We're looking forward to hosting you through our all-in-one online event platform: Hopin. During Leaders Summit, you will take part in main stage plenaries, breakout sessions, networking opportunities, and even 1:1 bilaterals via video chats! Please take a moment to secure your seat, complete your Hopin profile, and preview the event.  For your profile please include your full name, email, company and profile picture. This will help our virtual event feel more like an in-person event! Also, please add your LinkedIn profile, Twitter, handle, and website in case you would like to connect with others during the virtual network or after the event.

Here are a few best practices in preparation for the summit:

Join from a compatible browser. Hopin works best on Chrome and Firefox.  Check your internet speed. We recommend a minimum of 5mbps download and 2mbps upload. Ideally, we like to see 30mbps download and 10mbps upload or higher for the best quality. Click here for a speed test. Restart your computer before joining the event. Ensure no other video applications are holding onto audio or video for any reason and all other websites are closed for optimal performance. Use headphones when participating on-screen. Help eliminate echo and feedback. Make sure your headline is up-to-date. We recommend writing your full name followed by your organization name. Join the conversation on social. Use the hashtag #LeadersSummit and #UnitingBusiness. Dress to impress. You'll have the opportunity to video chat with fellow attendees, so make sure to tune-in camera ready. Get familiar with the platform. Watch the "How to use Hopin as an attendee" tutorial video.

We can't wait to see you soon. Don't forget to add the event to your calendar, and please feel free to reach out with any questions in the meantime. Sincerely, Leaders Summit Secretariat

Topic: My Activities with COVID-19 Response in Liberia

As many of you are aware, I have been in Liberia for more than three months, where I redirected my volunteer activities from the Roads To Health rural programs to assist with the COVID-19 response in Liberia as a volunteer consultant epidemiologist predominately with the epidemiological surveillance team.

I just returned to the US but continuing with the response services along with the teams.

I want to invite you all to attend series of conference calls starting on Wednesday, June 10, 2020 at 5pm Eastern Time to share with you what I and the epidemiological surveillance and other teams at the National Public Health Institute/ Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization, the Liberia Public Health Association as well as many partners have been doing in the COVID-19 pandemic response.

The meetings will provide general, health, political, social, community, and scientific

perspectives related to our work and managing COVID-19. We will also discuss the roles we all can play as stakeholders in managing COVID-19, other real and potential infectious diseases, and global health issues.

We will have other professionals to also answer your questions and guide you on how you can use targeted resources help.

Thank you.
