HOW WILL I ACCESS THE ONLINE CONFERENCE?
PheedLoop Virtual Event Platform (Available March 3) – The online conference will be hosted on the PheedLoop Virtual Event Platform. A username and password will be emailed by March 3. In addition, attendees will be invited into the conference Slack. Optional 'community connections' (social breakout activities) will be held on zoom meetings or on Gatheround.
D4D 2023 SCHED program (Available now) – Attendees may view the program and build a personal schedule on SCHED. (See 'How do I build my schedule?' below)
CAN I SHARE ACCESS WITH A COLLEAGUE?
No. The PheedLoop platform requires each viewer to have an individual profile. This profile will be used during Q&A with the speakers, to communicate and network with other attendees, exhibitors, speakers, etc. Each attendee must have their own registration.

ARE THERE SPECIAL TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS?
No. You do not need to download or install any software. The Virtual Event Platform runs entirely online via your internet browser. For the best virtual experience:
- Use a desktop or laptop computer: Tablets, phones, and Chromebooks are not supported fully on the platform.
- Use a supported internet browser: Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Safari. Internet Explorer is not supported.
- Google Chrome is most compatible with PheedLoop-integrated plugins.
- If you are on a VPN, please review this information to ensure you will not experience any issues.
WHAT TIMEZONE IS THE EVENT?
On the D4D 2023 SCHED program (Available now), all sessions are listed in the Central Time Zone.
On the PheedLoop virtual conference platform, the times will be automatically adjusted based on the time zone you are in (based on your computer's date/time settings).
What does this mean for me? The PheedLoop Virtual Event Platform will adjust to your time zone. If you are in any time zone other than Central Time, the times on PheedLoop will not match those on SCHED.
-
- In California, US (PST), the session start time reads 7:45 AM PST
- In London, UK (GST), the session start time reads 3:45 PM GMT
