How Speaker Walk-on plays
On their phones
Clap on their phones to fill one applause meter for each person who walks on.
On the host console
Runs the running order from the console and can bring anyone on, replay, skip or fix a name at any moment. Five looks: Keynote Broadcast, The Red Circle, Gala Marquee, Demo Day Terminal and Jharokha Welcome.
On the big screen
At full applause, a portrait in a lit frame, the name in 3D type, the role and two or three credentials, then a calm lower third while they talk.
How it ends: The speaker begins with the lower third on screen. There is no score.
The full description from the games team
A stage moment for every person who walks on: keynote speakers, panels, the host, the chief guest, the families at a sangeet. Guests clap on their phones to fill one applause meter; at full applause the big screen plays a 3D title sequence (portrait in a lit frame, the name in 3D type, the role and two or three credentials), then holds a calm lower third while they talk. Five looks: Keynote Broadcast, The Red Circle, Gala Marquee, Demo Day Terminal and Jharokha Welcome. The host runs the running order from the console and can bring anyone on, replay, skip or fix a name at any moment.
Ready-made versions by occasion

- Conference
Conference — the keynote walk-on and a panel
Delegates clap Simran on stage; her portrait glides in over a floor of light and her name lands in broadcast type. Then the panel lights up one face at a time.
On the phones: “Clap each speaker onto the main stage and see their title sequence.”
- Offsite
Leadership town hall — the CEO walks on to a gala
The newest hire hosts; the whole company claps the founder on under searchlights and a marquee of bulbs, then the leadership panel takes questions.
On the phones: “Clap the leadership onto the stage and see their title sequence.”
- Launch
Launch night — the founder compiles onto the stage
Dealers and press clap; the founder’s portrait builds out of falling pixels, her name types itself out and her credentials print like shipped metrics.
On the phones: “Clap each presenter on and see their title sequence on the big screen.”
- Campus fest
College fest — the chief guest and a surprise headliner
The auditorium claps the chief guest into the red circle; then a surprise guest nobody’s phone knows about until the applause brings him on.
On the phones: “Make some noise to bring each performer on stage.”
- Exhibition
Expo stage talk — a 20-minute slot that starts like a keynote
Visitors in Hall 3 clap the speaker on; one red circle, one light, her name and why to stay for the talk, then a panel of real users.
On the phones: “Clap each exhibitor onto the talk stage and see their title.”
- Wedding
Sangeet — introduce the families at the jharokha
Before the dancing, the emcee introduces each side: guests clap and the carved window opens on the bride’s family, then the groom’s side, and last the couple.
On the phones: “Clap each speaker on for the toasts and see their title.”
The story in the demo
GrowthCon 2026, main stage. The delegates clap the speakers on; Simran opens; Kuljeet is introduced third and corrects the host.
Raj, Simran, Bauji and the rest are an illustrated sample cast, not real people. At your event the same game carries your own names and photos.

Ask the Speaker
Live Q&A for keynotes and town halls: guests send and upvote questions, the AI merges duplicates and groups themes, the moderator decides what goes up.
Creator Studio
Teams invent a product, rescue a bad ad or write a jingle; the AI polishes, paints and judges, and the room votes.
AI Networking Matchmaker
Three quick questions and the AI suggests three people worth meeting, with a reason and an icebreaker; contacts are shared only when both say yes.
Photo Quest
Photo missions around the venue: teams snap or solve, the AI checks each photo against the brief, and the big screen shows the race.
