IMPORTANT NOTES
An author may not present more than two proposals and each proposal must be different.
Avoid sales or marketing pitches when preparing your proposal; these talks take away from the integrity of our event and are rarely well-received by conference attendees.
Authors submitting proposals are responsible for ensuring that all speakers listed on the proposal have been notified of the submission.
Speakers are encouraged to promote the event via LinkedIn and/or Twitter. The planning team will provide promotional materials.
All accepted speakers are required to submit their slides by Friday, September 30, 5 p.m.
You may review, modify, or withdraw your abstract any time before May 30, 5 p.m.
We anticipate notifying presenters on the status of their proposal by June 30, 5 p.m.
We will provide complimentary Summit registration for accepted primary speakers and co-speakers.
