WHAT’S THE APRIL SUMMIT SCHEDULE? WHAT ARE THE START TIMES IN MY ZONE?
At the BAM Global Summit Online on Thursday 27 April, there will be two live Main Stage Broadcasts, one during waking hours in Eastern Hemisphere time zones and later on in the day a second broadcast for the Western Hemisphere times zones. Both these Main Stage plenary times will be live and interactive and will cover the same content, so you only have to attend one of them. You can come to whichever suits your schedule the best.
In between these two live broadcasts, East and West will come together for a Joint Schedule of Breakouts and Networking.

WHAT IS ON THE PROGRAM? SPEAKERS? BREAKOUT OPTIONS?
At the Summit this year we will have a very exciting program and line up of speakers and panellists for you! Download Schedule Overview
BAM Global events are business as mission community events. That means that we don’t focus on a few headline speakers, but we invite many seasoned BAM practitioners and leaders to share their stories and share their experiences. We are all learning together, so much of the value of our events is hearing from and connecting with many different people. We also want to hear what God is saying to us, both as we plan the program and as we listen to it! We are prayerfully putting together the Summit schedule and trust that the Lord will encourage each of us as we gather together.
What to expect:
+ Main Stage talks, stories, interviews and resources with BAM leaders and practitioners
+ Four panel options focused on practical topics
+ Five case study options giving you the opportunity to go deeper into a BAM story
+ Network Roundtables to connect you with others who share your interests
+ Networking, Expo Booths and plenty of interactions!
Panels and Case Studies will be recorded, meaning you can watch more breakout options using the Hopin Replay feature later.

WHERE WILL THE ONLINE EVENTS BE HOSTED?
We will use a platform called Hopin to host our online events.
We will send all registered attendees Event Access instructions, including a link and password, to enter the April Summit 2-3 days before the event is due to start.
Attendees will also get a reminder that the Summit is due to begin one hour before the start time.
For more about the technology we are using, please read our Tech Help Page here.
FOR EMERGENCY ACCESS: Please read the next question!
HOW WILL I ACCESS THE LIVE EVENTS? I CAN’T FIND MY ACCESS CODE!
Hopin is the platform we’ll use to broadcast the BAM Global Summit. If you are registered for the Summit, we will send you a Hopin link and password by email in order to access the event.
Please allow at least 10 minutes before the start time to create your Hopin account and sign in. As with all events, it takes a little time to get there!

WILL THE SESSIONS BE RECORDED?
YES! Main Stage presentations and Case Study/Panel breakouts will be recorded at the BAM Global Summit.* If you are not able to attend all the sessions, you can catch up later and watch more breakouts than you were able to attend on the day. All attendees will be sent information after the event on how to access the recordings.
Our event platform Hopin has a REPLAY option that we will use to give you access to the Summit recordings. Main Stage sessions should be available within an hour of original broadcast if you log back into the Hopin event. Breakouts will be added as soon as possible, but please note that due to the editing work and processing time involved, these can take some days to complete and make available. Once added, all Replay recordings will be available until the 31st December 2023.
* Please note that there may be 1 or 2 breakouts that we are not able to make available in recordings due to extreme security concerns of the presenters.
