Setup and Configuration Guide**

Digital Signage in run.events is a lightweight, standalone web page designed **exclusively for displaying real‑time event information**. It is typically used on hallway screens, room displays, or digital totems to show the **current session**, **upcoming sessions**, or the **remaining agenda for the day**. Its purpose is to ensure attendees always see up‑to‑date information without requiring access to the mobile app or event website.

Digital Signage updates automatically at key agenda moments, making it ideal for venues where information must stay accurate and visible at all times.

**What Digital Signage Shows**

Digital Signage pages pull live data from your event and display:

- **Agenda      screens** — show all remaining sessions for the current day.
- **Room      screens** — show the current session in a specific room, including:
    - Session       title
    - Speaker(s)
    - Start       Time
    - QR       code (if Self Check‑in is enabled)
    - Two       next sessions with title and Speaker name

All data is dynamic. When a session ends, it disappears from the list; Automatically showing the next session before it even starts. 

**What You Need to Set Up Digital Signage**

To activate Digital Signage, you must collect three elements:

- **Event      Slug**
- **Room      Guid**
- **Digital      Signage URLs** (Agenda + Room Display)

**Where to Find the Required Information**

**Event Slug**

You can find the Event Slug in two places:

- In      the URL of your event

Code

[https://screen.runevents.io/pages/sessionByRoom.ht...](https://screen.runevents.io/pages/sessionByRoom.html?EventSlug=YOUR_EVENT_SLUG&amp;roomGuid=YOUR_ROOM_GUID)

**Behaviour and Update Rules**

Digital Signage updates automatically at:

- Session      **start**
- Session      **end**
- Moments      defined by **Self Check**‑**in allowed before start/end**
- **Every      5 minutes**

You may also refresh the page manually if needed.

Additional notes:

- Non‑content      sessions are not shown
- Room      name changes do **not** affect functionality
- Long      session or room names may be truncated
- Both      **horizontal and vertical** screens are supported
- Background      colors follow your event’s **Primary** and **Secondary** colors
- Speaker      label colors are also applied

Digital Signage provides a simple, reliable way to display real‑time session information throughout your venue. Once configured with the Event Slug, Room Guid, and the correct URLs, it updates automatically and requires no further maintenance during the event.

**Configuration settings for Side events, Booth events and Gamification**

The run.events platform allows organizers to enhance attendee engagement by enabling three key interactive features: Attendee Side Events, Sponsor Booth Events, and Gamification. These settings can be activated at the event level to support networking, sponsor visibility, and attendee participation.

**Attendee Side Events**

**Attendee Side Events** allow participants to organise small onsite activities that enhance networking, spark conversations, and create meaningful interactions throughout the conference. These activities appear in the mobile app under the Social tab and are fully attendee‑driven.

Learn more: [Attendee Side Events Mobile App Experience | Mobile App | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/article/attendee-side-events-mobile-app-experience)

**Sponsor Booth events**

**Sponsor Booth Events** enable sponsors to organise their own mini‑events directly from their Sponsorship Dashboard. These may include product demos, presentations, meet‑and‑greets, prize drawings, or other activities designed to attract attendees to their booth.

Sponsors can host these activities at their booth or any other designated location to drive engagement and create meaningful interactions.

**Managing Sponsor Booth Events (for Organizers)**

Sponsor Booth Events allow sponsors to create and manage their own mini‑events directly from their **Sponsorship Dashboard**. These activities help sponsors attract attendees, showcase products, and increase booth engagement throughout the event.

Learn more: [Sponsorship Dashboard: Booth Events | For Event Sponsors | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/article/sponsorship-dashboard-booth-events)

Booth Events can include product demos, presentations, meet‑and‑greets, prize drawings, or any other activity designed to drive traffic to the sponsor’s booth.

**Visibility in the Mobile App**

Booth Events appear in the mobile app under the **Connect** button/label inside the **Social** tab. This placement ensures attendees can easily discover, join, and engage with sponsor‑hosted activities.

Learn more: [Sponsor Booth Events Mobile App Experience | Mobile App | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/article/sponsor-booth-events-mobile-app-experience)

**Booth Events Tab in the Admin Panel**

To access and manage Booth Events from the admin side:

Go to: Sponsor → Sponsorships → Select a Sponsor → **Booth Events** tab

The **Booth Events** tab displays all Booth Events created by the sponsor through their Sponsorship Dashboard. Each event includes a summary of key details:

- **Event      Name** — The title of the booth event.
- **Description**      — A short explanation of what the event is about.
- **Start      Date** — The date when the booth event begins.
- **End      Date** — The date when the booth event ends.

**Deleting a Booth Event**

From the Booth Events tab, administrators can delete a Booth Event if necessary. This action removes the event from both the Sponsorship Dashboard and the mobile app.

 ![081c25ab2e76f9173c03450050c2ba44](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/ffc5be63-20a1-4304-b2e9-b0bd61588f48)

**Turning Sponsor Booth Events On or Off**

The run.events platform allows event organizers to globally enable or disable Booth Events.

Go to: Settings → Configuration Settings → **Allow booth events**

When this setting is turned **on**, sponsors can create Booth Events in their Sponsorship Dashboard, and attendees will see them in the mobile app. When turned **off**, the feature is disabled across the platform, and the mobile app will reflect the change.

**Content Organizer - Bulk Speaker Communication**

Content Organizer provides bulk speaker communication, allowing you to send acceptance or rejection notifications for presentation submissions. You can notify speakers in several different ways.

One of them is to go to:

1. Content and speakers -> content manager, select a session,

2. Go to the tab edit and scroll down and you will notice the checkboxes: is informed and is confirmed.

3. Check them and the speaker will be automatically notified about the change in the status of his session.

![5ef9e4cbf12e50ec79526da53dabac46](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/83510c37-2f02-4c2b-84fe-50299ecee9ab)

If you choose the '**Inform Speaker**' option in the bucket menu, this will automatically notify all uninformed speakers from that bucket (this option is available for buckets with status 'Accepted' and 'Declined'). 

![5ca68150c4943502c560fb133ab03443](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/529d9195-b8af-40c7-aae8-d3938cb32156)

**Contacting Speakers via email**

1.	Go to content and speakers -> content manager
2.	Click on the three dots on the bucket and select send email to speakers.

![f20325a88ba4e272605c2f36020d5937](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/ee438864-8dfe-4993-afc5-56fdfe26e275)

You can do the same from the Speaker Management section. Use the search to find the speakers you want, select them, and click "Send email" to write your message.

**Public Note Field – Purpose and Usage**

The **Content Team** can add a public note for each session decision (accepted or not accepted). Example: *“It was not accepted because the topic was misaligned with the event focus.”*

![A screenshot of a chat AI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/ac646b58-84b8-4ca6-bea0-55d93c8ba3b9)

When informing speakers of the decision (via the **“Inform Speakers”** action), you can choose to **Include Public Note**. If selected, the note will be added to the email sent to each speaker, providing a personalized explanation for the decision.

Public note must be set for each session separately.

**run.events Smart Hub Administrator panel**

Each run.events Smart Hub has its own dedicated **run.events Smart Hub Administration Panel**, accessible directly from within the run.events Smart Hub by users who hold the **Administrator** role. This panel is intentionally separated from the main run.events Organizer Portal, allowing run.events Smart Hub management to be delegated to someone who does not need access to the broader run.events backend (e.g., a community manager).

From the Smart Hub Administration Panel, administrators can manage all aspects of the community, including Content Members, Settings, Pages and menus, Layout and design, AI configuration and Permissions.

**Signing In**

Members access the run.event Smart Hub using their existing **run.events account credentials**. The sign‑in process is seamless and ensures that only authenticated users can participate.

**How Sign‑In Works**

- **Standard run.events login** - Members      sign in with the same credentials they use across the run.events platform.
- **Automatic community enrollment** -      Once signed in, the member is automatically added to the community—no      extra steps required.
- **Membership agreement (optional)** -      If the organizer has enabled a **membership agreement**, members will      be prompted to review and accept it before they can access community      content.

**Accessing run.events Smart Hub**

Sign in using your **run.events Organizer Dashboard credentials**.

After signing in, your personal profile information will be visible.

**Menu Management –** **Page Layout**

**Page layout & Blocks**

The Page Layout editor allows you to control which components appear in your run.events Smart Hub and where they are positioned. You can fully customize the **left sidebar, main content area,** and **right sidebar** using a simple drag and drop interface.

**![01aa803524ee28fd01a519ed13a48f47](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/e879c01c-08ad-4a16-ae58-21a2599865b9)**

**Available Default Layout Components**

The Page Layout editor allows you to customize which components appear in your community and how they are arranged. You can add, remove, or reposition any of the following default layout blocks:

**Profile / Sign** **‑** **In**

- Displays the user’s profile information or      a sign in prompt.
- Data is pulled from the user’s run.events      account, including their role and any event or organization specific permissions.

**Pages**

Displays pages that were created and configured under Content → Pages inside run.events Smart Hub.

**Presented By**

Shows organizer information automatically pulled from the organizer profile in the run.events portal.

**Tickets/Event Widget**

Displays the logged in member’s event ticket. If the member does not hold a ticket, a **registration link** is shown instead.

**Registration Link Configuration**

The registration link displayed in the Tickets widget is fully configurable. It can point to a **run.events registration form.**

This ensures seamless integration with your event’s registration workflow.

**Upcoming Events List**

Displays upcoming events relevant to the community.

