1. A conference support apparatus comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
acquire, for each of a plurality of predetermined members, related information including an evaluation value representing association between a predefined word representing a classification of a conference and the corresponding predetermined member;
accept input of information regarding a conference to be held and a member selected from the plurality of the predetermined members as a potential participant of the conference to be held;
determine whether or not the member who is the potential participant is suitable as a conference participant of the conference to be held based on the acquired related information corresponding to the potential participant and the accepted input of the information regarding the conference to be held;
output a determination result; and
store, at the memory, at least the related information, wherein
the information regarding the conference to be held includes a conference name,
the evaluation value for each predefined word is weighted in accordance with whether or not the predefined word is included in a conference name of a conference in which the member has been input as a participant of a conference in the past, and
the instructions, when executed by the one or more processers, further cause the one or more processors to determine that the member who is the potential participant is unsuitable when the weighting of a word corresponding to the conference name of the conference to be held is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value.
