Using teams meetings as an event signup

Hi,

Teams is probably not the best product for what you are looking for. I can describe what we uses Teams for when organising an event in Sweden in a couple of weeks (Teamsdagen).

We uses Teams for collaboration for the Organisation team. We have a couple of different channels and chat threads (with different topics). We upload files to Teams that we work with together, Teams allows many of us to work with the same file at the same time. We also have weekly meetings in Teams, and in these meetings we summarise the discussions from the chat threads in the different channels.

For "Call for Speakers" we used Microsoft Forms. We created a form with a couple of different questions that speakers filled out and sent in to us. Then we also used a Power Automate flow to send a summary the the speaker (e-mail) and to one of our channels in Teams and to a Excel sheet.

To sell the tickets we used Eventbrite that attendees were able to sign up and get their ticket. 

You could use Teams for some of the organisation but if you invite them as guests there is some license requirements, for each Teams license you get you can invite 5 guests. 

So you can use Teams for some stuff and other applications for other stuff.
