Slide 2 — Background & Opportunity
The Live Events Ecosystem Is Fragmented
Live events are everywhere—concerts, conferences, community gatherings—but the experience of finding and committing to events remains broken.
Discovery is scattered across platforms, trust signals are inconsistent, and timing often determines whether someone attends or misses out entirely.
Opportunity: Design a unified experience that helps people confidently decide what to attend and when to act.
Slide 3 — The Problem
Discovery ≠ Decision
Users don’t struggle to find events.
They struggle to decide.
They struggle to decide.
Common friction:
Too many sources, no single view
Unclear relevance and quality
Fear of missing out or committing too late
Poor visibility into timing, availability, and momentum
Result: Missed experiences and underutilized events.
Slide 4 — Target Users
Who We’re Designing For
Primary Users
Socially active professionals
Travelers and urban residents
People seeking meaningful experiences, not just entertainment
Secondary Users
Event organizers
Venues and promoters
Local communities
All users share a need for clarity, confidence, and timing.
Slide 5 — Stakeholder Ecosystem
A Multi-Sided Experience
Events360 operates at the intersection of:
Attendees looking for relevance and confidence
Organizers needing visibility and conversion
Venues & partners seeking reach and utilization
Platforms & data sources feeding discovery
The product must balance human experience with business incentives.
Slide 6 — Research & Exploration
Understanding the Real Friction
Research activities included:
Competitive audits of event platforms
User interviews and informal surveys
Journey mapping from discovery to attendance
Analysis of drop-off points in the decision cycle
Key question: Where does excitement turn into hesitation?
Slide 7 — Key Insights
What We Learned
Decision fatigue is the biggest blocker — not lack of options
Timing signals matter more than price for commitment
Social proof and momentum increase confidence
Users want reassurance, not persuasion
Events succeed when users feel informed, aligned, and ready.
Slide 8 — Problem Reframe
From Discovery Platform to Decision Support
Initial assumption:
“If we show people more events, they’ll attend more.”
“If we show people more events, they’ll attend more.”
Reframe:
People attend events when they feel confident in their choice at the right moment.
People attend events when they feel confident in their choice at the right moment.
Design challenge:
How might we reduce uncertainty and increase confidence at the point of decision?
How might we reduce uncertainty and increase confidence at the point of decision?
Slide 9 — Experience Principles
Design Principles That Guided the Product
Clarity over volume — fewer, better signals
Timing is a feature — urgency without pressure
Context builds confidence — relevance beats popularity
Momentum matters — show when others are committing
These principles balanced UX quality with business outcomes.
