MEETINGS
Velocity5.0

Event management and virtual conference platform for academic and scientific events

Fourwaves follows its participant inbox with a week of admin fixes and security hardening.

◆Current state
Fourwaves ships small daily updates. After the Oct 19 participant DM inbox came: admins of organizations with a delegated payment gateway can connect it to events without waiting for approval, sessions without times can have presentations reordered, and a second round of fixes from an internal security audit. One entry is a header-divider style change.
◆Where it's heading
The product moves in two lanes: networking features for participants (DM alerts, then the inbox) and less organizer friction around payments, data tables and session scheduling. The security-audit follow-ups suggest more hardening releases are coming.
◆Prediction
Expect more small organizer-workflow fixes and further security-audit releases. Participant messaging may get moderation or notification controls next.
