SOMALIA: Event Management System
SECTOR: Organizational Capacity
DEMOGRAPHIC: The main demographic of people benefitted by this solution will be attendances at the planned event. The estimated number of people is 4000.
HUMANITARIAN NEED: The challenge from iRise is not a typical RIL challenge as it is not directly a humanitarian need, but more of an organizational challenge caused by the context of Somalia, which leads to prohibitive printing costs and challenges with convening humanitarian (and other) actors.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: iRise are seeking lower and minimize the printing cost for the summit through using innovative and technology. The printing cost in Somalia is prohibitively expensive and we want to reduce through using and applying technology and innovation. In doing so, we want to launch the first technology enabled summit in Somalia through introducing mobile App on iOS and Android where participants can access and download the entire agenda at finger point. Secondly, we need to introduce online registration system that will enable participants to register beforehand and collect their badge at the entry of the Mogadishu Tech Summit.
