We help conferences, retreats and events elevate their experiences
by creating meaningful relationships for their attendees.
Turn Conversations
Into Connections









Most Conventional Conferences Follow A Very Boring Formula:

Attendees who pay big bucks for a conference do so for THE EXPERIENCE!! - Often the content could be learned without even leaving home. #experiencedesign

SO WHAT CAN YOU DO TO MAKE YOUR CONFERENCE STAND OUT AND BE MEMORABLE?
Take a moment and visualize what the experience could be like for your attendees if you invested in engineering moments of serendipity that allow people to connect…
IMMEDIATELY FEEL LIKE YOU BELONG
What if the moment attendees arrive at registration they feel like they’ve found THEIR people?
SKIP THE AWKWARD SMALLTALK
What if instead of standing around awkwardly at networking breaks attendees had meaningful conversations that lead to long-lasting relationships.
MAKE NEW PROFESSIONAL FRIENDSHIPS
What if attendees connected with each other first on a personal level and then later found out they are also a valuable business connection?
IT FEELS MORE LIKE SUMMER CAMP
What if instead of being at a boring, business conference it feels like you’re just hanging out with new friends?
LEAVE INSPIRED AND SUPPORTED
What if attendees left inspired with new ideas and thoughts, plus a community of like-minded people that will support them to accomplish their goals?
EXPERIENCE A HANGOVER AFTERWARDS
What if attendees leave the conference on such an energetic high that returning to their “default” life gives them a hangover?
WE CAN HELP YOU CREATE A MEMORABLE EXEPRIENCE BY FACILITATING DEEP CONNECTIONS FOR YOUR ATTENDEES
Running a conference comes with a lot of stress and anxiety, so let us take the most important task off your shoulders, so you can focus on creating an amazing program with engaging speakers.
Our mission is to empower community builders, conference organizers, retreat leaders, workshop facilitators and program creators with the tools to facilitate meaningful connections for their attendees.
#1 INTERACTIVE KEYNOTE
Invite me to speak at your event and share resources and tips on how to build rapport with strangers, get beyond small talk and create meaningful connections.
This is a very interactive talk where 50% of the time is dedicated to the audience connecting with each other. When you take action and apply your knowledge right away the retention increases drastically.



#2 FACILITATED WORKSHOPS
We love facilitating conversations and connections as early as possible at a conference, because that is when most people feel awkward and don’t know how to start connecting with each other.
Hire us to facilitate interactive sessions that gets everyone’s energy up and connect with the people around them. This could be from as little as 15 minutes at the beginning of your event, as a break-out session in between heavier content or right before a break where attendees can continue to connect.
#3 ACTIVATIONS
Sometimes all that people need is an invitation to talk to a stranger.
We can setup different activations that will help your attendees connect while waiting in line for registration, coffee or during the lunch break.





#4 EXPERIENCE DESIGN CONSULTING
Let’s book some time where we’ll come up with activities and ideas to help make your event so memorable that you’ll sell out tickets for next year on day 1.
”I reached out to Jan to really help me get a better and more focused way of connecting with my attendees for the conference that I run in Vancouver.
Jan was able to provide me with an abundance of ideas that really fired me up after our call and I cannot wait implement them.
In fact I’ve already implemented a few and I’m excited to continue to take action over the forthcoming weeks in the run-up to the conference.
