Quick answer
What this page settles
The printed clock starts a readiness check; it does not replace a confirmed go cue. Use this page to create a business programme where every speaker and transition supports the outcome. The working record is message hierarchy, introductions, deck status and session cutoffs; the main failure to prevent is speaker overruns and late deck changes diluting the central message.
