With great power also come great responsibilities.

As a BizTechDay curator, there are certain responsibilities you must fulfill. Here they are:

Pre-event

• Selecting and contacting speakers
• Selecting and contacting location sponsors
• Inviting guests: Early on, you’ll need to decide who your event is for: Specific Industries? Specific Genders? This decision will help guide all the decisions that follow.
• Choosing a venue: The environment you choose for your event will both set its tone and dictate its complexity. An ideal setting for BizTech event is 2000-3000 sq foot regular room where all attendees can see each other and interact
• Soliciting sponsorship (if needed): If you have local sponsorship contacts, request permission and standard sponsorship package from BizTech HQ.
• Social Media: 1) Creating  a Facebook event website 2)  Register a Twitter account in the name of your event.
• Clearly communicating expectations: To be clear to your potential guests, speakers, sponsors and support staff about what is expected of them, and what they should expect at your event.

During the Event

• Welcome the community to your venue in your introduction speech
• Connect entrepreneurs and facilitate conversations
• Enforcing the clock to keep the event running on time
• Filming live talks so they can be shared later through social media and the website
• Treating attendees, sponsors, partners and volunteer staff with respect
• Publicly recognizing and say ‘Thank you’ to your sponsors, partners and volunteer staff

Post-Event
