At the Meeting: When you Arrive
When you Arrive
- Turn in your final paper to the ION registration desk.
- Test
your presentation on the ION computer located near the registration
desk. Presentation files display in various ways on different
computers. ION provides a “test” computer so you can check fonts,
graphics and multimedia content. Test your presentation before you
find yourself standing in front of dozens of industry colleagues!
- If
using your own laptop, test your laptop with the ION projector located
near the registration desk. You may use your laptop with ION’s
projector. To avoid surprises during your session, test your laptop
with ION’s projector one day prior to your presentation. The test
projector will allow you to test your cables, drivers, settings and
necessary keystrokes.
On the Day of your Presentation
- Check
in with your session chair at the Speakers Breakfast (held on the
morning of your presentation). Attending the Speakers Breakfast is
required to preserve your scheduled presentation time. If you do not
attend the Speakers Breakfast, your presentation time will be assigned
to another author. If you are unable to attend the breakfast, contact
your session chair or Miriam Lewis (meetings@ion.org) as soon as possible. If your paper has been
accepted as an alternate, you will find out if you can present at the
speakers breakfast.
- Copy your presentation to the “desktop” of
the computer in your session room before the session begins. Copying
your files onto the computer before the session begins allows for a
smooth, fast transition between presentations.
