Sessionboard Team Spotlight: Meet Angie Chen

We are thrilled to welcome Angie Chen to the Sessionboard team as our new Senior Account Executive. With a strong background in SaaS sales and a deep passion for helping event professionals succeed, Angie is here to help more teams transform how they manage speakers, content, and programming.

A career built on experience and impact

Angie brings more than 10 years of SaaS sales experience, working with both for-profit and nonprofit organizations — from startups to Fortune 100s — across nearly every industry. Much of her career has been dedicated to sales and marketing platforms, where she partnered with revenue leaders to maximize productivity and drive measurable results.

Two years ago, Angie entered the events industry, selling event and learning management solutions to associations, healthcare systems, universities, and government agencies.

“I quickly fell in love with how passionate this industry is about building meaningful connections and unforgettable experiences,” Angie shares. “I am excited to continue to make an impact on events with Sessionboard.”

Why Sessionboard?

When asked what drew her to Sessionboard, Angie points to the platform’s unique focus:

“Content is the foundation of every event. There is no event without great content to drive inspiration, engagement, and action. Sessionboard gives event planners the tools to identify and build that content efficiently. And while there has been so much chatter about AI in the events industry, very few platforms have truly incorporated it in a way that delivers real results. Sessionboard has — and I believe it will continue to be a disruptor in the industry as the platform evolves.”

Angie’s top 3 favorite Sessionboard features

We asked Angie which Sessionboard features she is most excited to introduce to her network.

• Speaker CRM

“Having a global view of all of your speakers across all events is incredibly powerful. It empowers planners to make strategic decisions about talent and content while saving enormous amounts of time.”

• AI Evaluators

“The ability to create virtual evaluator personas to review session submissions is a game-changer, especially for small event teams that receive hundreds — if not thousands — of submissions. It brings speed, consistency, and focus to what has always been a very manual process.”

• Agenda Scheduler

“The drag-and-drop calendar view makes it so easy to build an agenda from scratch. I love how you can switch between different views and stay organized as your program comes together.”

A fun fact about Angie

Outside of work, Angie loves to go to the beach, cook for friends and family, and snuggle with her dog

“Fun fact: My first language was Mandarin Chinese,” she says.

Looking ahead

We are excited to have Angie on board and cannot wait to see the impact she will make. With her experience, passion for the events industry, and enthusiasm for helping teams work smarter, Angie is ready to show event professionals how Sessionboard can simplify their workflows and unlock the full potential of their content.

Welcome to Sessionboard, Angie!
