Please note: the agenda is updated regularly, so we recommend checking your session time before arriving in case any minor program changes have been made.

Arrival & Registration
When you arrive, please head to the registration desk to collect your complimentary speaker pass. We recommend arriving 20–30 minutes before your session so you have plenty of time to settle in and have a coffee. Speaker passes are non-transferable, and speaker referral discounts are available if you have colleagues who would like to attend.

Keynote Speaker
For your presentation, please provide your slides prior to the event (12th October) in PowerPoint 16:9 format so the team can prepare everything smoothly before your session.

Quest staff will be onsite from 7:30am, with registration opening at 8:15am and the event commencing at 8:50am. Please meet with the Producer when you arrive, and they will provide your chairperson pack and help you get settled. A lectern and microphone will be available. Please advise the operations team if you would prefer to have a lapel.
Timecards will be provided, if needed, to alert speakers during their sessions allowing them to keep time. We do ask to leave five minutes for Q&A from the audience unless otherwise advised.
Panelist Details
Panel Speaker
Your moderator will be in touch before the event to help coordinate the panel discussion. Handheld microphones and panel seating will be provided, and we recommend being in the room 5–10 minutes before your session so you have time to get settled with the group.
Moderator Details
Panel Moderator
Panel Moderators will be provided with the details of the panels prior to the event, so there is time to prepare for a great discussion.
A lectern and microphone will be available, and handheld or lapel microphones can be arranged on request if needed. Panelists will be seated on panel chairs with hand held microphones. The Chairperson will introduce the moderator and topic and from here you will lead the discussion/opening. There are no slides to prepare.
Facilitator Details
Roundtable Facilitator
Roundtables are informal, facilitator-led discussions, where delegates rotate 3 times between groups during the 90-minute session. At the end of each 30 mins, a bell or music will sound to signify to attendees to switch groups. We recommend preparing a few opening points to guide the first 10–15 minutes before opening the conversation to the group.
There are no slides to provide for Roundtables.
Assistants & Communications Team
Support staff must be registered prior to the event. Please contact your event manager with the details.
