Kickoff
summary
Conference converts its unconference into scheduled, discussion-based sessions with no slides, using Zoom chat and raise‑hand to pull people on mic, and a 5 p.m. wrap-up that synthesizes every room. Organizers create shared Google Docs for live notes and key insights, and point to tooling combos used before—Zoom plus YouTube and Slack—to scale: a recent event jumps from under 200 in person to about 1,500 online, demonstrating the format and workflow actually work.
