FAQs

Can I present remotely?
Speakers are expected to present in person. An exception may apply to speakers who are not able to attend personally and cannot find a substitute.
What are my options if I am not able to present in-person or remotely?
If the speaker is not able to travel to present at the Forum, the programming committee might allow them to play the video recording of the presentation during the Forum.
How can I register a substitute speaker?
A substitute speaker is expected to submit new speaker application form.
Why do I need to pay as speaker?
We don't have deep pockets and don't have other financial sources (e.g. gold mine or two). It costs a lot of money to organise events. The Forum is mostly funded by fees from commercial profit-driven organisations. We consider it fair to expect that companies presenting their projects, services or products should pay the "advertising" fee in addition to the Forum admission fees. Speakers presenting non-commercial talk on behalf of profit-driven organisations are charged admission fees only.
I am presenting a non-commercial talk or taking part in a panel discussion. Do I still have pay?
Unless agreed otherwise or in cases when speakers are representing on behalf of a sponsor or a partner of the Forum, they are expected to pay an admission fee to attend the Forum and other sessions (they are not presenting on), as well as lunches and networking events.
Are you able to cover my expenses?
The Forum Secretariat cannot reimburse travel, accommodation or other expenses incurred by presenters.
