The colour code

Everyone wears the colour of their field.

Seven fields, seven colours. You choose yours when you register, it prints on your pass, and it is the lanyard you are handed at the door — so across a full concourse you can see who does the work you are thinking about.

Pick the field you are after.

Find your people

What are you into?

Say it however you say it. You get the fields to head for, the kinds of people to look for, and something to open with.

The room

Walk up to anyone.

There are tables, but nobody is assigned one. Mingle. The colour on a professional’s lanyard tells you the field they came through.
