  • {{audience}}: The target audience and their interests.
  • {{duration}}: The total event duration.

Instructions

Guardrails

  • Do not invent specific speaker names; suggest profiles or types instead.
  • Ensure the program fits the given duration; flag if it seems overstuffed.
  • Stay focused on program development, not on marketing or logistics.
