Event Tech Access for Portal and Players: Tech Share Pro
Here is a brief overview of how the portal and player work:
MY PROFILE
We have already entered some of your profile information, including your name and email address. For your security, please change your password.
You can also manage your event viewing experience by toggling between “Onsite” and “Online” modes. To do this, follow the following steps-
Go to ‘My Profile’> Edit Profile>Scroll down to the bottom of your profile page where you will see “Where are you attending from? (Please refresh the page after clicking on update)”, toggle Enable or Disable according to your preference.
ATTENDEES
The Attendees section lists all registered attendees, speakers and exhibitors sorted by color. Click on an attendee icon to visit their My Profile page.
To network with a fellow attendee, click on the attendee’s profile picture to open his/her profile. Use the “Contact Me” button to reach out to the attendee directly.
Please note: Your contact details will only be visible to other attendees when they click on your profile and visit your individual profile page, and if you have enabled visibility using the toggle option.

The schedule provides date/time/venue information about each conference session. To watch a live session, click on the “Watch Now button, which is located within each live-streamed session’s description details.
