Presentation Information & Template

Deadlines for Enterprise Connect Presentations:

Workshop & Conference Presentations are due March 5th.

If you are a panelist and not sure if you need a presentation, please contact Jon Osing.

Content

Be sure to answer the session questions. These questions were included in your invitation email and can also be viewed HERE. Your presentation should address each question that applies to you or your organization. Please devote 1–2 slides to each question.

These are technical sessions and the typical attendee has a very high level of understanding. We appreciate your effort to remain objective. All sales pitches will be removed from your presentation. Do not reference your company’s specific products.

Editing and Production Process

Your presentation content will be reviewed. If we find significant changes must be made, your presentation will be sent back to you to be revised.

You will not be able to bring your laptop onstage. Your presentation will be preloaded on computers provided by show management. We will not be able to make any changes to the presentation after it is submitted. Failure to submit a presentation by the due date may jeopardize your participation in the program.

Enterprise Connect Presentation Template:

Download the Enterprise Connect Presentation Template and the Enterprise Connect Logo. While not required, we encourage you to use the template at least for your title slide and include the following information:

• Use a dark background with light fonts
• All fonts should be 20pts or larger
• Your title slide should contain your contact information
• Use animation, graphics and before or after charts
• Number your slides

Submit Your Presentation:

Once you have your final presentation ready to submit, please follow these steps:

Name your file with the format of LastName-SessionTitle.ppt (PowerPoint files only!). Feel free to use only the first two or three words for your session title or abbreviating where necessary.

Example: Osing-Managingyourvirtualenvironment.ppt

If your presentation is a large file, please compress it into a .zip file.

Email your presentation to toqalo38@techweb.backpackit.com.

If you encounter any issues please contact Jon Osing.

Please Note:

• No changes or updates will be allowed after the presentations deadline or on-site at the conference.
