Speaker Application Tips
- When pitching your talk, focus on the audience, not the selection committee. If your speech is selected, we will publish the information from your submission, including title and description.
- Be clear about what the audience will learn and why that is important. Be detailed, but be succinct.
- Choose a topic you know well and convey why you’re qualified to speak on the subject. We aren’t looking for experts, but we want to see that you know your stuff.
