Requirements for slides:
- Please make sure your first name and last name is in the filename:
eg: Braintech-2025-Firstname-Lastname.pptx - Append any versions (V1, V2, etc – the higher the number, the more recent it is) or date your files (YYMMDD) at the end.

Examples of acceptable presentation formats
Microsoft PowerPoint (preferred); Apple Keynote; Adobe Acrobat PDF; Google Slides; Canva.
Videos
If you’d like to include videos in your presentation, please embed them in MP4 (or equivalent) format and also save them as a separate file for backup. This ensures smooth playback on the day. Note: online video platforms (e.g. YouTube, Vimeo) won’t be supported, so having your files ready will help everything run seamlessly.
If you have specific AV requirements, such as sound, internet connection, etc, please advise Slatterys before By COB Friday 26 September 2025: so we have sufficient time to make sure we can organise this for you.
You are welcome to bring physical props, but please let us know what you will bring before the day if you need to place anything on attendee seats.
Slide decks will be shared with attendees after the event unless you flag with us that you’d prefer not to.
On the Day
All speaker presentations will be loaded onto a central laptop (located at the lectern) – and will be displayed on a screen behind the speaker. Speakers will be able to control their own presentation using a wireless remote mouse (clicker) that is easy to use and fits in the palm of your hand. There will be a lectern on the stage. Speakers will be able to use the lectern microphone or a lapel or hand held microphone.
All speakers are asked to keep to their allocated time to ensure the event runs on time. There will be a timer on the lectern for you to use, and the Slatts team will give you a sign from the back of the room when you need to wrap up (as well as any other timing cues you would like along the way).
Please remember to return your lapel microphone (if you use one) and clicker to the AV desk at the end of your session.
