- Depending on what type of session it is there will be two options for viewing or joining the session:
- Plenary sessions: All plenary sessions will be streamed directly on the platform. The livestream does not require a zoom-client to view, you simply watch the livestream directly in the Virtual Venue in your browser. We also invite you to use the chat function that you will find for each plenary session. In this way, you can not only exchange information among yourselves, but also have the opportunity to communicate your questions and suggestions about the respective event to the speakers, so that they can respond to them
- Parallel sessions: Zoom-client – clicking on the blue link will open your Zoom-client and give you direct access to the meeting taking place. If you are a chair or presenter, the technical moderator will give you co-host privileges so that you may share your screen to the participants. For parallel sessions you will have the opportunity to ask questions directly in the Zoom-client using the built-in chat feature of Zoom. It is important that your zoom screen name is the same as the name you registered to the conference with. Click here for details on how to change your screen name in zoom.