**Powered by / Organizer Branding Block**

Shows organizer branding. This block can be removed by the organizer if desired.

The Presented By / Organizer block automatically pulls organizer information from the organizer profile in the run.events portal, ensuring consistent branding across your event, community, and all connected pages.

**Drag** **‑** **and** **‑** **Drop Layout Editing**

All components can be:

- Dragged between the left sidebar, main      content area, and right sidebar
- Reordered within each section
- Removed entirely

This gives you complete control over the structure and visual presentation of your community without writing any code.

 ![2cdb0db2adadbfef406d8dca6af4affe](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/63206881-6b0b-400c-94dc-8e44622dfae7)

**Page Layout Customization**

Before customizing your Page Layout, you must first create your Pages under **Content → Pages**. Pages serve as the building blocks of your community’s navigation and overall structure. You can choose from three-page types:

- **Custom      Page (AI Web Builder)** – Create fully customized layouts using AI      assisted page building.
- **Event      Integration Page** – Automatically pulls content from a linked      run.events event.
- **Composite      Page** – A flexible page type composed of multiple content blocks.

Learn more: [run.events Smart Hub - Content - Articles | run.events Smart Hub | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/article/run-events-smart-hub-content-articles)

**Custom Menu Blocks**

Once your Pages are set up under **Content → Pages**, the next step is to create your menus under **Menu Management → Menus**.

 ![d211c07b4693fa71144358211dd9fddd](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/462a7578-94d3-4be8-8e0f-72d141458776)

After your menus are configured, you can insert any of them into your Page Layout to control navigation. Simply position the menu wherever you prefer within the layout to create a seamless navigation experience for your community.

 ![e56b5e6dc70b6965e8d9788d4fabf3f6](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/6242c20d-e957-4410-b0aa-62c4f6aa6245)

The **Page Layout** editor allows you to fully customize the structure of your community interface — including what appears in the left sidebar, main content area, and right sidebar. No coding is required.

**An example of a customized Page Layout using a Custom Block:** This example shows how you can enhance your page by inserting a Custom Block into the layout. Custom Blocks allow you to add tailored content, giving you full control over how information is presented to your community.

**Published:** May 22, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-content-streaming

**Streaming**

run.events supports **native streaming** as well as integrations with multiple external AI and media services. Native streaming allows you to broadcast live sessions directly through the platform, enabling seamless hybrid event experiences without relying on third-party embeds.

To enable streaming, you must configure an external service in your Organizer profile.

**Native Streaming**

run.events native streaming is powered by your connected external service (e.g., Bitmovin). Once configured, you can stream live sessions directly from the platform and display them on session pages, event pages, or inside your community.

If streaming is not yet configured, you will see:

**“Streaming not configured”**

To activate streaming, you must add the appropriate external service integration.

 ![7ce4a8d9e48cd0725ed2cf046eaa4f7d](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/ca5b452b-cf8e-428f-af26-5e5443365b61)

- **BitMovin**      (native streaming provider)
- **Mistral**
- **Azure      OpenAI**
- **OpenAI**
- **Qwen**
- **Perplexity**
- **Anthropic**

*Note: Only Bitmovin is used for native video streaming. Other services support AI powered features across the platform.*

**Name -** A recognizable name for the integration (e.g., “Bitmovin Streaming”, “OpenAI Assistant”).

**Web -** Optional reference URL.

**Username -** If required by the selected service.

**Key -** Your API key for the chosen service. For streaming, this is typically your **Bitmovin API key**.

> Learn how to create and customize Composite Pages in run.events by combining multiple components like text, event data, videos, and AI widgets into rich layouts.

**Published:** May 22, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-pages-composite-page

**Composite Page**

Composite Pages allow you to build **mixed content pages** by combining multiple components on a single canvas. They are perfect for creating rich landing pages or homepages.

**What You Can Include**

- Text      blocks
- Event      Integration components (speakers, sponsors, agenda items)
- Video      embeds
- AI      assistant widget
- FAQ      component
- Registration      links
- Other      content blocks

**How It Works**

- Components      are added and rearranged using **drag and drop**.
- You      can mix event data, custom content, and media in any order.

**Use Case Examples**

- A      homepage combining:
    - Intro       text
    - Speaker       carousel
    - Sponsor       grid
    - Registration       call to action
- An      “Info” page that includes:
    - AI       assistant widget
    - FAQ       component
    - Embedded       video

Composite Pages are especially useful when using the community as your **event website**, replacing the default social feed as the first page visitors see.

**Creating a Composite Page**

Composite Pages allow you to build rich, mixed content layouts by combining elements from Event Integration Pages, Custom Pages, Articles, Videos, and more. They are ideal for creating homepages, landing pages, or multi-section informational pages.

To create a new Composite Page:

**Click “New Composite Page”**

Navigate to **Pages** in your community admin area and select **New Composite Page**. This opens the page creation form.

**Fill in the Page Details**

You will be asked to complete the following fields:

**Add Page Elements**

Composite Pages are built by adding components to the **Page Elements** area.

Initially, the page shows:

- **Page Elements**
- **Element Tray**

Below the canvas, you’ll find the **Element Tray**, which contains all available components:

- **Event      Pages** (Agenda, Speakers, Sponsors, etc.)
- **Custom      Pages**
- **Articles**
- **Videos**

You can drag and drop any element into the Page Elements area to build your layout.

 ![ff276ffa5a72f392dd426663bb817a50](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/0f6fe805-8ee6-4406-af1d-ec169eb3b41f)

 ![f832aad14449ae3ed4e036d5c8582163](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/f21706d2-dd8b-4a95-94c8-b728db2c6e78)

**Arrange and Configure Components**

Once elements are added:

- Drag      to reorder them
- Configure      each component’s settings (if applicable)
- Combine      multiple content types to create a rich, multisection page

Composite Pages give you full flexibility to design a dynamic, visually engaging layout.

### run.events Smart Hub - Pages - Event Integration Page

> Learn how to create and configure Event Integration Pages in run.events Smart Hub: pages that display live event data such as the agenda, speakers, sponsors and FAQs, and pages for galleries, forms, booth reservations and community feeds.

**Published:** May 22, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-pages-event-integration-page

**Event Integration Page**

Event Integration Pages automatically pull **live event data** from your linked run.events event and display it in a readymade, styled layout. No manual updates are needed — these pages always reflect the current state of your event. A few page types show community content instead: photos and videos from your media library, or the latest items of one of your community feeds.

**Available Page Types**

- **Agenda** - Displays the full event programme. Supports linear or tabular layouts, search, and filtering by track or level. Attendees can bookmark sessions, which syncs with the mobile app.
- **Sessions** - Shows the event's sessions as cards, in a grid or a horizontal carousel, with optional search.
- **Speakers** - Shows all speaker profiles. Clicking a speaker opens a detailed page with biography and session list.
- **Sponsors** - Displays sponsor listings. Clicking a sponsor opens their dedicated page with contact details, products, services, and resources. Supports **scaling factors** per sponsor tier (e.g., Platinum 100%, Gold 75%, Silver 50%).
- **Registration** - Embeds the event registration form directly into the community.
- **Assistant** - An AI assistant that answers visitors' questions about your event or community, such as sessions, speakers or the venue. The community must have the AI Assistant feature enabled.
- **FAQ** - Displays event FAQs in a structured layout.
- **Connections** - Gives members one place for their connections: requests they received, requests they sent, the people they are connected with, and people they may want to meet.
- **Matchmaking** - Shows signed-in attendees AI recommendations for people to meet, sponsors and products, each with a short reason for the match.
- **Galleries** - Shows photos and videos from your media library, either as folders visitors can browse or as a single scrollable row. Any item opens in a larger view.
- **Custom Smart Form** - Places one of the event's published Smart Forms on the page. It can also work as a contact form that sends every submission to an email address you choose.
- **Expo Booth Reservation** - Lets companies browse your expo booths by partnership level, see size, price and what each booth includes, and reserve one. Booths can be shown as a grid or on your floorplan.
- **Feed** - Shows the latest items of one of your community feeds, as a vertical list or a carousel, with an optional link to the full feed.

**Smart Interconnections**

All Event Integration Pages are linked automatically:

- Sessions link to speakers
- Speakers link back to their sessions
- Sponsored sessions link to sponsor pages
- Sponsor logos link to sponsor profiles

Visitors can move between these pages without any setup on your side.

**Creation**

These pages are **not created automatically**. They can be added by the organiser through the run.events platform.

Once created, they require no further setup — the data populates itself.

**Event Integration Page — Field Definitions**

When creating an **Event Integration Page**, you will configure several fields that determine how the page appears and how it connects to your event data.

**Title -** The name of the page displayed in the community navigation and at the top of the page. Example: *Agenda*, *Speakers*, *Sponsors*, *FAQ*.

**Slug -** The URL friendly identifier used to generate the page’s link.

- Automatically generated from the title
- Can be edited manually
- Must contain only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens

**Folder -** An optional organisational category used to group related pages. Useful when you have multiple event integration pages and want to keep them structured.

**Page Type -** For this page, the type is **Event Integration Page**. This determines that the page will automatically pull live data from the linked event.

**Page Event -** Select the event from which the page should pull data. This is required for pages that display **live, synced event information** such as agenda, speakers, sponsors, or FAQs. Connections, Galleries and Feed pages do not need an event.

**Description -** A short summary of what the page contains. This may appear in page listings or internal management views.

**Image -** An optional featured image used for visual representation in page lists or previews. Useful for making event pages more visually appealing.

