How to create speakers profiles in the Application?

Speakers are often the biggest stars at conferences. They are the ones who attract crowds of attendees, willing to listen to a lecture or take part in a workshop. That is why it is so important to complete their profiles as accurately as possible. Meeting Application allows you to create a module dedicated to the presentation of speakers.

NOTE!

The Speakers module allows you to attach a speaker to a selected session in the agenda. Users, with one click, can move and read the most important information about the speaker and find out in which sessions he/she will speak.

To add a speaker profile, press the (+) Add New Speaker button and fill out the form. It is required to fill in all fields marked with a star (*). However, it is advisable to complete the profile with all available information such as company name, position held or country of origin. It is also possible to add a biographical note and links to the speaker's social media profiles:

Highlighting a speaker with VIP status allows the speaker's profile to be shown at the top of the list. This status will also be visible in the App - in the form of a label next to the name:

You can change the order of the displayed speakers by dragging the created profile to the appropriate place on the list.

Adding a list of speakers is also possible by importing them from a previously prepared csv file. Learn how to import speakers into the Meeting Application.

For speaker's contact information, such as email address and phone number, you can restrict their view to participants in the application. Moving the Show Public button to the right will make the speaker's contact information public for all event attendees. Disabling this option, on the other hand, allows only panel administrators to access this data. This feature works well in cases where a public figure does not want to share their private data:

If your event has more than one group of speakers, such as VIP speakers, moderators, jury, etc., you can add several of the same Speakers modules. Then swap the module names according to the categories of speakers appearing at your event. In case a person has more than one function, such as being a speaker at a lecture and a session moderator at the same time, you only need to complete their profile in one module and then copy it to the next module. In the Speakers module, next to the specific speaker whose data you want to copy, click the multiple dot and then Copy to... :

In the next step, from the Select Module list, select to which module you want to copy the speaker in question and confirm via the Copy button. This will copy the person, with all the description and information, to the next module.

Have a successful event with Meeting Application!
