How GOLD Works

The 2020 GOLD Birth & Beyond Conference kicks off on October 5, 2020 with our Free Live Keynote Presentation and is followed by a series of "Live Days" which are held over the following week. Each Live Day consists of 4 or more Live Speaker Presentations followed by a Question & Answer Session after each presentation. Take advantage of convenient Live presentations times to fit a range of international timezones.

Each presentation is recorded and we make recordings available in the Delegates Area at the end of each Live Day. Conference Attendees will have until November 30, 2020 to watch as many presentations as they like. Those with GOLD Annual Membership will have until December 21, 2020.

Early Bird Registration for the Conference opens on August 4, 2020. Registration is very easy and only takes a few minutes to complete. In addition to the discounted early bird rate for individual Delegates, there are additional discount savings for groups and those from certain Countries.
