Guidelines for Invited Speakers

Please find below some important and useful information for your presentation:

Presentation Slides

The first slide should be the title slide with your presentation title, your name and credentials, your institution or company and your city and country.

In compliance with CE/CPD requirements all speakers have to complete a conflict of interest form. Therefore, the second slide should disclose any Conflict of Interest. You can simply list the conflicts or write “Nothing to Disclose”. Note: You need to address the disclosure at the beginning of your presentation for at least 30 seconds to allow enough time for the audience to review and digest the information.

Presentation Upload

Please kindly note that you need to log in our system and click “Agenda Center” to upload presentation slides for each session. All presentations will be saved on a central server connected to the Session Halls, which are equipped with computers/beamers/microphones/handheld remote and supported by dedicated operators.

Less recommended: You may use your own laptop. In this case, you will need to ensure that it has a HDMI socket for the external signal, and you will need to advise one of the technicians in the Speakers’ Ready Room. It will also need to be tested in the session hall where your lecture is taking place, either during the coffee or lunch break before the session, and at least 30 minutes before the session starts.

Adding Video Films to a Presentation

Please upload videos separately in case the video clips in slides are lost or damaged;

If the PowerPoint presentation includes video clips, please make sure that you carry out a test with the technician in the Speakers’ Ready Room at least 2 hours before the start of the session or as soon as you arrive to the venue in the morning.
