Apply to Speak at PMTC’s 2023 Conference
The PMTC is now accepting proposals from prospective speakers for our 2023 annual conference, being held at a new venue this year, the Hamilton Convention Center, from June 21st to the 23rd 2023. With the quality and popularity of our conference over recent years, the number of requests we receive from people asking to speak has increased significantly. In order to be fair to all, and to ensure we also maintain the quality and integrity of our educational seminars, we have decided this is the best route to go to search for speakers who can provide education on the topics we are looking for. We will be accepting proposals until December 31st of 2022. Successful proposals will be non-commercial, educational, and focused on current industry trends. (Please note, we do not pay for professional speakers at our events.) As a result of a survey of past attendee’s and PMTC Members, we have selected some suggested topics, however, please feel free to select a topic of your own to submit that you feel is relevant to today’s industry. No matter your submission, you must be able to present as an expert on your chosen topic to be considered for our 2023 conference. Please click here for full details and for the submission form.
