In addition to presenting, speakers will be invited to a pre-event private dinner.

Session Overview

You are not required to be a professional speaker, but you must know what you’re talking about and have a desire to help others. We will select speakers based on how timely, relevant, and useful the topic sounds – so be detailed in your answers. Also, please keep language and content PG.