**Header -** A short line displayed above the page title. Often used for context or categorisation (e.g., “Event Information”, “Programme Overview”).

**Intro Text**

A formatted introductory block that appears at the top of the page. Use this to welcome visitors or explain what they will find on the page before the event data is displayed.

### run.events Smart Hub - Pages - Types

> Learn about the three types of pages in run.events Smart Hub: Event Integration, Custom, and Composite, and how to manage them efficiently.

**Published:** May 22, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-pages-types

**Pages**

Pages are the building blocks of your community’s structure and navigation. They allow you to present event information, custom content, and combined layouts in a flexible and organised way. There are **three types of pages**, each serving a different purpose.

**Event Integration Page**

Event Integration Pages are directly connected to your event on the run.events platform. They automatically display event‑bound data such as:

- Registration
- Agenda
- Speakers
- Sponsors
- FAQ
- Any      other event‑linked modules

These pages stay in sync with your event configuration, ensuring that updates made in run.events are reflected in your community without manual editing.

**Custom Page**

Custom Pages allow you to create fully personalised content using the **run.events AI Website Builder**.

You can design any type of page, including:

- Welcome      pages
- Informational      content
- Partner      or sponsor highlights
- Custom      layouts and messaging

Custom Pages are available **only for event bound communities**, ensuring they remain part of the event’s content ecosystem.

**Composite Page**

Composite Pages let you combine multiple content sources into a single, unified page. They can include elements from:

- Event      Integration Pages
- Custom      Pages
- Articles
- Videos
- Other      supported content types

This makes Composite Pages ideal for creating rich, curated experiences such as resource hubs, learning centres, or multi-section landing pages.

**Creating Pages**

Go to: **Pages -&gt; + Add Page**

 ![aea4deaf789c179c954c5d92e4ed4248](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/b9b99525-0da0-401c-a04b-1120a31a8ff0)

 ![3b33e107486b2e4955c6b342f1e06f39](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/15265c20-9d67-4392-9a9f-df74d1f1ce7e)

**Searching Through the Pages List**

The Pages list includes a built-in search and filtering system that helps you quickly locate any page in your community. You can search or filter by several key attributes:

**Category**

Filter pages by their category, such as:

- Event      Integration Pages
- Custom      Pages
- Composite      Pages

This helps you narrow down the list based on the type of page you’re looking for.

**Title**

Search by the page’s title. Useful when you know the name of the page or part of it.

**Type**

Filter by the page type:

- Event      Integration
- Custom
- Composite

This is especially helpful when managing large communities with many pages.

**Event**

For event bound pages, you can filter by the event they belong to. This ensures you only see pages linked to a specific event.

**Slug**

Search by the page’s URL slug. Ideal when you need to locate a page based on its URL or when troubleshooting navigation.

**Folder**

Filter pages by the folder they are organised into. This helps keep large content structures tidy and easy to navigate.

These fields are **fixed** and cannot be customised by organisers. They are designed to help members present themselves professionally and build meaningful connections within the community.

**Content & Navigation**

Members can explore a rich ecosystem of event content and community activity.

**What Members Can Access**

- Articles,      videos, and posts from the community feed
- Event data      such as agenda, speakers, and sponsors — all displayed as interconnected      pages
- Interactive      features such as likes, comments, and posts (depending on organiser      permissions)

This creates a dynamic environment where event information and community engagement live side by side.

 ![a57e18bbf603935bec9da5b7427e47f8](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/acf473c8-8ea3-4242-8f3c-907a34b9408c)

- **Comments:** Members can comment on articles, videos,      and posts.

 ![30ce63841cfe775770d306a7c2b53eec](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/a28ee3af-336d-4ead-a683-72bc26b02fb3)

- **Pinned      Posts:** Administrators can      pin important posts to the top of the feed.

 ![dce6116b30821c04e429cb6a7ca6c908](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/fff6402e-1067-4a6a-a0cc-4da1717b4c57)

- **Likes:** Members can like posts and content.
- **Content      Filtering:** The feed can      be filtered by content type (posts, articles, videos).

 ![8cb2b3bd6d9c7ee2b4520de49653ee57](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/bf0a2b9f-bbc4-4a64-8979-affe484c4d47)

- **Labels/Tags:** Content can be browsed by label for      easier discovery.

 ![627c1e99c2b8e30f880127db1e9e3b28](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/a421b3dc-9940-40a3-bec6-1f3ea4537416)

These features help foster interaction, discussion, and ongoing engagement.

**AI Support Bot**

The built-in AI assistant is always available to help members find what they need. It can answer questions about:

- The event
- The agenda
- Speakers
- Community      content
- Navigation      and where to find things

 ![62c3ce849fba792326f0b49a80a81231](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/1fbbbf79-a403-4e58-b94d-e3630c71c847)

This ensures members can quickly access information without needing to search manually or contact support.

**Personal Agenda**

Members can build a personalised event schedule that stays in sync across the community and the mobile app.

**How It Works**

- Members      favourite sessions by clicking the **heart icon** on any session or      agenda view.

 ![0dee988982432f9bebd658b4209b4981](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/619efd9f-4a3f-4354-93ef-ccd698013881)

- A **“My      Agenda”** toggle filters the agenda to show only their saved sessions.

 ![7629f298ae5196fda50716c048105a88](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/c40b12bf-0f83-4b6d-825b-26c00ede58dd)

**What the Personal Schedule Includes**

- Sessions the      member has favourited
- Meetings      booked with sponsors
- Meetings      accepted from other attendees

**Access Based Visibility**

Sessions that fall outside the attendee’s ticket access appear **greyed out**. Hovering over them displays a message such as: **“You cannot add this session — please upgrade your ticket.”** This behaviour is configurable and can serve as a natural, non‑intrusive upsell opportunity.

 ![38d71f3767e8afe0926630516f011fff](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/49a465a1-83db-413c-be0a-540308833e77)

 ![707ee1c3f36765b0205bb62dd814359e](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/a447566a-c84d-4f8f-8ecb-f8e4c9badd22)

**Cross platform consistency**

The personal agenda behaves identically on:

- The community      website
- The      run.events mobile app

Members can switch between devices without losing context.

### run.events Smart Hub - Menu Management - Members

> Learn how to manage community members in run.events Smart Hub, including viewing details, assigning roles, and controlling email subscriptions.

**Published:** May 22, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-menu-management-members

**Menu Management –** **Members**

**Member Management**

The Member Management section allows organisers and community administrators to oversee everyone who participates in the community. It provides a complete overview of members, their roles, their activity status, and their communication preferences.

**What You Can Do**

- **View and manage all      community members** - See who has joined the community, when they      joined, their roles, and their current status.
- **Subscribe or      unsubscribe members from community emails** - Control whether a member      receives community related announcements and updates.
- **Assign roles to members**      - Each member can be assigned one of three administrative roles, each with      different permissions.

**Members Overview**

Go to: **Members tab**

**Quick view information**

The member list displays all the key details:

- Profile photo
- Name
- Status
- Assigned roles
- Join date

You can also use the search bar to find specific members quickly.

**![9361522a360c25bc840156bd3cf2535c](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/5eba3dc9-67fb-4620-b26e-2380f580292b)**

**Member Details**

Clicking on a member opens a flyout window with detailed information and management options.

- **Moderator** - Can      moderate social elements such as comments, posts, and tags.
- **Administrator** - Has      full control over the community administration panel.

These roles allow you to delegate responsibilities without giving access to the main organiser portal.

### run.events Smart Hub - Menu Management - Permissions

> Learn how to configure permissions in run.events Smart Hub to control access, publishing rights and community engagement levels for members and visitors.

**Published:** May 22, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-menu-management-permissions

**Menu Management –** **Permissions**

**Permissions**

The **Permissions** section controls who can interact with the content, who can publish different types of media, and how accessible your community is to members and visitors. These settings help you shape the level of openness, safety, and engagement within your community.

**Permissions Overview**

Permissions determine who can view and engage with your run.events Smart Hub community.

**Require sign‑in to view**

When enabled, the entire community is hidden from visitors who aren’t logged in. Ideal for private or members‑only environments such as associations or closed groups.

**Anonymous browsing**

Allows visitors who aren’t signed in to read community content. Useful when you want your discussions or posts to be publicly visible.

**Require sign‑in to watch video**

Even if anonymous browsing is allowed, users must sign in to watch videos or join webinars. This is helpful when you want your content to be publicly discoverable but restrict access to media or live sessions.

**Interaction Permissions**

These settings determine how users can participate socially inside your community.

**Interaction Enabled**

Enables or disables all social features.

- **When      enabled:** Users can like      posts, comment, and engage with content.
- **When      disabled:** The community      becomes read-only — no posts, comments, or reactions are allowed.

**Who Can Write Posts**

Controls who are allowed to create new posts.

- **Members      Can Write Posts**
    - All       registered community members can publish posts.
    - Contributors       automatically inherit this permission.
- **Contributors      Can Write Posts**
    - Only users       with the Contributor role can publish posts.
    - Members       cannot create posts unless explicitly enabled.

**Use case:** If you want a more curated feed, allow only Contributors to post. If you want an open, social community, allow Members to post.

**Who Can Post Images**

Controls who can upload images in posts.

- **Members      Can Post Images**
    - All members       can attach images to their posts.
- **Contributors      Can Post Images**
    - Only       Contributors can upload images.
    - Automatically       enabled if Members are allowed to post images.

**Use case:** Restricting image uploads to Contributors helps prevent spam or inappropriate content.

**Who Can Post Articles**

Controls who can publish long‑form content.

