How long is the ideal presentation?
You are allocated a 25-minute slot in which to present, but your presentation itself should be no longer than 20 minutes. We would suggest aiming for around 18–20 minutes. This will allow ample time for directly engaging with the audience through discussion and questions. There is no perfect number of slides for a Power Point presentation, but the concept ‘less is more’ applies here. We suggest approximately 10–15 slides for a 20-minute presentation.
Do you want to publish the conference proceedings?
Conference proceedings from the first and second editions of our conference was published by De Gruyter Publishing House. We are preparing the publication of materials from the 3rd edition of the conference. The conference papers from the current edition will be also published by a renowned scientific publishing house at the end of the 2026.
