Event Infrastructure.
From CfP to Badge.

CtxEvent is the missing layer between event announcement and participant portal. A complete system for NOG organizers – from the first registration to the printed badge.

Native API integration with CtxMeet: data flows automatically between both systems. No copy-paste, no duplicate data entry.

Event Mailing List

Dedicated mailing list per event. Participants automatically receive confirmations, updates and reminders. The organizer can write directly to all registrants at any time.

CFP

AGENDA_AI

Agenda Scheduling via LLM

Local LLM analyzes confirmed submissions and compares with agendas from RIPE Meetings, IETF, NOGs. Recommends a thematically coherent order – a clear story line.

BADGE

// CALL FOR PAPERS · DEEP DIVE

// AGENDA INTELLIGENCE

The LLM plans the agenda.
You approve it.

After the CfP process, a local LLM analyzes all confirmed presentations. It searches the web for current conferences, RIPE Meetings, IETF, NOG agendas – and recommends an order with a clear thematic thread.

The model trains continuously on NOG-specific data. With every conference it gets better at understanding what the community cares about and how topics should follow each other.

Runs fully locally – no data leaves your system
Analyzes RIR Meetings, NOG agendas, IETF sessions
Recommends slot lengths based on topic and abstract
Identifies thematic clusters and builds story lines
Model training activatable for NOG-specific fine-tuning
