The event will be open from 1000 and will remain open until 1700 on 5th October. Please note that all content will be available on demand for 30 days after the event.
No, the event is completely flexible so you can attend for as long as you like. You can also leave the event and return later in the day if there are any specific presentations you want to watch.
The event will have as many features as a live event. You can access the speaker presentations in the auditorium and visit each university stand in the exhibition halls. You will also be able to take part in Q&A during/after speaker sessions and join in chat in the chat rooms. And you can add content to your swag bag and email it to yourself so you can access it any time.
You can either search in the ‘search booth’ box at the top of the page (type in the name of the booth you want to visit), or you can use the keywords search on the right-hand side of the main navigation bar to search by sector/keyword.
Visit the Exhibition Hall and click into the appropriate stands. If you click the Chat button this will allow you to chat with the booth representatives. The platform is easy to navigate around but if you have any questions just head to the info desk.
All content will remain on the site for 30 days, allowing registered delegates the opportunity to revisit on a different day and still be able to access all the presentations and exhibition stands.
