With face-to-face meetings difficult in the foreseeable future, GMDSI sees webinars as a key mechanism for industry engagement. Our webinars take the following formats:
- instructional webinars, featuring one or two experts lecturing on a specific topic
- workshop webinars, featuring a number of presenters on topics which are philosophical rather than technical.
