PREPARATION FOR THE
VIRTUAL CONFERENCE
The GIB Investment Summit is an annual event of thought leadership, topical discussions, and this year an online-inspired networking event.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
This year the GIB Investment Summit will use a specialised online networking platform. Attendees enter a “room” and are automatically placed at a table where you will see avatars of the other attendees at the event. By switching on your video and audio you will be able to engage and network with those at your table.
See how to use the platform as an attendee here.
