  • If I am unable to attend one of the sessions, will they be recorded?

    While we are committed to delivering valuable content and engaging with participants across EO’s numerous time zones, we recognize the challenge of scheduling live sessions that suit our entire community. We have made every effort to schedule sessions at times that accommodate most time zones, balancing logistical constraints, including speaker availability.

    If you cannot attend a session in person, all sessions will be recorded for later review in English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and Portuguese.

    Please note that only program registrants will have access to these recordings.
EO is committed to providing members with the best learning opportunities possible, even when speakers may have opinions we disagree with. Just because a speaker has been brought to an EO platform does not mean that EO endorses all of their past comments. We require all speakers to respect our members and values when interacting with EO. In return, we ask our community to be respectful of the diverse thoughts and perspectives of the various voices we bring to our learning platform.
