PRESENTATION FORMATS

Individual Presentations – 20-MINUTES

Individual talks are 20-minute presentations explaining recent innovations, research & findings. These individual talks will each be followed by a 5-minute Q&A & grouped together by topic.

Panel Discussion – 40-MINUTES

Panel discussions provide an analysis of broad industry trends from a variety of perspectives. These discussions will begin with the moderator providing an overview of the topic, then each panellist will give a short introduction to themselves & their area of topic expertise. The moderator will then move to open discussion with prepared questions & open questions from the attendees. If you propose a panel discussion, be prepared to serve as moderator & invite speakers from around the industry. A list of prospective speakers or speaker companies should be included in the proposal.

In general, we look for speakers who are willing to share their knowledge to help design & innovation continue & grow. Proposals that aim to market a specific company or product will not be considered.
