HEPCon delivers the official CHEP 2026 mobile and web agenda in Bangkok — the fourth CHEP edition supported, after Sofia 2018, Adelaide 2019, and Norfolk 2023.
View case studyThe Attendee App Layer for Your OpenConf Conference
OpenConf handles your submissions and reviews. HEPCon publishes your event inside the HEPCon app — giving attendees an offline-capable agenda they actually use on site.
What HEPCon Adds to Your OpenConf Event
OpenConf is your system for submissions, peer review, and schedule management. HEPCon is the attendee layer that sits on top of it. Share your OpenConf conference and HEPCon publishes it inside the HEPCon app within 1–2 business days. Your OpenConf setup stays untouched.
Works with any OpenConf install
Standard schedule export — every OpenConf instance has it. No API key, no configuration changes, no developer.
Parallel-session conflict warnings
IEEE / ACM chapter events often run 4–6 parallel tracks. HEPCon flags overlaps in attendees' personal agendas before they happen.
Live change log
Every programme edit becomes a human-readable diff — "Room moved A3 → B1" — on a dedicated mobile page and the home card.
Push on programme change
Re-share your schedule; HEPCon computes the delta and pushes only what changed to attendee devices.
No OpenConf API access required — just the standard schedule export. See pricing →
How It Works — Three Steps, No Integration Required
No API agreement, no custom development, no changes to your OpenConf installation. Just the schedule export your programme committee already produces.
Export from OpenConf
Use the schedule export available in any OpenConf installation — the CSV or spreadsheet your programme committee already produces. No API key, no setup, no configuration changes.
Share the File with HEPCon
Send the file via email or upload it through the organiser dashboard. We validate the structure, flag any gaps (missing rooms, missing time slots), and confirm before publishing. Typically done within 1–2 business days.
Attendees Find Your Event in HEPCon
Your conference appears inside the HEPCon app. Attendees install the app once, find your event, and download the programme for offline use. When you re-export from OpenConf, we push the changes automatically.
How OpenConf Structures Map to HEPCon
HEPCon reads your OpenConf export and organises the data into views designed for on-site use — not programme committee management.
Sessions and Papers
OpenConf sessions become time blocks in the app. Individual papers are the navigable items attendees browse — title, authors, affiliations, and abstract visible in a single tap. Parallel tracks are shown side-by-side so attendees can compare them.
Tracks and Rooms
Track codes from OpenConf become filter categories. Room names become navigable locations, optionally linked to venue maps. Attendees filter by track or room to focus on sessions relevant to them without navigating the full programme.
Authors and Affiliations
Author lists from OpenConf are preserved and searchable. Attendees can find all papers by a given author or institution — useful at research-focused events where networking and collaboration are a primary goal of attendance.
Error Handling Before Go-Live
If a paper is missing a room or time slot in the export, HEPCon flags it in the organiser console so you can fix it at the source in OpenConf before attendees see the gap. You catch data problems before day one, not during.
What OpenConf Doesn't Reach: The Attendee's Phone During the Event
OpenConf is a strong programme-management tool. Once the schedule is set, HEPCon picks up where it stops — on the device, in the corridor, during the live event.
Conflict warnings for parallel IEEE / ACM tracks
IEEE chapter conferences and ACM symposiums often run four to six parallel tracks. Attendees bookmark sessions across them and discover the clash mid-corridor. HEPCon's personal agenda flags overlaps with a summary banner above the schedule and per-row badges — the trade-off is visible before the doors open, not at the doorway.
Late-breaking sessions surface as a “What’s changed” feed
OpenConf does not push schedule changes to attendees' phones. HEPCon does. Every programme edit is recorded as a human-readable diff — "Room moved A3 → B1", "Session added: late-breaking paper 14:00" — on a dedicated mobile page and the home card. Tracking is gated to a configurable event window so prep edits never pollute the feed.
Built for IEEE, ACM, and Engineering Conference Organisers
OpenConf is trusted in IEEE chapters, ACM communities, and technical symposiums where rigorous peer review is a requirement — and where attendees bring high expectations for the digital experience alongside. HEPCon is designed for exactly that context.
- IEEE and ACM chapter conferences and symposiums
- Computing, networking, and systems research meetings
- Engineering and applied sciences technical workshops
- Multi-track academic conferences with dense parallel programmes and technically demanding audiences
