Panels
Panel discussions are essentially discussions on current topics of interest among experts. Individuals wanting to chair a panel on a topic that intrigues them may propose a panel session. Topics that raise forward-looking and/or contentious issues and that will promote debate among panel members as well as audience involvement are strongly encouraged.
All suggestions will be assessed for topicality and ability to generate stimulating debate. Panels that include representative of industry and academia are highly encouraged.
The final list of Panel Discussions is now available online.
