FAQ
What are Panels?
Panels are where informational content is best highlighted. Whether presenting alone on a topic of interest, or facilitating discussion with a collection of experts, panels serve as a space where one’s expertise is shared to a group of interested people. All panel rooms will be equipped with a projector, microphones, and an internet connection for most presentation needs.
What is Community Stage?
The Community Stage is focused on interactive content, where the audience can cheer on, talk to, and interact with their favorite VTubers in specialized events with attendees in mind. The Community Stage features a designated stage area and lighting, in addition to standard panel room equipment.
