I agree the ballroom is the ideal space, but we don't actually have the it booked. From what I can see, the only rooms that might work that are already booked are the auditorium, but those seats are nailed down, and Parkside 110A. There is the option of using the foyers, but they will be cluttered with exhibition stands.<br>
<br>
As a side note, exhibitioners are not likely to be hanging around until 8pm. If their stands are in a foyer, they won't be able to lock anything in them. Are there any facilities for them to lock up stuff, or will they just take it away with them 5pm (or whenever the exhibition closes)?<br>
<br>
Another side note, we have Hall 6 flagged as waitlisted. Is this still the case, and if so what are we hoping to put there?<br>

Hi Simon,<br>
<br>
Can we please block out 5.30 - 8.00 pm for Ignite, to give us an hour of networking time before the presentations start?<br>
<br>
The networking is an important component of Ignite, and ideally we'll do it in the same room as the presentations, so we can just start the presentations without needing people to file into the room.<br>
<br>
I'll need access to the room from 4.30pm to set it up - I like to have everything ready to go as soon as people start arriving at 530pm.<br>
<br>
Ballroom A looks perfect based on the 360 degree tour as it already has a stage set up, and the room can be resized depending on how many people we get - this will allow us to be a bit flexible. It's good for the room to feel a bit full without being cramped, and not so large that it feels empty.<br>
<br>
Will Ballroom A be available from 4.30pm?<br>
<br>
Whichever room we use, I'd like to have a mixture of seating and standing, with a few rows of seats theatre-style but the majority of people standing. I'll need a projector and PA system, power for the laptops, etc, but other than that there are no special requirements.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Steve<br>

As discussed last week I've slated in Ignite into the program - find<br>
below the link to the program online:<br>

<br>
I'm unsure of what part of the SCEC would prove best for Ignite?<br>
You'll see from the program what rooms we have allocated + we have<br>
the parkside foyer which is allocated to the exhibition. More info<br>
on the rooms can be found here:<br>
<br>

<br>
Perhaps you could take a look and let us know what space would suit<br>
best and what other requirements are needed i.e. projectors,<br>
furniture, power etc etc<br>
<br>
The program has also been update to take account of the 8pm<br>
conference centre closing time<br>
