Innovative Solutions for Large-Scale International Events

Capturing multiple simultaneous sessions at a major international conference with speed and accuracy—while delivering same-day summaries to participants—is no small challenge.

We met it head-on with a breakthrough approach combining AI technology and human expertise.

Project Overview

The Client
For years, Urban Connections has been the trusted partner for a prestigious international forum exploring science, technology, and society’s future.

This forum brings together global leaders across fields: Nobel laureates, government ministers, CEOs, research directors, and prominent journalists. Over three days, approximately 40 sessions unfold simultaneously, demanding comprehensive, real-time documentation.

The Challenge
・Document numerous concurrent sessions efficiently
・Deliver same-day summaries for immediate participant access
・Produce detailed, publication-ready content for official reports
・Capture complex, specialized discussions with precision

Our Solution: AI Meets Human Intelligence

In 2024, our client set an ambitious goal: integrate AI into their documentation workflow itself. For a forum examining technology’s societal impact, this was an opportunity to lead by example and implement cutting-edge AI at scale

How We Delivered: Strategic Team Design

A Dual-Track Approach

We built a new AI Summary Team, effectively doubling our capacity:
・Traditional Summary Team: Seasoned writers crafting the detailed narratives for official reports
・AI Summary Team: Specialists leveraging AI for rapid transcription while maintaining human oversight throughout each session—checking technical terms, proper nouns, and nuanced content where AI needs guidance

Seamless Workflow Management
Expert coordinators managed the AI-enhanced process from planning through execution, ensuring quality never wavered despite accelerated timelines.

The Results

Speed Meets Precision

AI-generated summaries appeared on venue touchscreens immediately after sessions ended, giving participants instant access to key takeaways while discussions were still fresh.

Quality Without Compromise

By combining AI efficiency with human expertise, we delivered content that exceeded expectations: fast, accurate, and reliable.

A Proven Mode

This dual-track approach provided built-in quality assurance, with each method validating the other. Its success became the foundation for expanded services the following year, establishing a scalable framework for AI-human collaboration in conference documentation.
