| Nutshell Presentation |
FIVE-minute plenary session presentation slot |
We are aware that many often like the option of being able to tweak their ppt presentation right up to the last minute. At an event like this, for example, you may change the thrust of your remarks in response to something you have learned from a Tech Seeker's comments. Therefore, for pre-session load onto a Master computer we provide you the option of
• EITHER emailing your presentation to us in advance
• AND/OR you may bring your (updated) presentation to the Event on a USB stick or equivalent
If you exercise the latter option, you MUST have provided event staff your presentation not less than TWO hours before the start of your Nutshell set. |

| Poster Exhibits (or equivalent): |
Click here for more information |
Immediately AFTER every set of Nutshells all those involved will retire to a different room to stand by their Posters. Interested Novartis personnel will meet them there. Additionally, all the Posters will be on view and accessible over the full period of the event. For the purpose, all SBIR participants will be allocated a Poster-sized exhibit space to include, on a limited basis, flip charts which can be used to make your point.
Each firm will be responsible for bringing their own Posters, any exhibit and support materials to and from the event site. On a very limited basis and preferably on request, we will have on site various things you might need - thumb tacks, scotch tape etc
