About Zoom events

The Virtual DLF Forum will take place on Zoom Events. Zoom Events provides a hub for the event, which allows registered attendees to connect with one another through the Lobby and direct messaging (if opted-in) and to easily view the program schedule, speakers, and sponsors. To join Zoom Events that you are registered for, you can click the join link in the confirmation email, calendar entry, or the ticket in your Zoom Events account. You can also join Zoom Events from the Zoom desktop client, a web browser, Zoom mobile app, or the events detail page. 

Important: You must be logged in to Zoom with the email address you used to register for the event. 

Days before the event, we recommend updating your Zoom Client for the best possible experience. See this Zoom support article: Updating Zoom to the latest version. See also: Joining Zoom Events (Zoom support article).

Attendees will register through Conftool and will be added to Zoom Events by Team DLF. 

To join the virtual event, please login to Zoom using the email you provided during registration
