Major high fives and fist bumps for each and every person who took the time to submit pitches for this year’s community speaker spots!
With only two open community speaker spots, and hundreds of pitches ranging from how to grow your career as an SEO to all manner of AI and ChatGPT-related entries, the competition was unusually tough which, in its own right is a massive indication of many incredible things to come for the future of our industry and industry events.
Our selection committee read, watched, and researched, whittling things down to a shortlist of top contenders, and then read, watched, and researched some more to determine if a potential speaker and their talk would be a perfect fit for the AllrssCon stage this August. We take lots of things into account during our review, but ultimately there are four main factors that determine our final selections:
-
Strength of the pitch (e.g., value, relevance to the audience, etc.)
-
Can the content reasonably be delivered in the time allotted?
-
Does it fit with overall programming and agenda?
-
Will the topic have overlap with other presentations?
After much deliberation, we settled on two community speakers that we’re confident are going to be a great addition to the AllrssCon Stage.
Ready to meet our AllrssCon Community Speakers? Please congratulate 👏:
