Call For Speakers - Guidelines & Tips

  • Keep the content focused on education only. We will not be able to consider any sessions with sales materials or speaker's company products.
  • Make sure your information is accurate and complete. Incomplete session details cannot be considered.
  • Only submit as many sessions as your speaker is willing to present. It is possible that multiple sessions will be accepted for any speaker.

There will be a "New to Summit" orientation and a meet-and-greet scheduled. It’s important to connect with other first-time attendees, so you can get the most out of this event.