- **Members      Can Post Articles**
    - Members can       create article style content.
- **Contributors      Can Post Articles**      (default)
    - Only       Contributors can publish articles.

**Use case:** Articles often represent official or curated content, so many communities keep this limited to Contributors.

**Who Can Post Videos**

Controls who can upload video content.

- **Members      Can Post Videos**
    - Members can       upload videos directly.
- **Contributors      Can Post Videos** (default)
    - Only       Contributors can upload videos.

**Use case:** Video uploads can be resource heavy and require moderation, so many communities restrict this to Contributors.

 ![fd1347254421070949fac932b9699935](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/253e7384-6289-4d1a-a17b-1e24ff7668b2)

**Access Permissions**

These settings determine who can view your community and how content is accessed.

**Anonymous Can Browse**

- **Enabled:** Anyone can browse community content      without signing in.
- **Disabled:** Only logged in users can view content.

**Use case:** Enable this for public communities; disable it for private or member only spaces.

**Require Sign In to Watch Videos**

- **Enabled:** Users must be logged in to watch videos.
- **Disabled:** Videos are publicly viewable.

**Use case:** Useful when video content is exclusive or restricted to registered members.

**Pass Query Parameters**

Allows query parameters to be passed through community URLs.

**What this means:** If a user arrives with a URL like ?ref=campaign123, the parameter is preserved. This is useful for:

- Marketing tracking
- Deep linking
- Integrations with external systems

 ![d9ae45f0b63d1e271ae4bfe1943a95a5](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/69cc4d27-9101-40dd-a877-e0cd132c6b67)

**Run.events Smart Hub Management Access**

**Can someone manage run.events Smart Hub without access to the run.events organiser dashboard?**

**Yes.** The community administration panel is separate from the main run.events organiser dashboard.

Anyone assigned the **Administrator** role *within the community* can manage:

- Permissions
- Content
- Moderation
- Settings      —without needing organiser portal access.

This allows you to delegate community management safely.

**Membership Permissions *(Coming Soon)***

These features will be available in future updates.

**Invite Only Community *(Coming Soon)***

Only invited users can join the community. Useful for private groups, premium memberships, or internal communities.

**Admin Approval Required *(Coming Soon)***

New users can request access but must be approved by an administrator before joining. Ideal for controlled or moderated communities.

### run.events Smart Hub Setting up in the run.events platform

> Step-by-step guide to creating and configuring a Smart Hub community in the run.events platform, including branding, permissions, and member management.

**Published:** May 21, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-setting-up-in-the-run-events-platform

**Setting Up a run.events Smart Hub**

run.events Smart Hub is created from the run.events organizer portal.

Go to: **Organizer profile -&gt; Communities**

 ![c9ffc3c2e58348a30b26e0a09258d4fc](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/53a97726-223e-494e-9e2c-43a6996b8174)

Click **+ Add a community**

 ![0edc79fb265551583d3f9bfa50bfa898](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/d4bda7fc-b245-4589-8b06-35f963a51d4c)

**Basic Configuration**

Fill in the basic details that will be publicly visible:

- **Name**
- **Status** (Active, Inactive, Archived, Deleted) -      Set the status to Active when ready
- **Description**
- **Tagline**
- **Rules** - Define the rules that members must      follow. These rules also serve as the grounding prompt for AI moderation —      content that violates them will be automatically declined.

 ![a7a12491b9945a866dc34d3e7b0964ee](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/0cd860a1-5511-4aae-a5df-7893b04d6fbd)

Configure branding

- Logo
- Header picture
- Primary and secondary colors

 ![d5c621c3c6a8ed39d3bcd1c5d5980af1](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/23678eff-82c0-4e6c-a75f-55a6be17c1e3)

**Access & Privacy Permissions**

Define permissions:

- Only signed-in members can access this      community page - When enabled, the entire community is hidden from      anonymous (not logged-in) visitors. Ideal for private, members-only spaces      like associations.
- Administrators and Moderators must approve      join requests
- Only administrators and moderators can      invite new members

 ![a8b029d15dba93ea60546d253058a590](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/a9257286-ef92-4bba-9e55-bfa128ba1245)

**Configure JavaScript in Header**

Inject custom JavaScript (e.g. Google Tag Manager, analytics, tracking pixels) directly into the community. The code is injected into every run.events Smart Hub page automatically.

![b3f2674f79f2eb40f9455a6d9f2f1a70](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/96b4be3a-005c-4593-859d-3857620ea2eb)

**Agreement Documents**

Once community created, add Terms of Service, data privacy agreements, or any custom acceptance text shown to new members on joining.

 ![1edf56c78e9fd4a45e1e973441c18546](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/b9a0e733-768d-4557-9690-d2c7113aa90c)

**Important:**

Day-to-day community management happens inside the run.events Smart Hub via the Administration Panel — not in the run.events organizer portal. This allows a dedicated run.events Smart Hub manager (who may not have access to the main run.events backend) to administer the run.events Smart Hub independently.

**Custom Domain**

A run.events Smart Hub can be served on a custom domain (e.g. community.yourevent.com or app.yourevent.com).

●The organizer provides a DNS change, by contacting run.events Support team: [New Ticket | run.events](https://community.run.events/ticket/add)

●This is a significant improvement over the default event dashboard URL which cannot be customized.

**Linked Event**

A *community* in your platform can optionally be connected (“linked”) to a specific **event**. When you link them, the community gains **event‑aware features** — meaning the community can automatically adapt to the event it belongs to.

**What “event**‑**aware features” usually include is:**

- Showing      event‑specific content inside the community
- Automatically      syncing attendees, sessions, or updates
- Enabling      event‑related discussions, announcements, or resources
- Making      the community feel like an extension of the event rather than a standalone      space

If you run a recurring event (e.g., “Tech Summit 2025”, then “Tech Summit 2026”), you don’t need to create a new community every year. You can **reuse the same community** and simply update the linked event to the new edition.

Linking a community to an event:

- is      optional
- unlocks      event‑specific functionality
- can      be changed each year for recurring events

**Article Labels configuration**

Go to: Article Labels

 ![bfa13338fb95597c2fd9b20721b8bbd6](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/e62a890c-e514-4ed8-a6a8-4f58fefc8967)

Configure:

- **Label Name** - The      title or identifier you assign to the label.
- **Badge** - An optional      marker that highlights or categorizes items using this label.
- **Is Publicly Visible**      - Determines whether the label is visible to all users or only to      administrators and moderators.

 ![461e46214846f6f8b3f337808a8ce5f2](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/59505afe-481f-40ae-be1c-37c0b0ebaaa6)

By selecting an individual member, you can also assign or update their role: **Contributor**, **Moderator**, or **Administrator**.

 ![d7a369f25e078d065bf3c6fcc4481381](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/8b7758e7-e407-47c5-acc7-117d713b1c2e)

### run.events Smart Hub - Menu Management - Assistant Analytics

> Learn how to manage AI Assistant analytics, moderation rules, FAQ sets, and indexing in run.events Smart Hub to refine content and improve user interactions.

**run.events Smart Hub – Menu Management –** **Assistant Analytics**

**AI Assistant, Moderation, Indexing & Analytics Overview**

If you choose to enable the AI Assistant in your run.events Smart Hub, several tools become available to help you understand user behaviour, maintain content quality, and ensure your AI Assistant always has access to the most relevant information. See how Assistant Analytics, AI Moderation, FAQ management, SEO discoverability, and search indexing work together.

**Assistant Analytics**

The Assistant Analytics section in the admin panel gives you full visibility into how members and visitors interact with your AI Assistant. It allows you to:

- View all      questions asked by users along with the assistant’s responses
- Identify gaps      in your FAQs, articles, or support content
- Trigger a      manual reindexing after adding new articles, videos, or FAQs
- Monitor      indexing behaviour
- Understand      user needs and refine your content strategy accordingly

**Setting your AI Assistant**

Go to **Community Administration**.

- **Turn on      the AI Assistant**
    - Open your **Admin       panel**.
    - Navigate to       the **AI Assistant** or **Assistant Settings** section.
    - Enable the       assistant for your community.

**Set up AI Moderation**

- **Write      detailed run.events Smart Hub Rules**
    - Clearly       define what is allowed and not allowed (e.g. hate speech, discrimination,       spam, harassment, self-promotion rules).
    - Be       specific—these guidelines are used as the **grounding prompt** for       moderation.
    - Set the **assistant       description** (what it helps with).
    - Configure **tone**       (formal, friendly, concise, etc.).
    - Choose which       **languages** it should support (if applicable).
- **How      moderation works**
    - All member       submitted content (posts, comments) is checked before publishing.
    - If content       violates guidelines, the AI:

- Declines to publish it.
- Explains to the user why it was blocked        (based on your rules).

**Create and Manage FAQ Sets**

You can create and manage multiple FAQ sets for different audiences (attendees, speakers, sponsors, etc.) in the run.events organiser dashboard.

- Create      separate FAQ sets for different user groups
- Use AI      generated FAQs as a starting point and edit them
- Select which      FAQ sets should be indexed for the AI Assistant

This ensures the assistant can deliver accurate, role specific answers.

