FAQs

What are the benefits for being a speaker?

  • Complimentary registration for the conference
  • Support and guidance from a Konnect Europe track owner
  • Recognition on the Konnect Europe conference website

 

What are the speaker responsibilities?

  • By submitting a speaker proposal and receiving approval from Riskonenct, you are authorising Riskonnect to publish your name, company name, biography, and presentation summary in conference materials, including the conference website. Accepted speakers will present in 45-minute breakout session. To ensure that Konnect Europe attendees experience relevant and professional presentations, speakers are expected to prepare their presentations according to the guidelines and timelines provided. Speakers will have access to Riskonnect professionals to help shape final content.

 

What topics should I submit?

  • We know that Konnect Europe attendees value sessions that are educational and practical. They want to leave the conference with best practices for maximizing their Riskonnect solutions and clear “to dos” to make effective changes in their organizations. Case study examples are particularly compelling, so others can learn from your approach, successes, and lessons learned.

 

What topics should I avoid?

  • Conference attendees clearly do not want to hear a sales pitch. If yours is a services organization, avoid case studies on behalf of a client or presentations on your methodology. Instead, encourage a seasoned consultant to offer a practical “how-to” topic focused on the products and solutions Konnect Europe attendees are using today. Attendees are interested in the how and why of what you are doing as it could apply to their own organizations.

 

May I submit a proposal on behalf of someone else?

  • Yes. Notification emails will be sent to the person who submits the proposal.
