The ability to attend all conferences, or even all session at a given conference, is impossible for the busy medical professional. Webcasting provides a means of sharing knowledge and learning opportunities beyond the dates of the actual event and thus serves a vital educational need. Materials are saved locally, but at the same time, can be distributed over the web to viewers around the world via a robust cloud server. Viewers can access the broadcasts using PCs, tablets, or smartphones live (as streamed video) or later, as on-demand webcasts.

Kenes offers two types of webcasting options:*

• Video includes a video screen of the speaker during the session, PowerPoint slides (in sync with the speaker), and audio.
• Digital Imaging includes PowerPoint slides with audio.
• Support will be recognized on the home screen with ˝Supported by… ˝ and a company logo only
• Support will be acknowledged in the Industry Support and Exhibition section of the program guide, on the event website and application, and with signage during the event.

*Webcasted sessions to be designated by the Conference Planning Group. Supporters will have no influence on content. NGC retains the copyright of all of the enduring materials in all media formats arising from the main meeting, including the use and distribution rights for webcasting of all conference accredited programming.
