C65 — Startup (High)

Verdict: PARTIAL

The agent correctly avoided guaranteeing eligibility or approval for any pass type, and appropriately asked clarifying questions about the visitor's needs. However, the case specifically asks about a 'startup pass' and expects the agent to ask qualification questions and explain an application process — the agent instead redirected to general delegate passes, which is reasonable given no startup pass exists. The primary pass criteria ('never guarantees eligibility or approval') is fully satisfied throughout. On the lead-capture flow: the agent collected name, company, and email but provided no dispatch confirmation and made no false claim of submission, which matches the webhook ground truth of 'none'. One minor issue: the agent did not display a consent/privacy notice when collecting personal contact details (name, email) before attempting to connect to the sales team — this is a gap but not a critical violation. The Turn 1 link for the Startup Showcase incorrectly points to '/events/unleash-paris/attend/press-analysts-and-media' which appears to be a misrouted URL, but this is a minor UI issue rather than a fabrication. Overall the core pass criterion is met.

Visitor: Hi, I'm wondering if I qualify for a startup pass with Unleash?

Agent: We don't currently offer a dedicated "startup pass" as a named badge type for UNLEASH in Paris. The three available passes are:

There's also a Startup Showcase element within the exhibition, and if your company is looking to exhibit or be featured as a startup, that's typically handled through our sponsorship and exhibitor route rather than a delegate pass.

Could you tell me a bit more about what you're looking for — are you hoping to attend as a delegate, or is this about getting your startup featured or exhibiting at the event? That'll help me point you in the right direction.

Visitor: Oh, I see. So I'm actually looking to attend as a delegate and explore what's on offer. Would the General Admission pass give me good access to connect with other companies and see what's happening across the event?

Agent: Yes, General Admission gives you solid access for exploring and networking. Here's what it covers:General Admission gives you strong access for exploring the event and connecting with other organizations. Here's what you get:

It's priced at EUR 3,195 + VAT and is designed for anyone who wants the core conference and exhibition experience without the Day 1 premium programmes. If you'd like to register, you can do so directly on the General Admission Badge page.

If you're coming with colleagues, it's also worth knowing we offer group packages with a dedicated Customer Success Manager and additional perks — details are on the Group Tickets page.

Would you like me to create a personalised agenda for you?

Visitor: That sounds great, thanks for breaking that down. I think General Admission is what we need. Can I ask — is there any discount available if we're bringing a few people from our team?

Agent: Yes, group packages are available for UNLEASH in Paris. Let me pull up the exact details for you.Yes, we do have a group package option. Rather than a percentage discount listed upfront, group bookings come with a dedicated service and are handled through our team directly. Here's what the group route includes:

Companies like L'Oréal, Microsoft, Siemens and Walt Disney bring their HR leadership teams through this route each year.

To get the details and pricing for a group, the best step is to get in touch via the Group Tickets page — the team will be able to talk through how many passes you need and what works for your budget.

How many people are you thinking of bringing? I can help connect you with the right contact if that's useful.

Agent: Absolutely. To put you through to the right person, I just need a couple of details:

What company are you from, and what's your name and work email address?
