Interaction: be part of the discussionThe interaction button of the conference app links you directly to the chairmen of the session. Questions can be raised, liked and after selection by the chairmen brought forward by the moderator of the interactive session. The moderator can also project questions and the audience will be able to respond to the questions. The feature will be enabled during the keynote and main sessions.

Tutorial: exclusive early experience open for allHow to do, What to do! 16 opportunities affecting your practice. Not to be missed.

Keynotes: the comprehensive overviewThe main topics are introduced by a keynote lecture. The 40 lectures allow to gain a comprehensive overview and they will update your knowledge over the entire area. Question sent through the interactive App will be discussed during the subsequent main session.

Main interactive sessions: experts at hand After the keynote lectures 56 main sessions on related topics are programmed in one of the main conference halls during which an expert discussion takes place. The interactive system functions in the following Conference Halls: Queen Elisabeth Hall 1800 p; Marble Hall 350p, Okapi Hall 350p, Darwin Hall 280p, Gorilla 1 hall 170p and Gorilla 3 Hall 70p.
