During event

  • bring your own water bottle. Water coolers will be available at the venue and tea and coffee will be supplied during break times 
  • remember to mute your mobile phone during meetings
  • use the first couple of minutes of the meeting to introduce yourself, your business, and your clientele, and then allow 3-4 minutes at the end of the meeting to summarise the discussion and next steps
