When do I received my badge?

Your badge will be ready for you to collect from our  registration desk on arrival at the Conference.

If I’ve booked but can’t attend, can I send a substitute in my place?
Of course! Substitutions can be made at any time. We will need this in writing though so please email cilip@revolution-events.com with the name and job title of the new attendee. We also need to know if they have any dietary requirements.
Can I pay using a PO number?
Of course, when you register, please select ‘invoice’ as your payment method, then include the PO number on the form.
Can I book accommodation for extra nights?
You can indeed. Please book this directly with the hotel (as this will be outside our booking agreement with the hotel). If you would like to request to be in the same room throughout your stay you will need to notify the hotel when booking. You will also need to make sure that you have booked the same level of hotel room. Please also send your booking confirmation to eli@revolution-events.com so that we can request this from our side also.
Can I register my sessions choices?

Pre-registered attendees will be able to register for sessions ahead of the event. A personalised link will be emailed about 3 weeks prior to the event date. We encourage you to choose your sessions and plan your day to make the most out of the event.

Exhibition Area

The Exhibition Area will open at 9:00am on Day 1 and be open throughout both days of the event.

Are slides available after the event?
Unless the speaker has asked us not to share, you’ll be able to access all presentations once you’ve filled out your feedback form.
