As event organisers, finding partners we can trust is crucial yet daunting. Between
flashy marketing and empty promises, how can we cut through the noise to assess 
what solutions will truly support our event vision?

In this revealing episode, I roleplay an event organiser grilling a potential event
technology supplier. My guest? Max from Canapii – an all-in-one event management
platform.

With a conversational approach, I put Max in the hot seat with questions we as organisers
need answered before even considering a demo.

### Question framework

When talking with potential suppliers, I try and cover the following:

 1.  What core pain points or event struggles do you help organisers solve?
 2.  How specifically would your solution enhance the attendee experience for my event
     type?
 3.  What level of customisation and flexibility does your platform/service allow?
 4.  How do you make your technology intuitive and easy to adopt for event staff and
     attendees?
 5.  What education, training and support is included both pre-event and onsite?
 6.  Can you explain the end-to-end journey an attendee would have with your solution?
 7.  How do you help facilitate connections and engagement between event participants?
 8.  What complementary technologies and services can you recommend or connect me with?
 9.  What opportunities exist to provide value to attendees before, during and after
     the live event?
 10. Could you summarise what sets your company apart in the event industry?
