Your Session

Session Timing and Notes

All sessions are scheduled for 1 hour. Below is a guideline for your session, but feel free to change up the flow if needed.

• 10 minutes prior to session:  Start setting up; prepare and test technology with MISBO staff
• 40-45 minutes:  Your presentation
• 5-10 minutes:  Discussion and Q&A
  • Please prepare a few discussion questions for the audience just in case
• We encourage you to end a few minutes early so attendees have extra time to ask questions, discuss with their colleagues, or speak with sponsors before the next session

Download any videos for your presentation ahead of time, rather than using the internet. It is best not to rely on internet during your presentation.
