In order for us to coordinate this attendance please discuss and determine with your team members a Team Name you will use for registration purposes. This will assist us in coordinating your experience at the Summit. Tip: a short keyword driven Team Name is most appropriate and does not have to be the final title of your team idea. All Team members will need to know this precise name to provide during registration.
