Where We Stand
The creative core is real: venue walked, agenda drafted, brand direction chosen, community support in hand. Space, chairs, and AV are free.

Backlog
Done: Spark walkthrough and space inspection. In flight: event code, strategy, agenda, venue update, partnerships, branding, promotion, panel. Waiting: food and beverage, expo, post event, remarks. Backlog: AV and technical production, which the agenda cannot run without.
The Room Leaves As Advocates
Everything on this page serves that sentence, so decisions stay easy.
The room leaves as advocates.
They wear the merch.
They take the challenge: if you got something out of today, tell the rooms you belong to about Intuidy.
Intuidy walks away positioned as the hub Kansas City comes to for advice, with partner orgs actively engaged.
Measure it: RSVPs vs attendance, breakout participation, partner orgs in the room, and post-event signals (follow-up replies, new community joins, inbound collabs).

Time
Segment
Notes
4:00
Load-in and setup
Four areas: check-in (2 staff), swag (1), drinks (1), food (1). Chairs set per the walkthrough plan.
4:40
Sound check and team huddle
AV up: mics, playlist tested, carousel looping on screens, numbers 1 to 5 ready at check-in
5:00
Doors
Flow: check-in, get your number, swag, drinks. Every attendee leaves check-in wearing or holding a Let's Build It tee.
5:30
Team intros and opening
Rehearsed, not scripted. Closes with the challenge: got value tonight? Tell the rooms you belong to about Intuidy.
5:45
Panel introduced
Host frames the night and brings up the panel.
5:50
Panel
How we build, how each panelist became a builder, where this goes next. Steer to the harness question and the digital twin story.
6:30
Breakouts by number
Five groups of about 20, each with a facilitator holding a numbered sign. Builders share problems, the team advises.
7:30
Networking, food, music
Food spread and dessert out, playlist up, expo tables and product carousel active, capture owner working the room
9:00
Close
Thanks the room and restates the challenge
9:15
Teardown
Leave Spark better than you found it.
Staffing math: 5 station staff at doors, converting to 5 breakout facilitators at 6:30, plus a host. Minimum team of 7.
Budget
Venue, chairs, and AV cost nothing, so the spend concentrates on what attendees take home: the shirt, the food, and the film.

Shirt line is a working quote, not an order.
Music runs as a playlist over in-house AV. Partner sponsorships can still offset any line: the food spread, the drink station, or the shirt run can each carry a presented-by credit.
The Brand
A strong call to action. It takes Nike’s famous line and makes it a builder’s. The Intuidy mark is the period — eight slices, an Easter egg at the end of the line. Black and white only.

Anton, eight-degree slant, black and white only. The mark is the period on the event line. Shirt: that line on the front, the full Intuidy logo in white on the back. No creed. Never a second color, never one word treated apart from the rest.
Two black heavyweight cotton tees David sent. 100 units. White ink. Front is the Let's Build It line. Back is the full Intuidy logo. Blankstyle's listed rate is one color, one location. We print two, so that option gets a second-location pad.
AS Colour 5026
Classic Tee. Regular fit. 6.5 oz, 22-singles, 100% combed cotton.
$1,560
100 × $15.60 at the 50+ bulk rate. Blanks only. Print extra.
Proposed budget uses the Blankstyle path at $1,873. AS Colour blanks are $37 more before any print. Size curve still open. 2XL/3XL on the LA Apparel may price above the XS–XL decorated rate.
