Marketing & Social Media

We appreciate your assistance in promoting your session and the conference. You can find a social media toolkit HERE with sample text and graphics that you can use in your posts. Our Marketing committee will also be sending each speaker a personalized graphic with your session details shortly.


Session Handouts
If you have PowerPoint, handouts or any other materials please send them to us in advance so that we can include them in the mobile app for download for all attendees. This is our effort to save a few trees and allow our attendees to enjoy your session without having to frantically take notes.


Audio Visual & Room Setup
For breakout sessions, rooms will be set classroom style. The front of the room will have a screen, projector, microphone and a podium. The laptop will be connected to a small speaker for any audio within your presentation. The laptop will be connected to Wi-Fi. If you prefer to use your own laptop, please be sure to bring all appropriate adaptors and cabling. Panel discussions will also have a table and seating for all panelists at the front of the room, as well as name plaques for each panelist. Sessions last 75 minutes total including Q&A.


Presentation Guidelines
Please refer to our presentation guidelines linked below for specifics and useful tools for developing your presentation. A PPT template is also included.

Terms & Conditions

You can find our Speaker Terms and Conditions below that you agreed to when submitting your proposal as a reminder of our policies. If you have any questions on any of these items please let us know.



Room Host
Each session will have a designated volunteer Room Host. Your room host will greet you 15 minutes prior to the start of your session to make sure you have everything you need. They will make some announcements as attendees join the room and then introduce you as a speaker. The room host will also assist with anything you need during the presentation and be our point of contact in the event of any issues.

Our staff will be onsite beginning on August 20th.. If you need to reach one of us, please call Suzanne’s cell phone – 561.512.0761.
