So, here's what I've learned:

- be early to the venue if you're an unorganiser
- have lots of markers, big labels (for name tags), butcher's paper,  
Blu-Tack and Post-Its
- make sure the wifi works - Meraki FTW
- know the venue (we need to visit in the next week to scope it)
- be nice but firm on the time slots
- allow time slots for coffee and lunch
- watch for costs that you weren't told about (wifi cost this weekend)
- logistics matter for the social stuff - drinks, dinner, etc. so we  
need to know numbers
- be careful about scheduling against the 2020 Summit, Cate Blanchett  
had to turn us down ;)

BCS folks, anything I should add or have missed?

Steve

Hi Stephen, 

Alison sent around the complete list of feedback which
you may have seen.

Couple of stand out things that i thought worked
really well.

- speed networking early on in the day. Its a great way
to break the ice and also fits in really well initially when you dont
have many speaking slots filled
- have the schedule well away from the
doors and try not to have too many loud conversations outside the
rooms
- mick and i set up one of the rooms to be more round chair
style (ie. All chairs in a circle). The other rooms were classroom
style. That worked well.
- every barcamp the enterprenuerial type
sessions (advice, success stories, group therapy) tend to get big
crowds so try to encourage any enterprenuers to get together for a
group chat 

Hope that helps
Ivo
