We all value good information presented in an interesting way. Forums are short (approx 40 minute) presentations on specific topics of interest. We run forums throughout the day, and we’re always looking for leads, so if you’ve enjoyed a forum elsewhere, and you think we need to present the topic here, please email us and give us the details.
If you are a presenter, and would like to share your knowledge at TechFest, please do the same, and email our forums chairman.
