Context
The University of Business and Technology hosts the 19th Asia Pacific Conference on Giftedness (APCG2026) and needed a complete digital backbone for paper submission, peer review, registration, and payments.
The challenge
Coordinate an academic submission/review workflow with a public-facing attendee experience and reliable online payments — on a fixed conference timeline.
Approach
- 01
Adopted OpenConf for the academic submission and peer-review process, extended with custom .NET Core APIs for registration and data flows.
- 02
Built a fast React/Vite frontend for attendees and integrated Amazon Payfort for secure card payments.
Outcomes
Delivered the full platform on schedule, supporting submission, review, registration, and payment in one system.
Recognised with a Certificate of Appreciation from the UBT President for contribution to digital transformation.
