When should speakers upload their content for a digital event to allow for testing and troubleshooting?

Uploading content 48-72 hours before a digital event is ideal because it allows sufficient time for testing and troubleshooting without being too close to the event. This window provides opportunities for thorough checks on audio, video, and any presentation materials, ensuring everything functions smoothly during the actual event. Moreover, if any issues arise, it offers a buffer to make adjustments or corrections, reducing stress for both the speakers and the event organizers.

While shorter time frames may seem convenient, they often do not allow enough time for thorough preparation and could lead to last-minute problems that would be harder to resolve. Conversely, excessively long periods, such as 1 week or 2 weeks, might lead to challenges related to updating content if changes are needed, which could result in creating more complex workflows. The balance provided by the 48-72 hour period helps optimize both preparedness and flexibility.
