Then perhaps more time could be spent during the conference days focussing on Q&A, facilitated discussion, etc., and going much further towards identifying potential synergy.
This! Less chalk'n'talk, more discussion.

It would make things super agile and more productive. But it requires more commitment to prepare yourself before the event

An excellent idea! Some of us who are planning to attend and are taking part in these discussions already see ourselves as working together, in a fairly loose sense, anyway. The Coronavirus might be giving us the opportunity to leap forwards. It may be that the Zeitgeist is suddenly ready for very local networks of people to set up because they see it is the obviously best way. Platform coop? Community support? New Commons? What tools do we have ready now to support this?

Like this idea!! Could submissions of pre-recorded content be kept completely open, to allow ANYONE the opportunity to propose delivering a session alongside the pre-arranged/keynote content? Provided each submission came with a decent abstract, then the days immediately before the conference could be spent collectively choosing which recordings would become the subject of the facilitated discussions, and all the others could just stay in a repository that we can browse at will?

Agnostic on whether to run the conference. It depends on the benefits/harm to Open Coop itself

We could do chapter or mini-events by country or region, so we keep the human interaction with out high risk

First, we should study where attendees are going to be located. Then see what is a timeline that could work for most of us. Let's say that there are people from San Francisco to Melbourne, so make it between 1 and 4 GMT 0 and in several days, until to finalize the content, by this way the ones that are far away from the central time zone don't need to awake so early and others don't need to go to sleep so late.

Does anyone have experience of or know any of the organisers of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's "Disruptive Innovation Festival"? It has been successfully running entirely online for several years (https://www.thinkdif.co/) so there must be a lot they have learned.
