Session Detail Guidance & Requirements
Submission Tips

Getting your submission selected:

  • Focus on Popular Sessions: Tips, tricks, how-to, and tutorial
  • Optimize Title/Description: Clear is more important than clever, fill out all fields
  • Define Session Objective: Align session with the user journey of considering, new to, migrating or optimizing
  • Detailed Learning Objectives: 3 things that the attendee will take away from your session

Why sessions get rejected:

  • Feels like a sales pitch
  • Overly self-promoting
  • Does not deliver on the for user, by user premise of Summit NA
  • Contradicts market or technology/product truths
  • Incomplete submissions that do not have all fields filled out

Rules of engagement:
All speakers must be listed at the time of session submission. If speakers are added after submission, there is no guarantee for their inclusion. A company can have no more than 12 accepted sessions, with no more than 4 accepted breakout (60-minute) sessions per speaker.
