Computer projection is available. A single computerized system will manage all projections and will send the presentations to the assigned room automatically. This method guarantees an easier management, a higher quality of projection and a quicker and smoother running of the presentations.

In the Slide Preview Area, a technician assists the speaker to transfer his or her

performs a quick run of the presentation with the speaker to check whether the
presentation runs correctly and all parts of the presentation are copied.
A computer will be available at the Slide Preview Area for last minute changes and
reviewing your presentation.
No more changes can be made inside the session room where the session takes place.
In the room, a technical assistant starts each presentation at the right time using the
computer connected to the central congress network. When the presentation is
launched, the speaker has control and can navigate with a remote device.
