Audio Visual & Stage Set Up
There will be an AV desk and technician located at each theatre/stage/room to help upload your presentation and mic you up.
Each conference room will have a raised platform with a lectern and chairs for any panel discussions. On the platform there will be a lectern, fall back/slide monitor, remote clicker, or a variety of headset mics and handheld mics available to use for your presentation.
Should you require any further equipment please advise by completing the Speaker Requirements Form.
As the conference rooms are located on the expo floor, attendees will be wearing headphones. The attendees love them – it’s easy to hear the speakers and there are no distractions. There will be a speaker on stage so that panellists can hear each other. The Main Stage will not use headphones, this will have a standard PA system.
Upload your PowerPoint Presentation (16x9) here. If you would prefer to use your laptop and it is a MAC, you must bring all adaptors.

Content Guidelines
Ensure your content is unique and up to date and not taken from a presentation either previously given or going to be given at a similar event within three months.
Our attendees come to the conference seeking real, practical information, specific tips and best practice examples to help them make informed decisions and maximise their goals. Our aim is to send each and every conference delegate home, newly inspired and energised with actionable ideas and techniques to put to work right away.
We ask that there are no sales pitches or product pushes within your talk. By delivering a highly engaging, informative and educational talk, you gain credibility and leadership status within the community. This results in your brand being top-of-mind with not only the attendees, but also the media who consistently report on the speakers they find most interesting.
Onsite Contact
For any urgent matter during the days of the conference which affects your participation (e.g. running late, last minute speaker replacement, etc), please send a text message to Conference Producer, Chloe Davis on 0481 907 939.
