Can I receive the presentation slides from a session I attended?
We have a task for speakers to opt-in or opt-out of making their presentation slides available to attendees. Not every session will have slides available to download as not every presenter gave us permission to share them. The speakers that did will have slides available within a couple of weeks after the show.
In the course description on the agenda, there is a section titled: Documents & Links below the session description that will have them to download.
Do I have access to session recordings?
For attendees with the Conference Pass, you'll have access to the video library of Greenbuild track sessions for 3 months after the event. For access to recorded sessions for the full year, or if you don't have the Conference Pass, you can purchase the Streamly Knowledge Library add-on.
*Greenbuild anticipates recording all track sessions; however, in case of unforeseen circumstances (technological or otherwise) recording of a particular session cannot be guaranteed.
