What Technology do I need to participate in a virtual event?

We use a virtual conference platform environment which allows attendees to participate in sessions – we refer to this as your “attendee portal.” For the best experience, we strongly suggest using a desktop or laptop computer and Chrome as your internet browser. If you don’t already have Chrome, you can download it for free here.

As you join the event, there will be a check that your system is compatible with the virtual environment and to make sure your video and microphone are working correctly. You’ll want to allow access to your microphone and camera to participate in conversations with our Case Study presenters and Sales Reps.

Do I need to have a webcam (or built-in camera) for the event?

Although you do not need a webcam to attend virtual events, you’re encouraged to use your webcam when meeting with Presenters and Reps.

We strongly encourage you to please access the attendee portal the day before the Virtual Conference begins, so that if you do have any problems, we can help you troubleshoot so you have no problems on event day! You will receive notification in advance of each scheduled session as to when you can access the Event platform.

Do I have to attend the entire event?

Virtual events bring the experience of an in-person conference to your personal computer, so just like an in-person conference, you have the freedom to pick the keynote sessions you attend.

How do I log into the virtual event?

The day before each session, you will receive a dedicated email with your unique log-in. Do not share this with anyone – it is unique to you! This email will give you instructions on how to access the event Portal and a reminder of your minimum equipment required to access the Virtual Conference.

How do I get help if I am having trouble accessing the Virtual Conference or navigating the event portal once I’m online?

If you test your system and visit the event portal prior to the event and are experiencing issues, please email: fans@fresenius-kabi.com.
