| − | @EmilyCongratulations for tnikag adult white space to heart. How do you ensure that attendees use the space and time? Start educating your attendees about that space now. Let them know what's it's for, how they can use, when it's open, etc. Let people know that they can have small informal conversations, discussions and meetings in the room.Use informal seating such as couches, lounge chairs, ottomans, etc. if you can afford it. Set up several seating areas like living or family rooms. You might also include some highboys or cocktail rounds. Add some food and beverage to the room such as coffee and soft drinks. Think about including some computers for people to check email. Make sure you have powerstrips for each of the areas so people can charge phones and computers. Free internet access is another plus that will draw people to the area.Then make sure you have adequate signage for the room onsite, especially if it's off the beaten path. Include inormation in the conference program. Have your speakers mention it from the stage. What are some suggestions from others to ensure that this area is used by attendees? | + | @MidoriLove your aiditdon of leaving chairs unlocked in theater style seating so attendees can organically form their own groups.
