PREPARING FOR A LIVE Q&A SESSION

In order to prepare for your LIVE Q&A session, you will be asked to prepare a pre-recorded presentation and to join a rehearsal session closer to the Congress dates.
Please read the step-by-step instructions on preparing the pre-recording and booking the rehearsal session you received by e-mail.
Here is a short video on how to prepare for your session.



JOINING THE LIVE Q&A SESSION
Speakers are requested to join and create a meaningful dialogue.
  • Speakers and Moderators will receive a link to enter the live Q&A section from a few days before the planned session.
  • Please be ready to enter the live Q&A 20 minutes in advance of the official start of the Q&A in order for your internet speed and other technical issues to be checked and resolved by a technician.
  • You may check your internet speed by performing an Internet speed test online: https://www.speedtest.net/. Your upload speed should ideally be equal to or higher than 8Mbps in order to avoid slow-speed issues.
  • There will be a technician in the virtual room with you to assist you and to guide you if you have any queries.
  • Moderators – for the live section of the session, we kindly request that you ensure to end the Q&A on time. Please note that if the session runs over time unfortunately, we will need to stop the session.
  • Participants will be able to ask questions to the speakers via the chat option whilst they view the lectures. These will be written questions only. The moderator’s role will be to decide which questions will be discussed.
