I led a team of 4 in planning and delivering a social ventures summit. The summit is a premier platform for advancing long-lasting solutions and connections. My vision was to accelerate community-wide growth by uniting key-players in a collaborative pursuit of system-wide change by creating open information exchange, fostering an increased understanding of the system and developing enhance relationships amongst attendees. To better imagine the interactions by experience mapping and creating customer personas.
The summit convened 120+ innovative and ambitious practitioners to challenge common entrepreneurial approaches, promote networking and foster a culture of engagement. I created a network map based on a qualitative survey that revealed how the event doubled the relationships amongst attendees and created a tighter, busier network.
After the summit, I wanted to understand how the network of participants is connected. I was curious: in what ways did the summit affect turning individuals into a network? Who formally connected during the summit and when did they connect? In what ways did they connect? What in the format of the summit helped in creating those connections? In order to do that an x-ray of the relationships amongst participants (a network map) is needed. A post-event survey was used to collect binary and categorical data from the summit participants about the relationships they made then a system mapping visualization tool was used to create network maps.
