Presentation Formatting
We recommend all presentation slides follow the below formatting guidelines
- 16:9 Ratio (widescreen)
- Font size 20+ (Font smaller than this may be too small for the audience to view)
- 1 graph/table per slide
- Clear and concise background
- Visual aids to capture the attention of the audience
- If including videos in your presentation, please also bring the video file as a back up for our AV Team
Presentation Types
There are various ways you may be participating as an in person speaker:
- Presentation followed by Q&A
- Panelist
- Roundtable Moderator
- Workshop Leader

Polling
- Check with your Event Manager if Live Polling is available at your Event
- If so, it is possible to include multiple choice, word cloud, or open text polls which the audience use their smartphones to vote on.
- Real time results can be shown on screen or within your slide show
- Results can also be collected and distributed to all participants post-conference should you wish
Live Q&A
- Typically, there will be time allocated for Q&A either directly after your session or in the form of a group panel (please check the agenda or enquire with your Event Manager for further details)
- Questions will be submitted by the audience either by their smartphone or live in the room
- A moderator or chairperson will be available to coordinate the Q&A session