**Step-by-step**

- **Create FAQ      Sets**
    - Go to       run.events **Organizer dashboard -&gt; Event level -&gt; Communications       → FAQs**.
    - Create       individual sets such as *Attendee FAQs*, *Speaker FAQs*, or *Sponsor       FAQs*.
- **Use AI      Generated FAQs (Optional)**
    - Generate       FAQs with AI.
    - Edit the       questions and answers to match your event’s needs.
- **Select the      FAQ sets to include in the AI knowledge base.**

 ![bf1e0cd54d6fd6e69371020e5f9d3e13](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/ffc60693-9241-4207-b04e-a6e5c676d9bb)

**Configure Indexing (AI bot knowledge)**

Go to: **Assistant Analytics** tab -&gt; **Indexing Configuration**

The AI Assistant relies on an indexed knowledge base. Administrators can configure which data sources are included, select data sources to index:

**Event FAQs (**created under Communications → FAQs) – choose **which FAQ sets to include.**

- **Run.events      Smart Hub articles** –      automatically indexed after publication
- **Run.events      Smart Hub Video transcripts**      – the assistant searches full transcript text

 ![fb4110b70ecac6f0155b582bbb15a366](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/39cd6fb0-50c0-4995-93d3-30dc45014389)

If your community is not yet linked to an event, you may see the message:

*“No event is associated with this community. Go to Community Administration to set up event association before configuring search indexing.”*

 ![6a4c46c66750526144e65681b4b22011](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/7eee3da2-e8e3-408a-bcc7-2a66627e2bea)

**Indexing behaviour**

**Scheduled indexing:** runs automatically (daily).

**Manual reindex:**

- Go to **Assistant Analytics**.
- Click “**Start Re-indexing**”
- Wait ~30 seconds for the new content to be included.

 ![fbd1e80c6c69a1e983fa526339280c3c](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/950c41e9-56ed-407d-8594-b03ea96ed842)

**What does reindexing mean?**

Reindexing updates the assistant’s internal knowledge base by scanning all selected content sources (FAQs, articles, transcripts). This ensures the assistant always uses the most up to date information when answering questions.

**AI Moderation**

All member generated content—such as posts and comments—is automatically moderated by AI before it becomes publicly visible. Moderation is based entirely on the **run.events Smart Hub Rules** you define.

If content violates your guidelines (e.g., hate speech, discrimination, spam), the AI will decline to publish it and provide a polite explanation to the user.

**Tip:** Write detailed and specific community guidelines. The moderation model uses your guidelines directly as its grounding prompt, so clearer rules result in more accurate moderation.

Go to: **Assistant Analytics**

**Review questions and answers**

- See all      questions asked by members and visitors.
- View the      assistant’s responses.
- Use this to      spot:
    - Missing       information
    - Confusing       topics
    - Repeated       questions
- **Act on      insights**
    - Add or       update FAQs, articles, or videos where you see gaps.
    - After adding       content, **trigger a manual reindex** if you want it available       immediately.

You can also search all user questions by **start date, end date, and model provider** to analyse trends or identify recurring topics.

 ![85e64e7643d2ff52a85c23e62dbeee85](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/cbc36eca-d23a-4982-84fd-6a82a64424f6)

**SEO & Agentic Discoverability**

Your community is **SEO ready out of the box**. All pages include the necessary metadata and structure for standard search engine indexing.

**Agentic SEO (llms.txt)**

The community also exposes its content via **llms.txt**, the emerging standard used by AI agents (ChatGPT, Claude, Mistral, Grok, etc.) to discover and index site content. This means your community is automatically discoverable by AI powered search tools without any additional configuration.

### Brand new Self-service dashboard for sponsors and exhibitors

> Every sponsor and exhibitor on a run.events event has its own dashboard in the event portal. It is the place where a sponsor's team manages its presence at the event without going through the organiser: company information, team members and their tickets, lead retrieval, booth events, meetings with attendees, downloadable material, and the booth itself. This article describes what is there and how the parts fit together.

**Published:** May 2, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/brand-new-sponsors-and-exhibitors-self-service-dashboard

The organiser invites a person from the sponsor's side by email. The invitation link opens the event portal, and after accepting it the person becomes a manager of that sponsorship with a set of permissions. One manager is the representative. The representative can edit the company information, manage the team and assign tickets. Everyone else sees the parts of the dashboard their permissions allow.

There are four further permissions, and each can be switched on or off per person from the dashboard home page:

- lead retrieval
- task management
- booth configuration and management
- meeting management

A separate switch decides whether a team member receives official communication from the organiser.

## Home

The home page shows the state of the sponsorship at a glance. On the left are the tasks the organiser has assigned to the sponsor, with priority, status and due date. Overdue tasks are marked. Opening a task shows its description and start and due dates, lets the sponsor change the status and fill in any fields the organiser has asked for, and has a conversation tab for exchanging messages with the organiser about that task.

Below the tasks is the team, split in two lists: people who hold a valid event ticket, and people working in the backstage without one. Each member shows their permissions and, where applicable, the ticket types assigned to them. The representative adds members here, removes them, toggles permissions, and reaches the ticket page to assign the sponsorship's ticket allocation to individual people.

On the right are the items that make up the sponsorship as contracted, and the sponsor's booths with their configuration status.

## Company information

Under "Our info" the representative maintains what the event website and app show about the company: marketing name, logo, website, public description, and any custom fields the organiser has defined, such as industries, countries or languages. Two switches decide whether the sponsor has its own page on the event site and whether team members are listed there. A billing address is entered once and used for invoicing.

![Dashboard displaying lead engagement metrics , including pie chart breakdowns of lead ratings, bar graphs of lead roles, and individual contact profiles with ratings.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/6e69e8de-95aa-4488-8cf0-999a7b79b391)

## Lead retrieval

Lead retrieval has two pages. Lead retrieval configuration is where the sponsor prepares lead labels before the event. Labels are short tags such as a product name, "partner" or "hot lead". During the event, a team member scans an attendee badge in the run.events mobile app, gives the lead a rating from one to five stars, taps the labels that apply, and optionally writes a note. If the event uses gamification, the member can also record which giveaways were handed over. The configuration page also lists who on the team may scan, since scanning is tied to the lead retrieval permission.

The leads page shows every captured lead with photo, rating, labels, company, job title and who scanned it. Three charts break the leads down by rating, by label and by team member. Opening a lead shows the attendee's details and lets the sponsor adjust rating and labels after the fact. One button exports all leads to Excel for import into a CRM.

## Booth events

Sponsors can run small events of their own: a demo, a talk at the booth, a prize drawing. A booth event has a name, description, image, start and end time, location, and a maximum number of attendees. It can be public, so that every attendee sees it in the app and can register, or private. Each booth event gets its own chat group, created automatically, where the sponsor and registered attendees can talk before, during and after.

A booth event can include a prize drawing. The sponsor enters the prize name, description, image, quantity and estimated value, and chooses who is eligible: everyone at the event, people whose badge was scanned at the booth, people present at the booth event, or members of the event's chat group. Eligibility can be narrowed further to specific attendee roles. Attendees enter the drawing by scanning a QR code that the dashboard displays. The draw itself runs from the dashboard, one winner at a time until the prize quantity is reached, and the winners are recorded on the event.

The organiser decides whether booth events are available on a given event.

## Meetings

The meetings page works in both directions. The sponsor creates meeting slots with a start and end time, a meeting place such as the booth or a meeting room, and an optional note. A slot is Free, Reserved or Booked. Attendees see free slots in the app and can request one, which sets the slot to Reserved until the sponsor accepts. The sponsor can also organise a meeting directly by searching attendees by name or company and sending an invitation.

Accepting a request sets the slot to Booked and opens a direct chat between the sponsor and the attendee. Declining returns the slot to Free. When a meeting is accepted, the attendee is added to the sponsor's leads automatically, so a conversation arranged in advance ends up in the same list as badge scans. Meetings can be assigned to a specific team member. The meetings diary lists all scheduled, pending and past meetings with their status.

![This interface displays a booth setup for Aeroallergen Diagnostics at an allergy congress, showing available meeting slots and booth configurations. The schedule includes free and reserved time slots for attendees to book consultations at designated stations such as exhibition hall seats, demo counters, and private consult tables.](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/aeb13d45-79a3-4fb1-8932-d5fea291d6e9)

## Assets

The assets page holds four kinds of material that attendees see on the sponsor's page:

- **Contacts**: phone numbers, email addresses and social profiles.
- **Assets**: documents to download, or links, each with a title, description and language.
- **Products and services**: name, description and logo for each offering.
- **Giveaways**: items handed out at the booth, with price, quantity, a limit per attendee, and an active switch. These are the giveaways that appear during lead scanning.

## Matchmaking

If the event runs matchmaking, the dashboard shows a ranked list of attendees who match the sponsor's products and services, each with name, job title, company, tagline and a short introduction. The list is read-only and is meant as a starting point for meeting invitations.

## Booth configuration

When the organiser sells booth space through run.events, the sponsor's booths appear on the home page with a status of Constructing, Draft or Published. Opening a booth shows the chosen booth template with its price, and sections for furniture, utilities and additional services, each with a running total in the event currency. The sponsor adds items from what the organiser offers, uploads design data for the booth, and, where the organiser has enabled it, opens the booth in the 3D floor planner. Publishing the booth marks the configuration as final and hands it to the organiser.

## FAQ

If the organiser has written sponsor FAQs, they appear as a page in the dashboard, grouped by topic, with any related downloads such as exhibitor manuals or shipping instructions.

## Where to start

1. Accept the invitation email from the organiser. This opens the dashboard in the event portal.
2. As representative, complete the company information and add your team with the permissions each person needs.
3. Assign tickets to the people who will be on site.
4. Create lead labels before the event, and check that the people who will scan have lead retrieval switched on.
5. Install the run.events mobile app on each scanner's phone. Lead scanning is part of the standard app, and there is nothing separate to install.

