Template wants the venue hyperlinked in both the hook and the location line. 2. **Title reordered to house format** (club name first). Your draft led with "KC AI Expo 2026." Defensible for a flagship — say so and I'll flip it back. 3. **Agenda condensed from seven rows to six** and the 7:30–7:45 gap closed by running floor time to 8:00. 4. **Audience Block B** (broad KC community) per the template's rule for expos. Note this pulls against the "Operators leave with names" tagline on the header art, which is Block A language. 5. **One cancellation policy covers both attendees and tables.** A 3-day window on a $200 table is generous — you may want a separate, longer policy for exhibitors. 6. **"Has met since 2023" dropped** in favor of the standing boilerplate. Easy to add back. 7. **No sponsor line.** 8. Address `12345 W 95th St` — worth one look at the contract before this goes live.
