Poster guidelines
Participants will be responsible for printing their own posters.
The poster boards will be approximately 245cm high and 90cm wide. The posters should comfortably fit onto the boards in portrait style. Oversize posters will unfortunately not be accommodated. Either A0 or A1 can be printed (portrait style not landscape).
Poster exhibitors are requested to make A4 copies of their posters (suggested 10 copies at least) as well as their business cards available as handouts for delegates. Poster adhesive as well as a ‘plastic sleeve holder’ for the copies will be supplied by the organisers for each poster.
