Onsite non-technical practice rooms for demonstrators

There will be two onsite non-technical practice rooms available at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina to practice your stage presentations for DEMO. The rooms available for these rehearsals are Marina V & IV. There will not be a stage or technical equipment in these rooms, just a classroom style setup, a podium and basic internet access to help you practice. The rooms will be available on Sunday & Monday, September 20 & 21, exact times TBD. Sign up times will be available in 30-minute slots and, because of the number of companies using these rooms, there will a limit of one half hour slot per demonstrator. Sign up directions will be e-mailed to your logistics contact from Jackie DiPerna the week of September 14.

Please note – These rooms are non-technical, therefore there will be no technical equipment. Basic internet access will be available, however, this will not be the same access you will have on stage in the Grande Ballroom or at your station in the Pavilion. It will be basic service to enable you to access the web. Because the rooms are only available in half hour slots, we ask that you proceed with practicing your presentation verbally if you experience issues accessing the internet. Our internet access vendor will not be staffing these rooms. Your technical practice will take place on stage in the Grande Ballroom on either September 20 or 21.
