Speaker Prerequisites

Conference attendees at Macworld expect the most up-to-date information from our speakers. They will evaluate your session based on how well you deliver the content, knowledge of the particular topic, and the visuals shared.  When submitting a proposal to speak, please take the following into consideration:

• The proposed session must be an original topic to present, and not repurposed from a course you have taught at another event.
• The educational programs at Macworld 2011 are NOT the appropriate place for promoting your company, product, service or solution.
• Topics should provide a unique perspective, viewpoint or way of doing something.
• You may be required to use a show template to display your visuals.
• Your presentation materials will need to be completed and submitted approximately 6-8 weeks before the conference for attendees to access and download prior to coming onsite.
• You will need to prepare adequate visual materials to accompany your talk.
• Macworld 2011 must be allowed to record and sell copies of your presentation.
• Speaker and panelist substitutions are not allowed, except in the case of an emergency. In the event that a speaker cannot fulfill his/her commitment due to an emergency, a substitute may be submitted in writing for approval; however this does not guarantee a speaking slot for the substitute.
• Speakers are responsible for expenses and hotel and travel arrangements.

DEADLINE TO SUBMIT WAS AUGUST 20th
