Design Factory premises are at participants' use during the day. You are free to use the materials you find for your presentation. If you need something special, contact the organizers. Also the entertainment rooms are at our use, so why not take break and try your skills at karaoke, for example. Disturbing and plagiating other teams is strictly forbidden. During the event, a warm lunch will be served. Some snacks will be available throughout the day and in the closing session.
