How GOLD Works

The 2023 GOLD Lactation Conference kicks off on April 3, 2023 with our Free Live Keynote Presentation and is followed by a series of "Live Days" which are held over the following week. Each Live Presentation Day consists of 4 or more Live Speaker Presentations followed by a Question & Answer Session after each presentation or Interactive Sessions. We've made attending Live presentations easier with convenient presentation times to fit a range of international timezones.

Each presentation and interactative session is recorded and we make recordings available in the Delegates Area at the end of each Live Day. Conference Attendees will have until June 30, 2023 to watch as many presentations as they like. Those with GOLD Annual Membership will have until July 21, 2023.

Early Bird Registration for the Conference opens on January 16, 2023. Registration is very easy and only takes a few minutes to complete. In addition to the discounted early bird rate for individual Conference Participants, there are additional discount savings for groups and those from certain Countries.
