What virtual conference software is GRASFI 2020 using?
We are using Remo.co. Remo allows us to have concurrent parallel sessions and for you to network and move around the conference space during breaks– much like you would in a physical event. To get yourself familiar with the software we will send you a how-to video ahead of the event. To get you started, please watch the video below.
