POSTER PRESENTATIONS

​

• Posters should be A0 portrait layout (1189mm high x 841mm wide). 

• The poster display boards are Velcro-compatible and Velcro fixers will be provided to all poster presenters at the conference.

• Conference attendees will be able to contact each other and ask questions of both poster and oral presenters via the conference app.

​

LIGHTNING TALKS​

​

• If your presentation is accepted as a Lightning talk you will have up to 5 minutes to present, with no questions. 

• ​Presenters can use no slides at all, or as many presentation slides as they deem necessary, however the 5 min time limit will be strictly adhered to.

• Lightning talks should concentrate on a specific idea, problem, or key takeaway. 

• The goal is to keep it short, hit a key message, engage the audience and encourage further discussion after the session.
