Hi Andrew,
We are so thrilled to have you as one of our participants at the inaugural FUTURE VISION summit at ACMI in Melbourne. 

With Australia continuing to produce some of the world’s most talented storytellers, we hope that FUTURE VISION provides an opportunity for you all to come together and develop innovative and fresh ways of creating and collaborating in this new global marketplace.

Please see your panel information below.

You are required at ACMI (using the back Federation Square plaza entry) 30 minutes prior to your session start time. Our FUTURE VISION guest liaison team, led by Emily Smith, will meet you at the door for accreditation and escort you into the Green Room.

Emily can be reached by Phone/WhatApp/SMS on +61 434 940 248.

The best Uber/Cab drop off is Swanson Street, opposite Flinders Street Station. Then head into the plaza, past Chocolate Buddha and towards the tall yellow ACMI sign.

A final note that the stage has low, couch style chairs and you will wear lapel mics for the session itself.
