Description

Fourwaves is conference management software for academic conferences: abstract submissions, peer review, registration, event website, program and conference app in one platform, built for researchers at universities, scientific societies and research networks. Fourwaves runs academic conferences of any size, from international society meetings to departmental research days. Organizers collect abstracts, run single or double-blind peer review, build the program from accepted work, take registrations and payments through their own payment gateway, publish a bilingual event website and give attendees a free iOS and Android conference app. Every module shares one data layer, so an accepted abstract becomes a program item, a presenter badge and an entry in the conference app without re-keying anything. Every event is archived and can be cloned in one click, so next year's organizing committee starts from the previous setup. Name badges, certificates of attendance, the abstract booklet, targeted emails, Excel exports and a free public API come from the same data. Free Starter plan with 50 abstract submissions per year. Paid plans are flat yearly subscriptions with unlimited registrations, no add-ons and no per-registrant fee. Support answers in a median of under 5 minutes, in English and French, and the platform runs at 99.9% uptime. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Quebec City, Canada, with data hosted in the province of Quebec. Mission: supporting scientific events to break down the silos in research.
