Poster & demo session

Project representatives are encouraged to prepare an interactive demo in relation with their project. The demos will all be presented in the same room and in parallel. Power supply and desks will be available, but delegates need to bring their own hardware (laptops, data storage, etc.).

Projects that are not ready to present a demo can bring a poster (A0, portrait format) instead, which will be displayed in the room where the demo session takes place. A poster accompanying a demo is welcome as well.
