Just in case, please, prepare and bring a USB flash drive with your presentation files.
Poster session
- Poster presentations linked to a pitch will be displayed in the entrance hall (the same area as the coffee breaks). Only posters corresponding to pitches scheduled for that day will be exhibited
- Poster session for Innovative Research in GNC/V&V will take place at the cafeteria (during the cocktail dinner)
- The dimensions of your poster should be A0, portrait orientation (841 x 1189 mm).
- Your poster includes a title, the author(s), affiliation(s), and a description of the research highlighting the major elements that are covered in the abstract.
- Make sur your lettering is neatly done and is large enough to be read from a distance.
- At your arrival at ISAE-SUPAERO, the welcome desk will provide you information of the location of the boards and give you magnets to hang your poster.
- Before leaving ISAE-SUPAERO, you must take your poster with you and return magnets to the welcome desk.
