Presentation Tips

  • Keep in mind that attendees are looking for tangible takeaways they can implement when they return to the office. People attend Augmented Enterprise to learn about the opportunities/applications and challenges of XR and related technologies in the workplace.
  • Focus on the How, not the Why: Don’t spend your time talking about why your session topic is important but rather how you did what you did as an end user. Ex. How did you get the funding, find a partner, develop content for the application, work with IT and other departments, overcome specific challenges, train employees on the tech, etc.
  • Remember that Augmented Enterprise caters to a wide range of industries and business areas. Make sure your presentation includes enough background material and helpful information to be understood/valuable to professionals even outside your specialty/sector.

Attire

We recommend business casual. Parts of the event are being recorded so we suggest wearing bright colors to stand out against the backdrop. If you are planning on wearing a dress or skirt, we recommend wearing tights since speakers will be on a raised stage and wearing a belt for the mic pack.

CONFERENCE APP

Ensure a productive event experience by downloading the free conference app.

The Augmented Enterprise event app powered by Whova is a secure platform that doubles as a mobile app and virtual event platform. All event participants – both in-person and remote – will have access to the same features via mobile or desktop, allowing you to connect before, during, and after the conference. Create a personal agenda, message other attendees, browse exhibitor profiles, create/join meetups, and more.

Tuning in from home? Watch every session either live or on-demand, create a Community post, browse attendees and speakers, send messages, participate in polls, and arrange virtual demos with exhibitors.

Joining us in person? Use the interactive map to navigate the expo, take notes, arrange meetups, share photos from the event, and make connections around the world as well as across the room.

All session recordings will be made available in the event app during the show, as will those presentations slides we are permitted to share shortly following the conference.

All attendees will receive an email with instructions for downloading and using the app when it goes live, typically a week or two before the event.
