Seminars take place every other Thursday at 10AM ET (GMT+3; 9AM Chicago, 11AM Buenos Aires, 3PM London, 4PM Madrid, 5PM Tel Aviv).Â
Each one-hour seminar consists of two 25-minute presentations followed by a dedicated Q&A session. Select presentations will be recorded and made temporarily available on our YouTube channel. Speakers will remain available after the formal conclusion for additional discussion. We encourage professional yet open dialogue during the Q&A period.
