DISCUSSION TABLE
How do discussion tables work?
This year we are offering the opportunity to our attendees for network and knowledge exchange at a discussion table format!
Here's how it works:
1
Initial Setup
The room is arranged with 3 presenters, each positioned in front of 3 round tables.
Each table seats 10 participants, so each presenter will engage with 30 people (for a total of 90 participants).

Presenter 2

Due to limited seating, the room will close once capacity is reached.
-
All attendees are expected to remain for the entire session, which lasts XX minutes.
2
First Round of Presentation and Discussion
All 3 presenters will begin their 5-minute presentations simultaneously, each addressing their group of 30 participants (spread across 3 tables).

After the presentations, attendees will discuss the topic at their table.
-
During the discussion period, presenters are free to move between their three tables, joining conversations as they wish to provide input and engage with participants.
3
Rotation and Shuffling
When time is up, participants move to a new table. Groups do not need to stay together - attendees shuffle randomly to one of the other presenters’ tables, creating new discussion groups.

Presenters remain at their original tables.
-
While some attendees may end up with familiar faces, we encourage everyone to sit with different people for a fresh perspective.
4
Continuing the Cycle
-
Once everyone is seated, the presenters start their next 5-minute presentations for the new audience.
-
Each table now has a fresh mix of participants who have not yet heard that presenter’s topic.
-
This cycle repeats until all participants have attended all three presentations.
