What is the format of DIRC21?

Rather than trying to imitate the in-person experience, this virtual conference will make full use of digital technology to create unique experiences that would not be possible for an in-person event, including a mixture of live and asynchronous sessions, virtual Q&A sessions, and various D&I related experiences. More specifically, pre-recorded content will be shared with all attendees on Wednesday November 10, 2021. This will give attendees a whole week to access content when it works for you. Then join us live on November 17, 18, and 19 for Q&A sessions with the presenters, interactive workshops, experiences and networking. The majority of live events will occur between 10am and 3pm ET on these days.
