📚 Presenter Reference
🎤 Presentation guidelines+
Align with your approved proposal. Your presentation must stay consistent with the approved title, description, objectives, format, and content. Significant changes require conference-team approval.
Prepare for your session: follow the schedule, stay within the approved length, include clear learning objectives and practical takeaways, build in engagement, avoid selling, and have materials displayed as attendees enter.
Create accessible materials: readable fonts and sizes, strong contrast, captions/transcripts for video, alt text for meaningful images, uncrowded slides, clear headings, and digital handouts where possible.
🤝 Speaker responsibilities+
By accepting the Speaker Agreement, presenters commit to attend and present in person, register by the due date, submit all requested information on time, monitor and respond to conference communications, and participate in required onboarding.
Presenters also follow accessibility, technology, content, and professional-conduct guidelines; notify SENIA immediately of anything affecting participation; coordinate with all co-presenters; deliver the session at the assigned time; and obtain permission for any copyrighted content. Once the program is published, time-change requests may not be accommodated.
🌏 Travel, visa & participation+
Visa & entry. Presenters confirm Indonesia's entry requirements and obtain all required documentation. SENIA may provide a general participation letter when appropriate but cannot guarantee visa approval. Visa page →
Travel & accommodation. Unless included in a written speaker contract, SENIA does not cover flights, accommodation, visa fees, ground transportation, meals outside the program, travel insurance, or personal expenses. Partner hotels →
Technology & equipment. Bring your own chargers, presentation remotes, dongles, and connector cables, plus an offline backup of your presentation. A speaker technology survey may be distributed beforehand.
📅 Conference day requirements+
Check in as a presenter and collect your presenter badge, worn throughout the conference.
Arrive early for your session to meet the room host, confirm setup, open and test your presentation, check audio/video, arrange materials, and welcome attendees.
Follow the published schedule. Sessions begin and end at published times; manage your content, activities, discussion, and questions within the assigned period.
Unless otherwise stated in a separate written agreement, presenters are responsible for their own travel, accommodation, visa, transportation, registration, and related expenses. SENIA cannot refund registration fees if a presenter is later unable to attend due to visa denial, travel disruption, employer restrictions, or denied time off.
