This talk is currently in development. More information will be displayed here soon…..
Online talks - how does it work?
Whilst Stephen loves meeting people in person, offering to delivery his talks online via Zoom (or other platforms) allows him to deliver presentations further afield without the additional costs for travel expenses and accommodation.
The club / group would be responsible for the costs associated to facilitating the meeting online and invite Stephen to speak by sharing a link for him to join. He would then share his screen to showcase his presentation.
