Organizing an academic conference poses numerous logistical and intellectual challenges, especially as conferences grow in size and scope. Core tasks such as matching submissions with qualified reviewers, organizing sessions around coherent themes, and summarizing presentations require significant time and meticulous coordination. As the volume and diversity of submissions increase, these tasks become even more labor-intensive, and the risk of inconsistencies or errors grows. These demands highlight the need for innovative approaches that can streamline conference organization while maintaining high standards of coherence and accessibility.
