Summit Tech conference website template
Summit is a one-page site for a conference, summit or launch event, set like an event poster. The event name runs the width of the screen over a keynote photo, a countdown ticks to the doors opening, and the speakers, the two-day programme and the venue follow — ending on a ticket stub with the early-bird price.

About the Summit template
Built for a conference with a date
Summit is a one-page conference site set like an event poster: the event name runs the width of the screen over a keynote photo, and every section after it answers a ticket buyer's question — who is speaking, what is on, where it is, and what it costs.
What's on the page
- A live countdown to the doors opening
- Speakers, each with a page for their talk and bio
- A two-day programme, side by side, with a badge per track and a page per session
- The venue, with transit notes, directions and a map
- Sponsors in three tiers, and a ticket stub with the early-bird deadline
Keeping it current
Speakers and sessions are collections: add a speaker or move a session and the home page, the programme and their own pages all follow. On a phone the programme reads as one day after the other.

Questions about Summit
Do I have to edit every card when a speaker changes?

Does the countdown actually count down?
Yes. Set the event date and it counts down live to the doors opening.

Yes. The Big Shoulders Display and Geist type and the speaker entries, every photo and every colour can be changed in the visual editor, or by asking your AI agent.
