As a speaker, do I get free access to the conference?
Speakers can attend the conference on 6 and 7 June 2007. Registration includes admission to the conference and exhibition, lunch, coffee, tea and refreshments during the two days. We would like to receive the special speaker registration form from all speakers and moderators. Registration for the Workshop on EFET Form Agreements on 5 June 2007 costs euro 750.

Does Synergy provide speaker honorariums?
Synergy is unable to provide speaker honorariums.

As a speaker, do I need to register myself for the conference?
Yes, you should register as a speaker and indicate if you plan to attend the day of your session only or the 2 day conference and, if applicable, the EFET workshop. Your badge will then be ready upon your arrival at the conference venue.

What audiovisual equipment will be available in the conference rooms?
In the conference rooms a laptop, LCD projector and a laser pointer will be available. If you have any special requests for additional audiovisual equipment please contact the conference management.

Can I use my own laptop for my presentation?
Yes, if desired, you can use your own laptop during your presentation. However, in order to stay on schedule and move efficiently from presenter to presenter, it would be better to load your presentation onto the conference laptop.

When will I be able to check my presentation?
Each speaker is urged to come to the conference room at least 30 minutes before the start of the session. This allows you to meet the chairman and other speakers, discuss last minute details and establish whether there is any overlap in the presentations. This will also be the last moment to load your presentation onto the laptop. You may either bring your presentation on a USD Memory Stick or a CD Rom.

How will the conference papers be made available to conference delegates?
All presentations will be published on the Internet during a limited period of time. Conference delegates receive a web link and password to access the papers. Papers will be available one week after the end of the conference.
