One of my many pet-peeves at conferences... The ID Badge!
Nearly 50 per cent of the Badges are flipped - as a result you end up seeing a blank card. Why don't they print names on both sides? :)
Also, the font size...so small, it is often impossible to read.

One more (I think I should create a thread/blog-post on this :))
Organizers (hotels) in India need to provide plenty of strong (black) coffee! The heavy conference food and boring talks/panels are recipes for sleep.
Good caffeine is available in plenty in U.S. conferences😉

A note for 'Panel Moderators' - Please just 'moderate'! And speak in moderation :) ... Ideally, as little as possible.
Your job is to ask good questions and get the panelists to speak. Not 'grandstand'. Interrupt, only if the panelist is going on for too long, or off-topic.

Not most important thing about Cristiano Ronaldo rape allegations but still annoying to hear on BBC WS news this morning, “Mr Ronaldo denies the allegations”. Memo to UK sports journalists: 2nd name of Iberian/Latin American footballers isn’t necessarily their family name. 
See also Luis Enrique (“Mr Enrique” ffs). Or José Enrique (“and that’s a BRILLIANT tackle by Enrique” ffs). #PetPeeves #NichePetPeeves
Sorry, can’t help it. I’m a pedant and a grammar Nazi and I also love foreign languages and cultures alongside my own.
