Global Wildlife Fair
Global Wildlife Fair (GWF) is a complete digital platform built for one of India’s wildlife and conservation fairs. It combines a mobile app and an admin panel that run the fair from planning to the event itself, and keeps its community connected all year through the International Wildlife Network.
For visitors, the Fair App puts the whole event in one place. They can browse events, sessions, speakers, exhibitors, NGOs and sponsors, and find their way with the venue map. They can save favourites, build a personal calendar and book sessions, and their QR pass handles check-in. Attendees can book B2B meetings with exhibitors and network with each other. They can also apply to be a speaker, NGO or exhibitor, enter the wildlife photo contest, join live charity auctions, donate, volunteer or become a member.
The International Wildlife Network (IWN) is a community space for conservationists, photographers, researchers, NGOs and wildlife lovers that stays open beyond the fair dates. Members can follow communities by topic or region, post updates, photos and questions, and discuss them. They can find or host meetups, browse and post conservation jobs, and use a dedicated area for marketplace listings and news. Anyone can apply to start a community, and the admin team reviews each application before it goes live.
For organisers, the admin panel is the control centre. It’s used to create, approve and publish events, speakers, exhibitors, NGOs and sponsors, and to moderate community applications, posts and meetups. The team can update the app’s home screen, banners and announcements without releasing a new version of the app. The panel also handles payments, refunds, users and roles, and gives exhibitors lead and booth analytics with exportable reports.
The platform has a Flutter mobile app and a Vue admin panel, running on a Node.js and MongoDB backend that is split into separate services for auth, content, events, partners, payments, notifications and community. GWF brings visitors, exhibitors, NGOs and organisers together on one platform, from planning the fair to the community that continues after it.
