Packing List

Bring with you the following items:

• The poster (protected in a sturdy cylindrical container). Seal the container's covers with adhesive tape, because they can fall off in the airport handling.
• Double-sided adhesive tape and scissors, pins, or Blue-tack^TM
• The physical object, suitably protected
• Business cards with up to date contact information
• Promotional leaflet
• A laptop for running the demo
• The demo on backup media (CD-ROM, USB stick)
• Publications to distribute (e.g. paper reprints)
• Publications to display (e.g. a book)
• Giveaways: posters, pens, buttons, candy, CDs, T-shirts
• An attire appropriate for the occasion - consider wearing a T-shirt with the research project's logo
• Drinking water
• Reading material, to pass your time if attendance is low

Don't forget to update your web site, before you leave. Keep copies of the promotional material (leaflet, publication) in a web-accessible directory. You may find them useful, if you need to print additional copies from an Internet cafe, or a public PC room.
