Why do the timings on the EU Pharmaceutical Law Forum event guide differ to the timings I see on the agenda in the Virtual Event platform?

The event guide agenda is in CET time zone. 

However, within the virtual event platform, in order to make it easier for you to manage your time and schedule, the agenda will be presented to you in the time zone in which you are currently based.

E.g. If you are based in the UK, you will see the agenda in GMT time zone. If you are based in Europe, you will see the agenda in CET time zone. Etc.

How do I start a chat with someone?

In order to start an instant web chat, you need to establish mutual 'interest' with another attendee. Click 'show interest' on the attendee profiles of the people that you would like to connect with. This will send a notification to those people to make them aware of your interest to connect, and will be added to your 'MY 'INTERESTED' LIST' tab. If the person you have shown interest in shows interest in you too, you will form a connection, which will show in your 'MY CONNECTIONS' tab. With mutual 'interest' established, you will be able to start chatting via an instant chat messenger.

How do I ask questions?
Within each session, you will see tabs on the right hand side including the 'Q&A' tab. This is where you can submit your questions. Click on the '+' icon to submit your question (see image below). Once they have been approved, they will appear in the Q&A stream. We encourage you to write your name and company at the end of each question you submit as there may be others participating who will be able to follow up with you after the session to provide additional insights. Similarly, if you are submitting a question during a panel discussion that you would like answered by a specific speaker, please write @SpeakersName at the beginning of your question.

How do I set up a meeting?

To set up a one-to-one meeting, identify the person you would like to connect with. Click on 'Request a meeting'. Set the time and date for when you would like to meet (this will only show you times that both you and the meeting request recipient have available according to the availability you have set in your profile settings). Write a personal message to send along with your meeting request outlining why you would like meet, and click the send button. 

To set up a group meeting, send your one-to-one meeting request as explained above. Once this has been sent, you can add people to the meeting by clicking 'Add Invitee'. You can add a total of 50 attendees to one meeting.
