I received my confirmation of payment for our suite, but why does it not include a link?

Please send a quick note to info@​edssummit.​com. That will be the best way for us to get you that link.

Do all ballrooms have a projector screen?

Ball­rooms and meet­ing rooms can be equipped with a pro­jec­tor and screen, but that will need to be arranged through the hotel A/V provider (Encore). The hotel will be in con­tact with all com­pa­nies reg­is­tered for ballrooms/​meeting rooms to arrange logis­tics, like pro­jec­tors and screens.

When will we receive catering and A/V service information?

Resorts World will be con­tact­ing com­pa­nies with reserved space in the com­ing weeks.

Do we get the booking link when we pay for a meeting room like we did at Mirage?

Yes, please con­tact info@​edssummit.​com if there are any issues.

In previous years, we received access to the full list of Manufacturers attending with a contact name and location, which was great. Will this be added later on, or is this replaced by the matchmaking option?

The Who’s Here page on the EDS web­site has an up-to-date list of com­pa­nies who are reg­is­tered. Con­tact infor­ma­tion is only avail­able for com­pa­nies who give out that information.

For submitting my “Import Staff List Template,” do I need to create a username and password for Swoogo, or can I just email the names/info on an excel file to info@edssummit.com?

You may email your infor­ma­tion in an Excel file to info@edssummit.com.
