Group viewing will reside on circle.so.

In-person attendees will NOT receive access to the live, hosted, group viewing.

Recorded Presentation Format

Videos, in both viewing options above, will be formatted as the example below from the 2025 event… the slides are nice and big while you also get a good look at the speaker and their respective gestures.

Switching from In-person to Remote

If you purchased an in-person ticket, you may change it for a remote access registration at no cost and at any point.

Why all the limitations?

Respect for the content

It is already a stretch of their comfort level for many designers and their clients to present first round files in public so this is our way to control the exposure and broader distribution while minimizing the potential misuse of these presentations.

The equal cost of in-person tickets and remote access is because First Round events are 100% about the content. At the live event there are no goodie bags, no sponsors, no networking sessions… not even coffee.

The reason for pre-registration and non-availability after the event is to replicate as close as possible the nature of attending an event in-person… you either catch it or you don’t.
