# Step Conference 2027: a follow up plan

Step Conference runs on 3 and 4 February 2027 at Dubai Internet City. Capture each conversation in a sentence as it ends, sort on both evenings, and write to your priority people by Friday 5 February.

Step Conference runs on Wednesday 3 and Thursday 4 February 2027 at Dubai Internet City. Web Summit Qatar closes in Doha on 3 February 2027, the day Step opens, so if you go to both, tag each note with its event.

## Two days, and the follow up can be a coffee in Dubai

Tuesday 2 February. Send a day and a time to the people you already know who will be there.
As each conversation ends. One spoken sentence: who, what they are working on, what you promised, and whether they are based in Dubai.
Wednesday and Thursday evenings. Pair every card with its sentence, sort the people, send what you said you would send tomorrow.
Friday 5 February. Priority messages, each with one detail and a next step. For people in Dubai, offer a meeting the following week.
Monday 15 February. One more message with something new to anyone silent, then stop.

## The reasoning behind each step

The [conference follow up guide](/guides/follow-up-after-a-conference) explains what to capture, how to sort the pile and what a good first message holds.

Marrow, an app on iPhone and Android in Beta, files a spoken note or a card photo as a person with a follow up and its date.
