PROGRAMME PRINCIPLES
Credibility before commercial volume
GNF26 protects the quality of the stage through clear editorial standards.
01
Relevance
Every session must address a material question for the GNF26 audience.
02
Balance
Panels should represent complementary or contrasting perspectives, not a single sales narrative.
03
Seniority and expertise
Contributors are assessed on role, experience, subject knowledge and ability to add practical value.
04
Editorial approval
Commercial support does not automatically secure a stage role; all participation requires written approval.
