Registration: Wednesday: 8:00am - 6:00pm
August 5, 2008: Technical Papers and Presentation Slides are due. Please send your materials via email to Keri Schnakenburg at KSchnakenburg@TechInsights.com.
Free Registration: As a speaker, you will receive complimentary registration to the Embedded Power Conference. There is no need to register for specific classes, as you will be given a badge providing you access to all the classes and all of the special events.
Colleague Discount: As a speaker, you are welcome to invite colleagues to receive a discount on Embedded Power Conference registration. You should have received the promotional code with your welcome email. In the case that you did not, please contact Jennifer Steele.
Extensive Exposure: Your name and course description are featured in our course catalog, our primary promotional brochure, and on our website. We will also be conducting an aggressive PR campaign, designed to increase interest in the conference and your presentation. At the conference, your class information will be part of the printed onsite attendee information packets. In addition, your name, biography, and course description will be available online.
Access to the Speaker Ready Room: Our Speaker Ready Room will be available for your use during the week of the conference. You will have space to prepare for your sessions, relax and network. There will be a projector, screen and printer available for your convenience.
Our chief objective is to produce an event recognized for its high-caliber technical presentations. As such, we strongly caution speakers against commercial presentations. Marketing pitches severely mar the integrity of the conference and, it should be noted, diminish the credibility of the speaker for attendees who are expecting content-rich sessions.
Similarly, the Embedded Power Conference prohibits the distribution within the classroom or technical program area any material (brochures, contest entries, product spec. sheets, etc.) related to the speaker’s company or its products. In promoting a speaker’s participation in the Technical Program, companies are strongly encouraged to keep these concerns in mind. We will not support or invite back any speaker who delivers a presentation with a focus on their company’s product or service, or who otherwise compromises the spirit of the speaker’s role.
