Tech Set Up & Equipment for your Talk

Last updated on Mar 02, 2024

When you arrive in the room there will be a connector for you to plug your laptop into, to project your slides, if you have any.

What you should bring with you:

  • Your own computer, Mac, PC or Chromebook, all will work with our setup. You will be presenting your slides from your laptop.

  • It's also very important to be sure to bring your laptop charger so it has plenty of power to get through your talk!

  • Your slides, stored locally on your hard drive, even if they're saved to the cloud, just in case there are internet connection issues.

We will provide:

  • Projector

  • USB-C connector

  • Clicker (to move through your slides)

  • USB-C to USB-A converter

How to Connect your Laptop

We have two options for connecting your laptop:

Option 1 - USB-C

Plug the provided USB-C connector (dongle) into the side of your computer.

The clicker will then plug into the dongle as well.

Option 2 - HDMI

Pull the video cable from the dongle and plug it directly into your laptop. Please be sure to plug it back into the dongle when you are done, to help the next person's set up go smoothly. You can use the USB-A port for the clicker connector.

We will have tech support on site. Their contact information will be provided on the introduction paper that is in every room. However, there isn't tech support assigned to every room so please try your best to get everything set up yourself.
