Asking questions during Q+As
Once the moderator opens the conversation to audience questions, you may raise your hand and a staff person will make their way over to you with a microphone.
If your question is addressed to a specific panelist, please mention who in the beginning of your question. Please keep questions short and concise, and limit one question per audience member.
The moderator will choose which questions to direct to the panelists based on relevance and time restrictions. We do not guarantee all or questions will be answered, or the order in which they are answered.