Questions and feedback are welcome in the community forum.

**Sponsorship dashboard: Booth Events - Onsite Experience**

Sponsors can organize multiple **Booth Events** as part of their onsite engagement. Once everything is configured, the sponsor hosting the booth event should navigate to:

**Booth Events → Select the event → Open the QR Code**

The QR code is used for:

- Attendee      check‑in at the booth
- Automatic      entry into the prize drawing (if enabled)

 ![f9f4085305d85f784871f2db21896820](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/e62767c3-267c-4ce2-901f-7e08e915ad7c)

When opened, a separate window displays the QR code required for check‑in, along with the prize information (if a prize drawing is enabled).

 ![fb04018c3886ef2289796db0eb539da8](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/02e11b27-ba30-4760-a5e5-1381521a92a4)

**Tracking Booth Event Registrations**

From the **Sponsorship Dashboard**, sponsors can easily track how many attendees have registered for the booth event. If the registration approaches or exceeds the planned limit, sponsors can adjust their settings or increase the capacity as needed.

 ![3e302482062df1af3b55378261411c9e](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/bc71f6d4-e5b4-49d9-8f4b-3d3ada315d57)

**Prize Drawing**

If a prize drawing is enabled, the sponsor can click the **Draw** button to randomly select a winner. The system automatically selects from attendees who meet the eligibility criteria defined in the prize drawing settings.

 ![9f126f89ea640a13ff98cbc3f297f950](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/c4f19f7b-a635-4bec-a65c-47a1cca305ea)

Once the winner is selected, you can choose the next action. You may either **repeat the prize drawing** or **save winner** to finalize the result.

 ![dfa1ddfc3f5e26a5946f6fe9427fd2a9](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/78814ea5-7b16-4aae-8db8-93f8b6e62439)

If you choose to **save winner**, the selected attendee will be recorded and displayed as part of that specific booth event.

![f575a59f7a5b2ea1cac2f50c4bbf7f34](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/1cb295b7-4281-404b-ad48-75a1134d75f2)

### run.events Smart Hub an interactive online event dashboard

> Discover run.events Smart Hub, an interactive online event dashboard that serves as a branded, persistent digital home for attendees to browse sessions, register, and engage before, during, and after events.

**Published:** April 29, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/run-events-smart-hub-an-interactive-online-event-dashboard

**What is a** **run.events Smart Hub?**

run.events Smart Hub is your event's always-on digital home — a branded, interactive space where attendees can browse sessions, register, access their tickets, connect with each other, and engage with your content - before, during, and after the event.

Unlike a standard event page, a Smart Hub is persistent, deeply integrated with the run.events platform, and requires no widgets, iframes, or third-party tools. Think of it as a mobile app for the web.

A run.events Smart Hub can operate in two modes:

- **Standalone**      — no linked event
    - Best for year-round community       hubs, associations, or membership groups.

- **Event-bound**      — linked to a specific run.events event
    - Unlocks       agenda, speaker pages, registration, and ticket display. Recommended as       the primary website for your event.

**Use Cases**

**1. Smart Hub**

An always-on digital space for year-round audience engagement — not just during events. It suits professional communities, recurring conference audiences, or any group that benefits from continuous connection.

●Members log in with their run.events account and are automatically recognized as community members.

●Organizers can post articles, videos, and updates that members can browse and interact with.

●Members can comment on posts and content.

●An optional onboarding flow with community guidelines and acceptance agreement can be shown when a new member joins.

●Organizers can configure which content types are public and which require sign-in.

**2. Association & Membership Management**

run.events Smart Hub provides the foundation for managing associations and membership-based organizations. Organizers can control who belongs to their community, what roles those members hold, and what they can access or contribute.

●Members are tracked within the community, giving organizers a clear view of their audience.

●**Roles:** Members can be assigned roles: Contributor, Moderator, or Administrator.

●Community membership can be restricted to logged-in users only, making it a private member-only space.

**3. Event Front-End (run.events Smart Hub Bound to an Event)**

When a run.events Smart Hub is linked to a specific event, it gains a full set of event-aware capabilities and can serve as the primary public-facing website for that event. This replaces the default run.events event dashboard with a richer, configurable, branded experience.

●The run.events Smart Hub automatically displays an event registration button, linking directly to the registration form.

●Attendees who are logged in and have a ticket can see their ticket immediately on their profile header.

●Event data (sessions, speakers, sponsors, agenda) is pulled directly from run.events — no duplication needed.

●Sessions favourited in the community are synced with the run.events mobile app and personal schedule.

●The AI support assistant draws from event FAQs, articles, and video transcripts to answer attendee questions.

**Reuse across editions:** A run.events Smart Hub can be reused across event editions. Simply update the linked event to point to the new year's edition — all content, members, and configuration carry over. No need to rebuild from scratch.

**One Smart Hub = one event**. Each community can be linked to at most one event at a time. If you manage multiple events, create a separate run.events Smart Hub for each, or use a run.events Smart Hub without an event link as a general hub and include a list of upcoming events.

**run.events Smart Hub as a Lead Collection Tool**

When anonymous browsing is enabled (recommended for event communities), visitors can browse the community without logging in. However, when they choose to join — either by clicking "Join" or signing in — they become a tracked Smart Hub member.

In the Members section, organizers can see: :

●Who has joined

●Whether that person holds a ticket

●Whether they have opted in to receive emails

This makes the run.events Smart Hub a light-touch lead collection and audience insights tool — useful for identifying prospects who haven't yet purchased a ticket, enabling targeted follow-up.

### Single Session Widget implementation

> Learn how to implement a single session widget by modifying the sessions widget and creating a dedicated page for session details using the event slug identifier.

**Published:** April 15, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/single-session-widget-implementation

**Single Session Widget implementation**

If you want session details to open on a separate page, you will need to make some slight adjustments to the sessions widget itself (the widget which lists sessions on your website), and create a separate webpage that will display single session details. It will be enough to create one page; you don’t need to create a separate page for each session.

For widget implementation you will need:

- **web pages (sessions and single session)**
- **event slug – identifier**

How to find event slug (identifier)?

You can find it in your organizer URL shown in the next picture.

 ![c799df294868b3e6750d3558b42f62e2](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/7d8f473c-d567-46bf-97aa-d6ac7e67c82a)

Or – navigate to: Settings -&gt; Widgets and links where you can find unmodified session widget with your event-slug-identifier.

![6497131ef47463c03eb7854844fcf679](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/0b71c1ba-91ad-4c47-9b66-e2bbe328c85f)

**Setup Instructions**

Open the page where you have a widget that lists all the event sessions and modify the widget code. These are the required changes for the single session widget code to work:

&lt;runevents-sessions
 checkout-url="https://e.runevents.net"
 api-url="https://api.runevents.net/api"
 slug="your-event-identifier"
 redirect-url="[https://your-website.com/your-page-for-single-..."](https://your-website.com/your-page-for-single-sessions/)
 &lt;/runevents-sessions&gt;

Important note: The last line of the widget above contains the "redirect-url" parameter. This parameter specifies where your website visitors will be redirected to after clicking on a session in sessions page.
 After the redirect, that page needs to display the relevant session data using a widget. This means you’ll need to add another widget, on the single session page.

The code should look like this:

&lt;runevents-single-session
 api-url="[https://api.run.events/api"](https://api.run.events/api)
 slug="your-event-identifier"
 square-modal-image="false"&gt;
 &lt;/runevents-single-session&gt;

Note: The [[square-modal-image="false"]] parameter makes the speaker images appear circular. Below is an example of how the single session page will look like.

 ![a8306fc84212a4bcb81a410f6cf0c735](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/f89d3d5b-4d70-4697-ba03-3d7afecaaa02)

### Global and Event Modules in the run.events Mobile App

> Learn how the run.events mobile app switches between global and event-specific modules, with clear visual cues and tailored search options for networking.

**Published:** April 14, 2026
**Author:** Nina Baras
**URL:** https://community.run.events/a/global-and-event-modules-in-the-run-events-mobile-app

**Global and Event Modules in the run.events Mobile App**

**Global run.events Mobile App Module**

When you open the run.events mobile app, you first enter the **global run.events module**. This is the default landing area for all users who are not yet within an event environment.

**Identifying Global Mode**

You can always confirm that you are in the global module by checking the **top-left corner** of the screen:

- If      it displays **run.events**, you are in the global view.

 ![42ece3813110f59802f1404a3c2a82f4](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/e068a029-ae85-4a34-a204-bab1178bac8f)

**Search Options in Global Connect**

In the **global module**, you can browse and connect with anyone who has made their profile public. This space is designed to help users discover people, explore upcoming events, and navigate the platform at a broader level.

The global Connect module offers two search filters:

- **Name**
- **Company**

These options allow for basic discovery while keeping the global directory simple and lightweight.

**Landing Behaviour**

If a user does **not** have an active event ticket, they will always land in the global module. From here, they can:

- See      events they have tickets for (if any)

 ![84e49eba48c1753f6ad36a5925cef12c](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/705f6bc7-472b-4e3d-803e-a374f2663ab7)

- Browse      other upcoming events

 ![e99abfabaff1178c6ffa0b4fd3d4899c](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/d032fd85-1d55-40a8-a740-cd68968c24a5)  ![cee6d80611cd82305197a740a4b43242](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/8da711df-3c54-4ab0-8ef9-1171e5885779)

- Connect      with public profiles using the limited global search filters

 ![c68d889c8be8f1bfbe3ad99e26211cc0](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/5c40d957-05f6-473e-ba23-cde5056fcbe8)

This global behaviour has been part of the app for the past five years and is intentionally designed to support users who attend multiple events from different organizers.

