Notes for Speakers
Program Formats
Arena Talk Format
The audience will be seated in a circular arrangement around a stage of approximately 5 x 5 meters. Your presentation will be displayed on a cube screen suspended above the stage.
Social Media Stage
On this stage, the presentation will be broadcast via a live video stream. The recording will also be available on YouTube afterwards. A small audience can follow the presentation through silent-disco headphones.
Event Stage
This stage will primarily be available for live demonstrations and competitions.
Standard Stage
All presentations in Halls 1-9 will be held in the traditional format of a lecture with a lectern.
Timing and Discussion Format
We would like to point out a few important aspects regarding the design and structure of the sessions:
- For the 90-minute sessions, 10 minutes must be reserved for discussion and 5 minutes for introduction and closing remarks, leaving 75 minutes of effective presentation time.
- For the 60-minute sessions, 5 minutes should be allocated for discussion and 5 minutes for moderation, resulting in 50 minutes of effective presentation time.
Please make sure to strictly adhere to these time limits to ensure a smooth program flow! Post-sessions Q&As will not take place in the lecture hall itself, but in a designated area („Discussion Zone“) within the conference center.
Presentation File Submission
- Please deliver your PowerPoint file at least 1 hour before your session at the designated Speaker Ready Room.
- Files must be provided on a USB stick or can be uploaded prior the conference (information will follow in May 2026).
Registration and Travel
- Please note that speakers giving only one presentation are not eligible for complimentary registration or reimbursement of travel expenses.
