PROCESS OVERVIEW

The Applied Intelligence Live! Austin team employs a robust speaker evaluation and selection process. We go through several rounds of review to ensure that we select presentations that best represent our attendees’ interests. This gives our conference an edge over other industry events!

  • June 26, 2023: Call for Speakers opens
  • August 14, 2023: Call for Speakers ends
  • Early September: Final notification of acceptance status

We are looking for fresh guidance and insights for the 2023 program. Therefore, please adhere to the following guidelines:

  • No more than two proposals per speaker.
  • Interactivity is encouraged — proposals that emphasize attendee engagement will be given priority.
  • Case studies will receive priority consideration.
  • Veteran speakers are welcome, but new material will be prioritized over past material.
  • Solution providers are encouraged to submit proposals, but a customer must be featured as a co-presenter.
  • Commercial/promotional content will not be considered (see above for eligibility criteria)

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT

  • If you are selected for the final program, you will receive a Speaker Agreement confirming your benefits and affirming your commitment to the event.
  • You (and any proposed co-presenters or panellists) must be available to speak anytime from September 20 - 21; all sessions are assigned a date/time at the discretion of the program team.
  • You are expected to cover the entirety of your assigned time slot and present the session as described in the agenda. Attendees will be evaluating you on how well your session related to the topic described in the agen­da; for example, if you submit a topic geared toward mature organizations or experienced enterprises or AI & IoT professionals, attendees will verify that you satisfied that expectation.
  • Speakers are selected, not companies. If you must withdraw from the program, Informa Tech reserves the right to re­place the canceled session with a comparable topic and speaker from the wait list.
  • Each speaker will receive two complimentary delegate conference passes. Travel arrangements and hotel accommodations are the responsibility of the speaker(s).
  • All sessions will be recorded (audio or video, at the discretion of the program team),.
