Speaker Registration Details

All speakers and moderators will be required to register and pay a significantly reduced fee to participate in the forum. The LGC will provide the necessary registration access codes directly to each confirmed speaker and moderator. Speakers and moderators MUST use the information that LGC provides to register for the conference through the online registration system.

Speakers will also be required to provide a brief biography and copy of their PowerPoint presentation (in pdf format) through the online registration system.

Speakers and moderators must register by August 5, 2016.

Sponsor Registration Details

Sponsoring organizations, agencies and companies may receive complimentary forum registration as part of their sponsorship benefits. The LGC’s main point of contact for each sponsoring organization will receive a unique access code. This main contact will be responsible for deciding who will be able to use their complimentary registration(s).

Those using complimentary sponsor registrations will need to use the online registration system. The access codes provided to each eligible sponsor are unique, limited based on level of sponsorship, and should not be shared with others. Sponsor codes do not cover costs for forum add-ons such as tours or workshops. Registrants using sponsor codes will still have the opportunity to add these activities within their registration, they will just need to provide payment information for the additional cost.
