Data Presentation:



production team is using Preseria to collect all presentation files.

The room you will be speaking in will be fully equipped for your presentation, but we do insist that your presentation is run from the production-provided laptops/equipment. For that reason, no personal laptops may be used for presentations.

Presentations should be formatted for standard screen (16:9). All presentations must be in a PowerPoint (.pptx file).

PowerPoint Template

In PowerPoint, please save your file as a .pptx. Do not use .ppt, .pps, or other formats, as this will affect your file’s ability to open correctly. Also please make sure that your file does not have automatic slide advance timings.

If you have media/video as part of your slides, please also upload a separate copy of just the media file. mp4 format is preferred.
