The virtual Bootcamp will start on the 18th of September, Starting at 8 am and ending at 5.30 pm. We will have five sessions, each with four speakers presenting for 15 minutes each, followed by 20 minutes for questions, then a break of around 30 minutes.

We'll also be holding webinars covering the topics we were to discuss on Sunday over the coming months, and your ticket to this Saturday also gets you access to those webinars.
