Receiving a Response
We receive hundreds of speaker submissions and our team takes time to review each and every submission. We aim to respond to all submissions within 8 to 10 weeks after the application closes, however, we appreciate your patience if it takes longer. We will respond to everyone.
Cancellation of Confirmed Speakers
We take confirmations seriously. If a confirmed speaker cancels at the last minute, we unfortunately will not be able to work with that individual for future events. We do understand emergencies happen and we will evaluate on a case by case basis.
