The virtual conference consists of a [live-stream]({{site.baseurl}}{% link conference/livestream.md %}) of the keynotes and oral sessions, with the opportunity for questions and answers with the presenters, as well as poster sessions consisting of pre-recorded videos for all [papers](({{site.baseurl}}{% link conference/papers.md %})) as well as interactive discussions with authors over text, audio and video via rocket.chat channels. In addition there will be scheduled activities from sponsors and discussion/networking forums including a BMVA town hall meeting for future ideas and how to get involved.
