The SRI Conference features the best and brightest from across the SRI and ESG ecosystem. Speaking spots are limited and competitive. Keep these guidelines in mind as you craft your proposal, so you can put your best forward:

  • Be forward-looking - We are interested in sessions that focus on the future of specific industries and organizations.
  • Be disruptive - If you have a new business model that will shake things up, we want to hear about it!
  • Share actionable ideas - Your goal should be to provide content that participants can use right away
  • Be impactful – Tell a story, use case studies, be creative.
  • Be authentic - Our participants want to hear from those on the front lines of SRI and ESG.
  • Be unique - Do you have a bold, "out of the box" idea to move SRI/ESG forward? Tell us everything.

What are we looking for in our speakers?

  • Diversity and inclusion - Sessions that reflect diversity of race, gender, age, background, and belief systems are given priority.
  • True leadership - Are they leading in this time of disruption? Are they leading by example?
  • Authenticity -Do they have a unique story to tell? Are they willing to share both their successes and challenges?
  • Forward thinkers - Can they offer their vision and project what the industry will look like in 10 years?
  • Asset deployers - Our audience is keen to hear from financial advisors, asset owners, and others who direct investment dollars.
