Panel and Point/Counterpoint Discussions (45 minutes)

Idea and Innovation Showcases (generally 12 minutes @ for 3 presentations)
Intense, fast-paced multi-presentation sessions that include sharing new ideas and methodologies, exchanging success stories, and exposing challenges that would benefit from group discussion. The key is to present a transformative idea and solicit discussion amongst attendees. Examples include discussing a tool, technique, or methodology that shows potential for widespread adoption or bringing up an issue that will provoke questions and discussion. Make it creative, make it fun, or make it funny! These sessions will have a moderator to facilitate presentations and the discussions.
