All presentations should be in English.

Presentations must be uploaded to COMS by November 2, 2025.

To upload your presentation, log into COMS and locate your submission(s) from the left side menu. The “Upload the presentation” option is at the bottom of the Your Submission/s page.

Please check in with the session chair before your session starts.

Poster presentations

For this year’s conference, we are offering video posters and regular posters. Please check the detailed programme to see which type of poster you have been assigned.

Video posters
Each video poster presenter will be provided with a computer monitor (24 inch) on a standing table situated alongside one of two walls in the conference hall. The monitor has an HDMI or display port and a corresponding cable. You will need to bring your own computer and attach it to the monitor.

The content and format of the video poster is up to you and your own creativity.

Paper posters
The paper poster format is A0 (841 mm x 1189 mm) in portrait orientation.

You may use the ICSC 2025 poster template or create your own.

Paper posters can be mounted on the day of your allotted poster session and must be removed by the end of the day.

Mounting materials will be provided at the venue.

Poster pitches

Your poster will be included in the Poster Pitch sessions on either Nov 5 or Nov 6, as indicated in the program.

During these sessions, you will have the opportunity to briefly present your poster to all conference attendees in a plenary setting. You will have 50 seconds to summarize the key points of your poster and why attendees should visit it. The order of presentations will be based on the ID numbers.

When it is your turn, a slide with your name and title will appear on the screen. Please note that no slides or visuals are allowed for your pitch. Please focus on the most interesting aspects of your poster. A timer will be displayed on the screen and the slide will automatically change to the next one when your 50 seconds is up.

Please respect the time allotted and the presentations of other participants. 

Poster printing instructions

Poster printing is the responsibility of each participant, and costs are not covered by the conference. If you wish, you can print locally in Oslo by using our recommended provider, Webergs.
