hi all welcome to besides athens 2022 i'm jessica russo speaking from london we are glad to have received your continued support and participation through the years bringing us to today the seventh besides athens this year we have been extremely busy regaining control of our lives back from coronavirus till the last moment we were not quite sure whether we would manage to host an in-person event hence we decided to stream it on youtube similarly to last year in order to save up some energy for next year's event and maybe a couple of aces in the whole we cannot thank enough our sponsors who reached out to us this year offering their support just for this year we decided to not
accept any sponsorships as this event is going to be virtual and our costs are significantly lower however we have missed you a lot and we are committed to making next year's event a great in-person gathering should you wish to sponsor us or support us in other ways please don't hesitate to reach out to us as soon as possible today's agenda includes 12 talks and one workshop we want to thank our speakers for their amazing efforts we hope that you will love their talks if you already follow us on the social media you must have noticed the design of this year's t-shirt next year when we meet in person we will have the designs of all three years of
our virtual events available for you to pre-order about cps we will follow the same pattern as last year two google forms will become available 10 minutes each for you to fill in and submit the opening of its form will be announced on the stream form a will be released in the morning whereas form b in the afternoon successful completion of both forms will grant you the certificate of attendance for you to be able to claim 10 cps in two weeks time during the event we encourage you to be connected with us on discord to chat about the talks and to ask us any questions you may have also we will be posting updates throughout the day so don't worry if you
