The CIGR 2020 local organizing committee is pleased to offer participants the chance to take charge of an entire 90-minute session during the conference. Sessions can consist of a series of technical presentations or they can give more time to an eminent scientist or even take the form of a panel discussion. A Technical Committee will evaluate the suitability of each proposed session and adjustments will be made if necessary to fit the scope of the conference.
