If you have any concerns, please contact a member of conference staff immediately. Conference staff can be identified as they’ll be wearing branded clothing and/or badges. If a participant engages in unacceptable behaviour, the conference organisers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or expelling them from the conference with no refund.

We value your attendance.
