Speaker’s check-in

Prior to your presentation you should visit the speaker’s check-in: From here your final presentation will be relayed directly to the conference room.

First-class presentation technology

The World of Photonics Congress offers all speakers an excellent presentation management system: This software distributes and relays all lectures onto the laptops in the conference rooms and displays the overview of the ongoing program on the information screens inside and outside the rooms. As such, you and your presentation can be found quickly and easily.

Each conference room used for World of Photonics Congress sessions is equipped with the complete presentation equipment—that means beamer / screen, laptop and presenter.

From spring 2025 you will find here all important information about:

  • Upload service in advance
  • Upload service onsite / Opening times of the speaker’s check-in
