Grow an established technical event edition over edition, or decide not to - the demand-headroom read, one discrete lever per edition (venue squeeze, track or day addition, venue step-up, price-led growth), the contract-risk gate on venue moves (deposits, attrition penalties, F&B minimums, long lead times), the pricing posture before scaling, and deliberate non-growth (caps, lotteries, shrinking back down) as a real strategy. Use whenever asked whether a conference or hackathon should grow, how to scale capacity, whether to add a track, a day or a venue, or how to stay small under excess demand. Do NOT use for a first launch - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-first-edition - or multi-event portfolios - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-portfolio-strategy.
Launch the first edition of a tech event (conference, hackathon, large meetup) from zero - a minimum viable edition 1, scope discipline against the full vision, the first cross-organization team, the decision-to-doors-open reverse timeline, and a pre-mortem of first-edition-specific risks with written go/no-go dates. Use whenever asked to start a new conference or hackathon, plan a first edition, scope a minimum viable event, form a founding organizer team, or set a launch timeline for an event with no track record. Strategy layer for edition 1 only. Do NOT use to validate demand first - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-market-fit - or to grow an established event - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-growth-strategy.
Read whether a technical event's concept, audience and price combination actually meets demand - before launch (community baseline, CFP oversubscription, saturation mapping), mid-sale (checkpoint ladder and pace index against expected sales), and after an edition (attendee return, sponsor renewal, sellout-speed trend) - composed into a go, hold, pivot or stop call. Use whenever asked to validate demand for a conference, hackathon or a meetup-to-conference jump, judge whether ticket sales are on pace, decide whether an event should recur or scale, or diagnose why an edition underperformed. Reads signals only. Do NOT use for launch scoping - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-first-edition - or growth levers - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-growth-strategy.
Shape one organizing team's set of event properties - flagship conference, meetup series, hackathon, podcast or always-on online space - into a portfolio where each one feeds the others. Covers what each property is for, the funnel path between them, cadence collisions against one team and audience, how much brand, audience list, team and sponsors are shared, the allocation posture, and add/kill criteria written before they are needed. Use whenever asked whether to add a second event or format, how a meetup feeds a conference, how to keep momentum between editions, or which property to retire. Do NOT use for growing one event - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-growth-strategy - or swaps with other organizers' events - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@cross-event-promotion.
