The speakers will attempt to answer all questions asked by you with the use of your microphone or in the Zoom Chat during the presentation - the questions will be answered right away, or at the end during the general Q&A part - the speakers will decide about this.

To ask your question or share during the webinar (using your microphone) please use the "raise hand" function in Zoom and the moderator will unmute you at the appropriate time.

In such cases please keep questions as short and clear as possible so the speakers can complete the presentation within the planned time frame.

It helps to keep our friendly and authentic atmosphere. The speakers prefer it and we would all really love to see you and hear you!
