Organizers overview
A Space is the Emblema entity that represents a tech community, a conference, a meetup group, or any organization that runs events. The Space role is what you activate to manage events, run Calls for Papers, issue badges and gather feedback.
Space categories
When creating a Space you pick one category:
| Category | Best for |
|---|---|
| Community | Developer communities, user groups, meetup organizations. |
| Event organizer | Independent event organizers who run multi-event programmes. |
| Conference | Single-conference brands with annual or multi-day events. |
| Company | Tech companies running their own communities or external events. |
| Education | Universities, bootcamps, training programmes. |
The category influences default settings and the way the Space is presented on its public page; it does not change the available features.
What the Space role unlocks
| Feature | Where it lives |
|---|---|
| Spaces — create, switch, archive | /dashboard/space |
| Events — create, edit, publish | /dashboard/space/<id>/events and per-event sub-pages |
| Agenda — schedule talks and breaks | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/agenda |
| C4P — review applications, accept/decline | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/c4p |
| Attendees — list, check-in, communications | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/attendees |
| Badges — design and issue (incl. Open Badges 3.0) | /dashboard/space/<id>/badges and per-event badges |
| Team — invite collaborators with granular roles | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/team |
| Sponsors — manage sponsors per event | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/sponsors |
| Gamification — leaderboards and points | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/gamification |
| Feedback — collect and review event feedback | /dashboard/space/<id>/event/<eventId>/feedback |
The Space area uses the rose accent. If the navigation is indigo or purple, you are in the participant or speaker view.
Public Space page
Every Space has a public page at /space/<spaceSlug> that lists upcoming and
past events, the team, and links to social channels. Events have their own
public page at /space/<spaceSlug>/<eventSlug>.
Roles inside a Space
Once your Space exists, you can invite collaborators. Emblema exposes a fine-grained role model on each Space and event (Owner, Editor, Reviewer, Check-in staff, Viewer). See Team for the exact permissions of each role.
