New format
We have created a unique hybrid platform that will allow holding presentations, organising business meetings both offline and online. Even if you cannot attend the event in person, we will offer you online opportunities for making presentations at the forum. You will also be able to demonstrate your company’s projects, products and services at a virtual exhibition. You will also be able to connect with colleagues, make new contacts, participate in virtual networking events, and much more.
Our new web-based simultaneous translation system will help virtual and in-person participants seamlessly listen to simultaneous translation of presentations and ask presenters questions in real time.
We have developed our own mobile application to ensure seamless communications between the participants present at the forum in person and virtually. In the application, you will be able to access the list of participants, open personal chats, send meeting invitations, synchronise meetings to your personal calendar and hold meetings either on-site or in your personal virtual room.
