Where to go when you are onsite

We ask speakers to bring their presentation on a USB and visit the Speakers’ Preparation Room (M10) 3 hours before their scheduled presentation time to upload their slides. A technician will be present in the Speakers’ Preparation Room (M10) to assist. There will be a facility to test and modify your presentation if required. If you wish to have videos in your presentation, please embed them and let the AV Technician know. Attached is a PowerPoint slide template for your reference. While not mandatory, feel free to utilise it if you find it helpful.

Presentation Facilities

The room will consist of a laptop pre-loaded with your presentation and a clicker/laser pointer. The following items will also be available for speakers within each room: PowerPoint, windows-based PC, data projection facility, single screen, lectern, and lectern microphone. Speakers are requested to assemble in their session room 10 minutes before the commencement of their session (if possible), to meet with their session chair and to familiarise themselves with the room and the audio-visual equipment.

As the event draws near, we understand you will be planning/finalising your presentation.

To enable you to be prepared we advise that each room will be equipped with the following:

Data projector
Screen
Microphone
Lectern
Laser pointer
Laptop
Wi-Fi access (throughout the conference venue)

If you require anything additional to the above, please email your request to lucy@laevents.com.au and we will endeavor to meet your requests.

Preparing Your Presentation

Presentation slides should be in widescreen format (16:9).
You may use PPT or Prezi to prepare your presentation. A template PPT Slide will be made available if you wish to use this, however there is no requirement for you to do so.
You will need to bring your presentation with you on a USB and load this in the speaker’s preparation room (M10).
If you have audio and/or video in your presentation, please ensure you have the files saved separately as embedding the media does not always include them in the PowerPoint file.
This will allow the Technical Team to re-embed and/or change the format of the video onsite if needed.
If you are using custom fonts not found in the standard system fonts, please use the “Embed fonts in file” feature found in Save As/tools/save options. This will ensure that your fonts travel with the PowerPoint file when saved.
Please ensure contents of your presentation including photos, data, graphs etc. are generated by yourself, referenced or the appropriate owner has granted you permission to include their work for educational purposes.
You will be asked to sign a speaker release form allowing ICMM to make your presentation available on the ICMM congress website in PDF Format.
