Here’s how Roundtables work at Alt Summit:
Roundtables each feature a presenter at a table (it’s round, of course!), ready to share their knowledge on a specific topic. There are two roundtable sessions that each last 55 minutes and happen during the afternoon of the conference. The 2:00pm roundtable session will feature 12 Roundtable Leaders presenting on 12 different topics. The 3:00pm roundtable session will feature another group of 12 Roundtable leaders presenting on 12 different topics. That makes 24 different Roundtables total, with 24 different topics.
During each session, the time is split into two 25-minute halves (with a 5-min break between), and it works like this: Attendees come to a presenter’s table, the presenter talks for 15-20 minutes, and then discusses things with their roundtable attendees for another 5-10 minutes. At the 25 minute mark, attendees choose another table, and presenters will start again with a new group.
If you’re doing the math, that means if an attendees decides to attend both Roundtable Sessions, they will get to choose 4 different roundtables, and learn about 4 different topics. It’s a one-day conference, but we promise to fill it with as much learning and inspiration as possible.
Alright, let’s get pitching!
