with a standard format, key note speakers, concurrent sessions, short breaks, etc.
One thing that worked well (for me) was the conversation opportunities with the
speakers. Not OS however people could get together and enjoy a discussion with
our preferred speaker. I assume other discussion groups were rewarding too, and
the organisers made the most of inviting people with a wealth of experience to
share.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Conference organizers expect them and it makes it easier to invite people. I
have had to deal with speakers, even in conference which I organize.
There is a danger that some people will leave after the main speakers... and
before you have started the open space. I recommend setting it so that
people cannot easily get away. If you can do it... have a speaker in the
morning... and then start the open space and do the first round before lunch. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
