Delegates can expect the same high quality content and networking as at a physical event.
Once you register your ticket, you will receive a link prior to the event to:
• Create your delegate profile
• Create your personal schedule for the event complete with meetings and conference sessions.
Over the course of the day, delegates can network with speakers and delegates alike before, during and after each session. Participants joining live conference sessions will be able to engage with presenters through interactive activities during the session, as well as through 1-to-1 and group calls and chats.
Participants will attend via Swapcard who provides simple access via web browser, tablet or phone. Discover Swapcard’s virtual event features in 90 seconds!
