Presentation Guidelines

For speakers and oral abstract presenters

Speakers and oral abstract presenters are required to prepare a PowerPoint presentation according to the instructions provided in the guideline documents below. Upon arrival at the congress venue, you will need to collect your badge at the registration desk and to upload your presentation slides at the Speaker Preview Room.

(Except LLL Speakers who will need to plug in their laptops directly inside the session rooms to share their slides.)

All presentations (except for LLL sessions) will be streamed on the ESPEN Congress Virtual Platform and Mobile App. The broadcast will contain the slides, voice, and video of the speaker.

The full session will be recorded and made available to registered attendees on the same platform until 31 December 2026.

The Speaker Disclaimer below will be presented to you for signature when you upload your presentation in the Speaker Preview Room.
Please do not send this form to us by email.

For ePoster presentations and ePoster display presenters

This year, ESPEN has chosen to go fully digital, meaning no poster boards will be provided for printed paper posters.

In addition to having your e-poster on one of the stations at the congress in Berlin, your e-poster will be available on the ESPEN Congress Virtual Platform and Mobile App via a portal.

e-Poster presenters are required to prepare an electronic poster according to the instructions provided in the guideline documents below. The presenting author will receive a notification letter, with the necessary guidelines and instructions to upload their e-Poster.

For session moderators and ePoster presentation moderators

Please locate your session location in due time and be there at least 10 minutes prior to the start of the session.

It is the moderator’s responsibility to ensure the smooth running of the session. Please carefully read the instructions and guidelines below:
