Featured Breakout Sessions
Our tech socials connect people in a comfortable, relaxed manner—group conversations are aplenty at our in-person events. Online, the breakout sessions are small, group video chat rooms that emulate this where up to 10 people can be live on-camera at a time while anyone can join to listen in and contribute via the chat window. Join the breakouts in the first half-hour as it features lighting fast SuperConnect rounds to start sessions on the most popular and compelling topics. If you miss it, don’t worry, pop into the central breakout and see what’s hot!
Online Event Tips
- Check that your event profile image and content is updated the way you like (also, test your links).
- Test your mic and speakers (support page) so your entrance is seamless.
- Close extra windows, a lean running machine speeds things up.
- Have bright lighting so your face is lit and you’re not lurking in shadows.
- Tidy up—a clean, uncluttered background means fewer distractions.