**Event Module**

If you have a ticket for a specific event, you can switch from the global module into the **event module**.

To enter event mode:

- Tap **Events**      (bottom left)
- Select      your event

 ![0260cd0127dcf546bd49b2d2034bb492](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/bec54cdb-7a39-4cb2-bc65-3305e5ea5cfc)

Once inside the event module, you are viewing a dedicated environment tailored to your selected event.

**Identifying Event Mode**

You can confirm you are in event mode by checking the **top-left corner**:

- The      event name replaces **run.events**

This visual cue ensures you always know whether you are browsing globally or within a specific event.

 ![9efcd4a28ee1bc2b0ddb15560ef7ac17](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/63435a29-a8a3-4943-aa55-b4c51e9afdfb)

**Search Options in Event Connect**

The event-level Connect module provides expanded search capabilities:

- **Name**
- **Company**
- **Job      Role**
- **Country**

These additional filters help attendees find relevant participants more easily and support meaningful networking within the event community.

Learn more: Connect & Chat with Attendees | For Event Attendees | run.events

**Automatic Event Landing**

For attendees with a valid ticket:

- Starting      **7 days before the event**, the app automatically opens in **event      mode**
- This      ensures quick access to event-specific features and participant networking

If the event is more than 7 days away, the user will still land in the global module and can manually enter the event.

It introduces a **structured booking flow** that helps sponsors generate leads, organise their time, and engage more effectively with attendees throughout the event.

With this functionality, sponsors can easily arrange meetings with attendees by proposing a time and place, selecting from their available meeting slots, and choosing the attendee directly from the searchable attendee list.

**Permissions for Sponsor Staff**

Sponsor representatives can manage team permissions:

- **Meetings**      — allows access to all meeting related features

If unchecked, the staff member cannot see or use the Meetings section.

Before creating meeting slots, make sure that you — and any colleagues who will participate in meetings — have the **Meetings** permission enabled.

**Enable the Meetings Role**

- Open the **Sponsorship      Dashboard**
- Go to **Team Members**
- Activate the **Meetings**      permission for yourself and for any staff members who will hold meetings      with attendees

Once enabled, a **Meetings** tab will appear in the left‑hand menu.

**Creating Meeting Slots**

Go to: Sponsorship dashboard -&gt; Meetings

**Meeting Slots**

To create a new slot:

- Click **Add Slot**
- A flyout opens where you      can define:
    - **Start date & time**
    - **End date & time**
    - **Meeting place**
    - **Notes** (optional)

 ![a2b5ea02b9e63680a5276b693f34e14a](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/a56dccc7-3028-430d-9dcf-1120622dab57)

- Click **Save**
- The slot appears in the      list with the status **Free**

 ![ce98a437351b69abeb633ce18e96b83f](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/3d077ccd-aacc-4eae-88e1-a2477da3ace7)

Slots are created one at a time and belong to the **partnership**, not to individual staff members. Any team member with the Meetings permission can view and manage all slots.

**Meeting slot visibility**

Once the meeting slots have been created and are in **“Free”** status, they automatically become visible in the mobile app on the sponsor’s profile page, under **“Book a Meeting”**. From there, attendees can browse the available slots and book a meeting by selecting any of the times you have published.

![2d34351d42ddaeb28a356eaebae06675](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/607d8e26-5e04-40f2-a462-6c84dcbe5a2e)

**Approaches to Organizing Meetings from the Sponsorship Dashboard**

Sponsors have two flexible ways to organize meetings with attendees. Both methods start with creating meeting slots, but differ in how the meetings are initiated.

**Option 1: Create Meeting Slots for Attendees to Book Freely**

You can create meeting slots and leave them in **“Free”** status. When slots are free:

- They immediately appear in the **mobile app** under your sponsor profile, in the **“Book a Meeting”** section.
- Attendees can browse all available times and **choose the slot that works best for them**.
- Once an attendee books a slot, the meeting is reserved, and you receive a notification to review and accept it.

This approach is ideal when you want to offer open availability and let attendees initiate the meeting.

**Option 2: Create Meeting Slots and Schedule a Meeting Directly with an Attendee**

You can also create meeting slots and use them to **proactively schedule a meeting** with a specific attendee.

In this case:

- You select one of your created slots.
- You choose the attendee you want to meet with.
- You send the meeting request directly.
- The attendee receives a notification and the meeting appears in their **My Agenda**.

**Organize a Meeting**

Click **Organize a Meeting**

**Search for Attendees**

Sponsors can proactively reach out to attendees.

Search by:

- First      name
- Last      name
- Full      name
- Company

Result cards show profile photo, name, company, job role, biography, and attendee role.

 ![661ed935026ae91500c5d1e059c4be35](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/0601f3fc-3804-4322-80e4-41fe3c045643)

Only attendees who:

- Have      a ticket for the event
- Have      assigned their ticket
- Have      a **public profile** enabled will appear in search results.

**Arrange the Meeting**

After selecting an attendee:

- Choose      an existing slot
- Create      a Custom time\*

 ![12529c3a4e006157c2f43005de7be598](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/9aa057fb-88f7-402a-825c-6f3088b77f93)

- Enter      meeting details
- Send      Meeting Request

Note: A Custom time does not require a pre-created slot – it lets you propose any time directly to the attendee without reserving a slot from your list.

 ![316d87825bccfc9268da092bad73ce77](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/56dc9560-7d7e-4835-a487-0fb7666fad35)

If a slot is selected, it becomes **Reserved**.

**![79627782a4e69b55b90c5b30a92883ec](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/977b6762-110c-43ad-831d-b7e6b3d40be0)**

**Editing a Slot**

Meeting slots can be edited **only while they are in “Free” status**.

Once a slot has been **R** **eserved**or **B** **ooked**by an attendee, it can no longer be edited. In those cases, you would need to cancel the existing meeting (if appropriate) and create a new slot with the correct details.

Click any slot to:

- Change      the meeting place
- Update      the note
- Change      the status (Free → Reserved → Booked)
- Delete      the slot (only if not linked to a meeting)

Changing a slot to **Reserved** or **Booked** hides it from attendees.

 ![a4f59d7e0cd06336b70c040d7f50b419](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/f6af59c8-9f0b-4aa4-803b-2bb5701abd4c)

**Meeting Status Lifecycle**

Meetings can move through the following statuses:

| **Status** | **Meaning** | **Slot Effect** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Accepted (Yes)** | Counterpart<br>   accepted | Slot becomes **Booked** |
| **Declined (No)** | Counterpart<br>   declined | Slot returns to **Free** |
| **Maybe** | Pending | No slot change |
| **Cancelled** | Initiator cancels | Slot returns to **Free** |

When a meeting is accepted, a **lead is automatically created** for the sponsor if one does not already exist.

**Email Notifications**

Email notifications are automatically sent when meeting statuses change.

**Examples**

- Sponsor      requests a meeting → Attendee receives an invitation
- Attendee      requests a meeting → Sponsor staff receive a notification
- Meeting      accepted → counterpart receives confirmation
- Meeting      declined or cancelled → counterpart is notified

Emails use event branding and support placeholders such as: Attendee Name, Sponsor Name, Meeting Date, Meeting Time, Meeting Place, Meeting Note

**Meetings Page Overview**

The Meetings page contains:

**Meeting Slots**

A list of all time slots created by the sponsor partnership. Each slot shows:

- Time      and location
- Status:      **Free**, **Reserved**, or **Booked**

**Sponsorship Dashboard: Assets**

The **Assets** tab allows Sponsor Representatives to upload and manage all materials that will appear on their sponsor profile in the event website (if enabled) and in the run.events mobile app. These assets help attendees learn about your company, connect with your team, and explore your products or giveaways.

You can manage the following categories:

- **Contacts**
- **Assets      (documents & links)**
- **Products      & Services**
- **Giveaways**

**Accessing the Assets Tab**

Go to: **Sponsorship Dashboard → Assets**

If your sponsorship package includes a dedicated sponsor subpage on the event website and mobile app, you will see all available asset categories here. If category is not visible, it may not be included in your sponsorship package. Contact the event organizer to confirm what is available for you.

**Contacts**

 Contacts allow you to display key people attendees can reach out to. These appear on your sponsor profile and make it easy for attendees to connect with the right person on your team — whether that's sales, support, PR, or any other function. Multiple contacts can be added for different purposes, helping drive leads and networking opportunities throughout the event.

**Assets (Documents & Links)**

 Assets allow you to share brochures, whitepapers, product sheets, pitch decks, or external links with attendees, making your marketing materials easily accessible directly from your sponsor profile.

This gives attendees the opportunity to explore your company, products, and services both before and during the event.

**Reports**

Reports are modules found in your **Organizer Dashboard** that display informational graphs across recent timeframes — including days, weeks, and months. Each graph provides data about your event's attendees and speakers, giving you a clear picture of your event's performance at a glance.

