Step by step.
- 1.
Check your tracks
Suggestions are made per track. Add or remove tracks at the top of the page.
- 2.
Review suggestions for each track
Pick a track to see suggested keynote speakers and reviewers, matched on the track's research topics, with their affiliation and the reason they were suggested.
- 3.
Open the profile first
Each suggestion links to a public profile so you can check the person before you invite them. People already on the conference are marked.
- 4.
Select who to invite
Tick the people you want. A bar shows how many are selected for the track.
- 5.
Confirm the invitations
Add each person's email address and confirm. Keynote speakers receive an invitation with Accept and Decline, and reviewers accept from the email.
- 6.
Follow the answers
Nobody is listed publicly until they accept and you add them, and you track their answers alongside the rest of your program.
What you'll see.
- Suggestions grouped by track, keynote speakers and reviewers
- The reason behind each suggestion and a link to the profile
- A shortlist that is only a selection until you confirm
- The confirmation step before any invitation is sent
Questions.
Does the platform invite anyone on its own?
No. Suggestions are a starting point. An invitation is only sent after you add an email address and confirm.
Where do the suggestions come from?
From published researchers matched on the research topics of each track, using an open publication database.
Can I see why someone was suggested?
Yes. Each suggestion shows the reason and links to a profile so you can check it before inviting.
Can I use this for corporate events?
Committee suggestions are built for academic conferences with tracks. Corporate events can invite speakers directly from the speakers page.
