The caliber of your speakers will set the tone for your entire BizTech experience. Therefore selecting and inviting the right speakers to compliment your event is one of your most important duties.
Who will be your ideal speakers?
Discovering and getting extraordinary business leaders and voices in your local community is an art.
Here are some qualities of a qualified speaking candidate:
- Local voices your local entrepreneurs are dying to meet but few have met them before
- Speakers who are authorities in their field
- Speakers who have not already spoken at any previous BizTech event
- Speakers whose work or product fits your event theme
- Speakers who has deep knowledge on the subject matter they are going to be presenting on
- All speakers must be able to show up in person and present live
Note:
- It is critical that you explain BizTech to every speaker that you invite, and that you make clear the purpose of your event
- Speakers who are service providers should not pitch their product or service during their speaking session. The entrepreneurs are here to learn and connect with each other, not listen to a sales pitch
- Established authors and media personalities should be invited well in advance
- Always get BizTech team approval prior to reaching out to speakers
