Overview

As Conference Leadership, you own the conference end to end: its configuration, its people, its money, its program, and its published output. Most of that work happens in the Conference Leadership Console.

What you can do

1. 1

   Set up the conference — core information, mode, policies, branding, and the important dates that drive every phase.

2. 2

   Build your team — invite committee members and grant the roles that let chairs, reviewers, and staff do their jobs.

3. 3

   Run registration & payments — open registration, manage refunds and exemptions, and connect your payment account.

4. 4

   Reach your audience — post announcements, manage channels, and publish your conference website.

5. 5

   Run the program — organize sessions, venues, time slots, keynotes, and the overall schedule in the Presentation System.

6. 6

   Publish proceedings — compile and release the conference's published output.
