Agenda and Attendee event app
In October, registered attendees can create and modify their own schedules via the attendee event app.
Sessions cater to all proficiency levels, offering a dedicated track for new Smartsheet users, while providing advanced sessions to empower those of you that live and breathe Smartsheet and unlock greater organizational potential.
Accessible via web and mobile app, the Attendee event app serves as the interactive nerve center of ENGAGE for conference attendees. You can view breakout sessions and customize your schedule, personalize your profile, discover and connect with other attendees, join discussion groups, browse speaker bios, tag along for some extra fun, and more!
We’ll be launching new content along with mobile app instructions closer to the conference. Stay tuned!
