Plenary session
For the first half of the event, we will all be together in one room, focusing our attention on the podium.
After the welcome and introductory remarks, the buyers and sellers in the marketplace will come to the podium and quickly, in less than 4 minutes, explain what they are seeking. Any company can describe with words and with any supporting media what it has to sell, what it wishes to purchase or both.
Following the short pitches and for the time remaining before the lunch and demos break, we will conduct three panel discussions of approximately equal duration. The precise topic of panel discussions will reflect the requests/needs of the marketplace participants. Titles, invited speakers and any preparatory materials for the discussions will be made available to pre-qualified companies on or before February 10, 2011.
Lunch
A light buffet for all participants, courtesy of a marketplace sponsor, will be provided and during this period participants are encouraged to mingle and network. There will not be a formal demonstrations session, however, those who wish will have the time to show their content and what they have to sell.
Flash meetings
After the lunch break, during which the room configuration will be modified to accommodate small meetings, the participants will pick up their custom meeting schedule. The meeting schedule will provide the place (within the same room) of the Flash meeting and the names of those designated for that meeting. A map of the places, designated numerically, will help you to find your meetings.
A new flash meeting will begin every 15 minutes. In this fashion, everyone will participate in six meetings. During the final 15 minutes, participants will once again have the opportunity to network with one another.
Conclusion
During the final flash meeting/networking session, the seating will be returned to our plenary configuration for closing discussion.
