Information for Presenters

Speakers are requested to bring their presentation on a USB in .pdf or .ppt format and hand it to the venue technician based in speaker preview room no later than the break preceding your session. The technician will load, validate and distribute the presentation to the appropriate lecture theatre via the computer network. To optimise compatibility, particularly for the inclusion of multimedia components, speakers should include the original files so that it can be re-embedded if necessary.

The speaker preview room will be the Ness Room (M2) and will be available during the following times:

Speakers should arrive at the meeting room at least 10 minutes before the session commences to meet the chairperson. Technicians will be available in each lecture theatre to support speakers.

The electrical current in the UK is 230v AC and 3 pin plug sockets. If you need an adapter, please bring one with you.

Direct connection of personal laptops (with set up in the break prior to the corresponding session) is an acceptable, but not preferred alternative, and must be agreed with the stage technician in advance. Mac users should ensure that they bring the correct connection cable (VGA) with them.
