Our first online World Conference has happened!

26 May 2021

Well, our first online World Conference has happened! We broadcast live to over 800 participants in 67 countries over three days; we hosted 99 speakers, accepted 249 abstracts, and shared 150 ePosters.   The feedback from delegates has been extremely positive and whilst many yearn for the chance to meet again, they thoroughly enjoyed the programme and speakers. 

Thank you to all speakers for going the extra mile to rehearse, to prepare their presentations in advance and to find a way to being online at the right time no matter the thunderstorms and breaks in connection; thanks to delegates for staying really engaged and using Slido and Twitter, and particular thanks to those who stayed up late or woke early to manage the time zone challenges. And of course, many thanks to the Scientific Programme Committee, the Eventage team and Webcast Squared for all their input in the background.
