Frequently asked questions

COVID-19 MEASURES TAKEN 

1. What are the measures taken during the COVID-19?

As an event organizer, we are witnessing the devastating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the event industry. We are in the process of reorganizing the program and searching for suitable new dates for our upcoming conferences. Like in the previous years, we will be able to provide highly attractive programs for our attendees, and in the meantime, we are delighted to present you with a series of Live Events.

Upon receiving the speakers' final reconfirmation, we will be publishing the details of newly planned or postponed conferences on our website.   Just like the rest of the world, we must adjust. We are taking all precautionary measures to ensure the safety of all. Please note that we will not distribute any printed or branded material (pens, notepads...) at our events. We will provide you with the digital version of the conference materials in advance and kindly ask you to print them by yourself. 

2. How many participants are you expecting?

We are limiting all our conferences to a maximum of one hundred people, adopting a new seating arrangement, for safer activity enjoyment meeting the social distancing measures.   

3. What are the hygiene measures taken?  

A hand disinfection booth will be available for all participants. Prior to the conference start, everyone is required to clean their hands before entering the conference room. Apart from providing sanitation services, we will give away free masks.    

Conference rooms will be disinfected daily. The on-site cleaning crew will decontaminate doors, equipment, and high-contact surfaces.   

When passing the microphone during an interactive session, the physical contact will be limited to a minimum. An attendee can post a question or comment using the event hashtag. It will be allowed to send questions to the speaker's screen using your phones without risking anyone's health.   

4. Are you expecting participants from countries outside the event location?   

Yes, we receive a lot of interest from delegates from different countries. Their participation depends on their authorities' recommendations and restrictions.   

5. Is there a possibility to withdraw from the registration for the event free of charge if we postpone it or delegate cannot attend the event?   

In case of the summit cancelation due to the spread of the coronavirus epidemic, we will initiate a full refund.

If we change the summit from an indoor to a virtual format, we will refund your full registration fee.

If you aren’t able to attend the conference you registered for, you will be provided with a recording version of this event and a free pass for the next edition of the conference.   

6. Is it possible to attend the event remotely?   

Yes. A recording will be available after the conference. You will also receive all the materials and presentations from the speakers.

7. What do networking opportunities entail?

Networking is essential to all aspects of our summits. Some exclusive networking opportunities include interactive breaks, a business lunch, and a business dinner. Our most exciting networking opportunity is our ‘Speed Networking’ break. ‘Speed Networking’ is an innovative approach to maximizing networking opportunities through two-minute periods; where delegates can meet their peers and exchange business cards before rotating to the next company representative.

8. How do you facilitate the ‘Speed Networking’ session?

The ‘Speed Networking’ session works by dividing the group into two lines facing each other. Everyone will have two minutes to introduce themselves (stating name, job position, company, what they would like to get out of the summit, and etc.) to the person across from them. Then attendees will be asked to move on to the next person. The idea is to facilitate the initial meeting of attendees. Further discussions and idea-sharing can continue throughout coffee breaks, lunch, and dinner time.

9. Can I only attend a summit for one day?

Although we do recommend attendance for the entire two days to gain the full experience, we realize life has other demands. Please contact register@vonlanthenevents.com for a discounted rate.

10. Can I split the 2nd-day summit with a colleague?