 ![52072b9b6b062b86f152fde3419f1205](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/522b80b8-1fcc-446d-9dc2-20a2b10f6eb3)

Reports are available in two sections of your dashboard:

- Tickets And Attendees: [Tickets And Attendees Reports | Ticketing & Registration | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/article/tickets-and-attendees-reports)
- Content And Speakers: [Content and Speakers Reports | Content and Speakers | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/article/content-and-speakers-reports)

**Exporting Reports**

Every graph in the Reports section can be exported for record-keeping or further analysis. The following export formats are available:

- Print
- PNG
- JPEG
- PDF
- SVG

**Note:** You can only export the information currently displayed on screen. Date selection is not available at the time of export.

The Attendees report dashboard provides detailed information about your attendees, including their ticket type and country of residence. Beyond these two core data points, this report also surfaces all **custom fields** created within your ticket types.

 ![690d5c87d666c54dbc6b49aaf9adad9d](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/99c5d5ff-a97b-418e-82cc-c648e4f4456e)

Custom field charts can be especially useful for gathering key logistical information in one place — for example, T-shirt sizes, dietary requirements, or any other data you've collected during registration. If you're planning to distribute merchandise, you can use this report to see exactly how many of each size you'll need to order.

**Note:** All charts are available for export in PNG, JPEG, PDF, and SVG formats.

**Customers**

Go to: Tickets And Attendees → Reports -&gt; Customers
 The Customers report dashboard helps you visualize information about the types of payments made for your event. This includes whether payments were made by a company or an individual.

 ![304fd935c1a969d1d79d781145ebf165](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/afcc83ce-c4ed-4c7a-92d9-794deff70778)
 Additional charts within this dashboard highlight your **top customers**, giving you a quick view of who your most active buyers are.

**Options**

Go to: Tickets And Attendees → Reports -&gt; Options

The Options report dashboard provides detailed information about all **ticket options** selected within a specific period — broken down by days, weeks, and months. The first chart shown is particularly valuable, as it reveals which options are most popular and interesting to your customers, helping you make informed decisions about future event offerings.

 ![ac8a0fbf4f4dc38161ea11c12e8925b0](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/d0eb34b4-bc36-40af-b1c9-bc926503ba78)

**Addons**

Go to: Tickets And Attendees → Reports -&gt; Addons

The Addons report dashboard provides insight into all **ticket add-ons** purchased alongside tickets, along with the periods in which they were purchased — broken down by days, weeks, and months. The first chart focuses on the number of add-ons sold, making it easy to identify which add-ons are most popular among your attendees.

**Content and Speakers — Reports**

**Sessions**

Go to: Content And Speakers → Reports → Sessions

The Sessions report gives event organizers a comprehensive summary of session counts organized by various categories, including:

- **System Status** — the current status of each session
- **Buckets** — groupings assigned to sessions
- **Labels** — tags applied to sessions
- **Submissions over time** — showing how many sessions were submitted over the course of several weeks

**Note:** All charts are available for export in PNG, JPEG, PDF, and SVG formats.

**Speakers**

Go to: Content And Speakers → Reports → Speakers

The Speakers report dashboard contains multiple graphs that present your speakers segmented by **status**, **label**, and **country of residence**.

A few things to keep in mind when reading this report:

- The status graph shows how many speakers are currently in each status stage.
- The label graph counts speakers per label. Since a single speaker can hold multiple labels (e.g., "Microsoft" and "AI"), each label that speaker holds adds +1 to the corresponding pie chart value. This means totals across labels can exceed your total speaker count.
- The country graph shows the geographic distribution of your speakers based on their country of residence.

 ![e8037e8b4b8a14f9be295dd26104af74](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/82dbe9c0-da53-4adc-96c1-43952580f754)

**Booth Configuration per Sponsor**

This guide walks you through the process of configuring booths for individual sponsors after initial booth assignment.

**Methods for Booth Configuration**

Booth configuration can be managed through two distinct access points, depending on the user's role and permissions within the event system.

Sponsors can manage their own booth configurations through the Sponsorship dashboard. Staff members with **Expo management roles** can:

- Review order details and pricing information

For detailed sponsor-side instructions, visit: [For Event Sponsors | run.events](https://community.run.events/knowledge-base/articles/ForEventSponsors)

3. Wait for organizer approval and action

**Pricing and Sponsorship Bundling**

- You can: Adjust prices for individual sales

**Booth Assignments & Order Tracking**

Sponsor booth assignments are managed through customizable templates that streamline the allocation process. When a booth is assigned to a sponsor, the order status can be updated to maintain transparency and keep all stakeholders informed.

A centralized tracking system monitors all booth orders, including key details such as:

- Sponsor name
- Booth location
- Order status

This ensures efficient oversight and management across all booth allocations.

**Progress Tracking**

Booth setup progress is tracked through three distinct stages:

**Preparing**

Initial setup phase:

- Define the booth name/number
- Add comments
- Specify booth size
- Select the booth template
- Assign occupants (sponsor)
- Set pricing

**Configuring**

Active configuration phase:

- Design specifications are defined (uploaded)
- Booth order details are reviewed
- Sponsor and organizer collaborate

**Finished**

Final stage after booth configuration confirmation by organizer or sponsor:

Note:

- **“Occupied”** indicates assignment to a sponsor
- **“Finished“** indicates configuration confirmation

 ![c6a129f7734a0ecde04bd43d113ccfc4](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/e1e25ceb-713b-4425-b21f-2cb69e5e5c79)

**Collaborating with External Partners**

Event organizers can extend booth management capabilities to external partners, such as expo and booth construction companies, by adding them as event team members.

**Steps to Grant Access:**

1. Add the external partner as  event team member
2. Assign appropriate event role (e.g., **Expo      Manager)**
3. Restrict permissions to booth-related data only

This approach allows external partners to:

- View booth specifications and requirements directly
- Access necessary order details without full      organizer privileges
- Streamline communication and reduce administrative      overhead

By limiting access to booth-related information only, you maintain security while enabling efficient collaboration with third-party vendors.

> Learn how to create, manage, and track sponsorship contracts with custom pricing, packages, and detailed agreements for your event sponsors.

**Sponsorship Contracts**

Sponsorship Contracts allow you to create customized offers for your sponsors by combining sponsorship items and packages into a single agreement. Each item or package can be offered at its standard price or at a custom price tailored to the sponsor. This flexibility helps you build personalized and well‑structured sponsorship deals.

**Purpose of Sponsorship Contracts**

Sponsorship contracts serve to:

- Formalize      the agreement between you and the sponsor
- Define      which items and packages are included in the deal
- Record      pricing, discounts, and custom arrangements
- Store      all relevant contract details in one place
- Provide      a clear overview of each sponsor’s commitments and entitlements

**Creating a New Sponsorship Contract**

After adding a sponsor to your event, you can create a contract in two ways:

**Option 1: Through Sponsorship Deals**

- Go      to **Sponsorship Deals**.
- Click      the **Edit** button next to the sponsor.
- A      flyout window will open.

 ![5a5002dc8cd1538ce66f6004833bb3ed](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/24747164-216e-486d-af28-5cbfc364b653)

**Option 2: Through the Sponsorship List**

- Go      to **Sponsorship List**.
- Click      on the sponsor’s name.
- A      flyout window will open.

In both cases, navigate to the **Contracts** tab to begin configuring the contract.

 ![e8574dbb2bb6d03da8d754459725f92f](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/e62ec64d-9361-4aa5-8792-59afe68a3ebc)

**Contract Details to Configure**

Within the **Contracts** tab, you can define:

- **Contract      Name**
- **Status**      (e.g., Draft, Sent, Signed)
- **Contract      Date**
- **Signed      By** (name of the person signing on behalf of the sponsor)
- **Internal      Comments** (visible only to your team)

 ![593925f9cebf5fb2dedeb4415e302f8e](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/2d01684d-40b6-4f16-b41f-8b7d7c9c78b0)

**After the Contract Is Signed**

Once a contract is marked as signed, you will see a complete overview of the agreement, including:

- **Basic Contract Information -** All key details such as name, date, status, and internal notes.

 ![d9f3a584bf284de4230e8cc27a98b9b9](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/1ada1f14-bbbf-4f41-a644-e4ca9c7dd385)

- **Sponsorship Packages and Items -** You can add or adjust packages and individual items included in the contract.

 ![9ce06eb0f82c64884f4f150583bab149](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/fac201b0-6770-420d-b526-4ca24f547619)

- **Custom Fields for Sponsorship Contracts -** Any custom fields you have created (e.g., internal references, uploaded documents, additional requirements) will appear here.

 ![439dec9a52df2dbcd0bd7dfe5ccbbdf5](https://pages.runevents.net/organizer-multimedia/226/9f479f16-9964-47bd-84b6-afb0df115f40)

All contract details remain editable so you can keep your records accurate and up to date.

**Where to Manage Sponsorship Contracts**

Go to: **Event Level → Sponsors → Contracts**

This screen displays all sponsorship contracts in a structured table view, allowing you to:

- Review      contract statuses
- Open      and edit individual contracts
- Track      progress across all sponsors

This centralized view ensures efficient contract management throughout your event planning process.

**Custom Fields for Sponsorship Contracts**

Custom fields in Sponsorship Contracts allow you to capture additional, detailed information for each contract. These fields help ensure that all agreements with sponsors are complete, well‑documented, and tailored to your event’s needs.

**When to Use Custom Fields for Sponsorship Contracts**

Use custom fields when you need to store information that is not included in the default contract fields—for example:

- Internal      notes or approval references
- Contract-specific      requirements
- Additional      sponsor details
- Legal      or compliance information
- Uploaded      documents related to the agreement

Custom fields help you maintain a structured and comprehensive contract record.
