BackgroundPayPal's San Jose campus includes an X room conference and event venue which is utilized for everything from large team-wide gathers to guest speakers or global all-hands. As part of our inaugural Developer Conference, a small team of volunteers designed an open-source event management and engagement suite for web and app surfaces.

Goals
|
How might we improve discoverability beyond printed posters?
“I never know what's happening on campus”
“There's so much overhead to planning a conference”
“It's hard to know where I should invest my time without knowing what each breakout session is about”
“Conferences should be easy to attend”

Problem Statement
As a PayPal employee, I want an easy way to discover, RSVP, and attend on-campus conferences, so that I can feel better connected with my colleagues
