Arnold is on the side of the room as chairman of the day. Boring speakers become fun, reclusive individuals become compelling, and the panel-that-always-agrees-with-each-other suddenly goes into battle. From his background as an engineer, he effortlessly asks in-depth questions about energy, technology, geopolitics and economics.

Arnold likes to be involved in the event at an early stage. Once the topics and speakers have been discussed it is time to come up with fun theses. Professionals like to go straight to the material, so to prevent it from becoming boring he looks for humor and interaction between speakers and responds to this effortlessly on the day.

Arnold prefers to use an app that allows the audience to ask questions live. This can be used in various ways. For example, a closed statement just before a speaker comes up to give them a chance to ask questions. The app also offers the possibility of streamlining the Q&A into the program.

Whether it's energy, robotics, self-driving cars or manufacturing automation
Arnold, as an engineer, can zoom in on any challenges surrounding a project and challenge a speaker a bit with a focused and reasoned question.

The quoted gage represents the day itself and the preparations with the other speakers and organization assuming the preparations take about as long as the day itself.

Arnold worked for years for the largest multinationals in the energy industry after which he started his own company within gas extraction. So you know you have someone on stage who understands your theme and speakers and therefore gets to the heart of the matter better than many other chairmen within this industry.
