The Exhibition Hall is where the stallholders will have their booths set up. You will be able to chat 1 on 1 with your stallholder through the live chat function and access all their key resources. During non-live days you will still be able to access everything that the booths have to offer including information and links, videos and presentations, stored documentation and contact information.

The Auditorium is where the presenters will be hosting their sessions. Please see agenda below. If you are unable to attend, you can view the presentations at any time after the live day event. During the live day presenters will also be hosting a live chat in their respective sessions, where there is opportunity for questions and answers.
Virtual Showbag
As you make your way around the Exhibition Hall, you will be able to collect information and media from stallholder booths and place this in your Virtual Showbag. When you are finished for the day, you can simply download and email the contents to yourself.
