Non-Commercial Policy

Henry Stewart Events encourages speakers to provide the audience with handouts that highlight important aspects of their personal learning experience. However, promotional literature cannot be included in these materials or in the presentation itself as this would compromise the unbiased nature of Henry Stewart’s educational program. Review of handouts and PowerPoint presentations by Henry Stewart staff prior to the session is required.
