Explanation:
Definitions of Breakout session on the Web:
• One of the side sessions during a meeting, as opposed to the keynote session. Often meetings will be broken into "tracks"-sequences of breakout sessions each following a different theme or topic. Most breakout sessions are from 4S to 90 minutes. Two or three breakouts are typically held simultaneously. Attendees may go to the ones that interest them most. Therefore, total attendance at breakouts is less than at keynotes, and breakout speakers often command a lesser fee than a keynoter. Example: At the annual meeting of a printing industry association, a sales trainer giving a breakout on how to use
or
• A small group session within a large meeting.

Explanation:
Gelijk toegegeven, lang niet zo vaak voorkomend (of zo mooi) als de laatste twee oplossingen, maar het wordt toch wel in het Nederlands gebruikt en ik wilde het gewoon even als extra mogelijkheid opgeven.
