\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>

Timings<\/span><\/b><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>

Unless special arrangements have been agreed, your speaking slot would be for 10 minutes of presentation + 5 minutes of Q&A and facilitated discussion. 10 minutes ought to be long enough for you to get your key message across; it is important that we run to time and allow sufficient time for audience response, participation and engagement, so please be sure to not exceed 10 minutes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

We suggest you please approach your presentation as if you were delivering a TED Talk, i.e. strip out anything superfluous, focus on your key message and make your main points as impactfully as you can. As an aide to creating focus, perhaps consider what you want your audience to think, feel or do differently as a consequence of your talk.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Please let us know straight away if there are any times you will not be able to present so we can create the programme and the running order of the speakers accordingly.<\/span><\/p>
