This month’s Dryfta updates focus on making virtual delivery simpler, attendee navigation faster, and admin controls tighter across matchmaking, submissions, and ticketing.

Event professionals, let’s talk money! It’s time we delve into the thrilling world of monetary prospects intertwined with our beloved profession. Event planning, while primarily aimed at crafting unforgettable experiences, is also a treasure trove of wealth-creating opportunities. Our industry is not just about orchestrating memorable experiences; it’s also a potential minefield of income streams waiting to be discovered. If you’re looking to truly turn events into revenue, it’s time to think creatively about each aspect of your production.

Every conference organizer knows the feeling that when the final list of accepted abstracts is ready, another mountain of work begins. Hundreds of submissions need to be formatted, proofed, categorized by session, indexed by author, and compiled into one clean, readable file for attendees and the public. Traditionally, this process has been exhausting. Copy-pasting from spreadsheets, juggling inconsistent file formats, and checking citation orders could take days.
For event organizers, one of the biggest challenges in hosting international events is managing payments across different currencies. Participants want to pay in their local currency, while organizers need accuracy and consistency in the backend. Until now, many organizers had to juggle multiple systems or restrict attendees to a single currency, creating friction and frustration.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce Multi-Currency Ticketing on Dryfta. With this powerful update, you can now collect payments in more than one currency directly through your event website without additional tools or complicated workarounds.
Collecting abstracts and papers is often the first big milestone in organizing an academic conference. Done manually, it can quickly turn chaotic. With Dryfta’s abstract submission platform, however, you can create a fully online, customizable abstract submission form that adapts to your event’s unique requirements.
The advent of digital software has brought with it some certainly remarkable possibilities for mankind. This is especially true for organizers of scientific conferences and academic events who previously drowned in a sea of disordered abstract submissions on their inboxes. Some submissions come in as word docs while others come in as PDFs, most functional but some out of order. The choice of formatting that researchers take also warrants mild interest. Perhaps, one could work on an entirely new research paper about the human propensity for researchers to forget to include their contact information on their papers.
You’ve published your event, the schedule is live, tickets are selling; until someone tells you they can’t complete their payment. Few things frustrate attendees more than a failed checkout. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the most common payment failures in Dryfta and how to troubleshoot them using the built-in Payment Setup.
As events continue to evolve, so does Dryfta. Our latest round of updates is focused on giving you better ways to connect people, manage complexity, and stay organized without friction. Whether you’re coordinating speakers, handling payments, or helping attendees find the right people to talk to, these new tools are here to make your job easier.
Planning a booth in Barcelona, Frankfurt, Paris or Milan is exciting until you hit the visa page and your brain taps out.
