UID sounds like User ID. While it is a Unique ID, the property of an
"identifier" is generally that it identifies a unique thing, so the 'U'
is redundant, and GUID as a globally unique id (which is likely also
true for these IDs) has a specific meaning and syntax, so we're not using
that. So, we just say conference id.
