    1. What challenges have you faced while executing your conference plan? Outgrowing the space contracted, or the format changing and causing us have to reallocate all space and try to make the new format work
    2. How do you currently measure attendee engagement and leverage the data collected? Feedback surveys mainly.  For some of the larger events with an app will look at which speakers have higher engagement scores, what activities did, and what areas could use some more engagement.
