Speaker Submission Guidelines

Already a speaker? Find out all you need to know here:

SPEAKER CONSENT

All speakers must explicitly consent to their inclusion in all content submissions prior to applying. Please do not try to convince speakers to participate after they have already been submitted in an application.

SPEAKER REGISTRATION

Confirmed speakers (panelists/presenters/moderators) on our main agenda will receive complimentary registration for the full conference. We highly encourage everyone to register for HLTH Europe 2024 as soon as possible to take advantage of lower rates. Prices will increase as we get closer to the event. If you are selected as a speaker, your registration will be refunded or can be transferred to a colleague.

SUBMISSION ACCEPTANCE

The deadline for speaker submissions is 20 December 2023 at 6pm CET. If HLTH Europe is interested in moving forward with your application, a member of our content team will reach out to schedule a call. We will require direct contact with the proposed speaker before final confirmation. 

RECEIVING A RESPONSE

We will  provide a response to all who apply, regardless of whether or not we’re moving forward with your application. Responses will be made on a rolling basis, beginning in September 2023 until the agenda is completed. Speaker applications close on 20 December 2023 at 6pm CET, with final responses sent out 6 weeks after the deadline. Those who apply early (September onwards) have a greater chance at being accepted as there is a limited number of speaking opportunities within the programme. HLTH speakers are typically senior leaders within their sectors, with an emphasis on healthcare providers across the European ecosystem. We are particularly keen to speak to those who are looking to make announcements at the event.

SPEAKER CANCELLATIONS

We take confirmations seriously. If a confirmed speaker cancels at the last minute, we will not be able to work with that individual for future events. We do understand emergencies happen and we will evaluate on a case by case basis whether we accept a potential replacement. HLTH Europe reserves the right to cancel the speaking slot entirely if the initial speaker can no longer uphold their commitment.

SPEAKER CHANGES

Our content team must approve any speaker changes before a speaker invitation is extended to the potential replacement. Any speakers who are not approved by the content team are subject to cancellation by HLTH Europe.

CHANGES TO SESSION CONTENT

HLTH Europe reserves the right to cancel a session if the speaker is not able to deliver the original concept in the proposal and/or misses key deadlines.

MULTIPLE SUBMISSIONS

Please note that there is a limit of one submission per speaker, and three per organisation. We book speakers, not companies. Once an application is submitted it should not be re-submitted. If you feel that making a correction would be imperative to your application, please reach out to speakers@europe.hlth.com and we will do our best to accommodate any updates.

TRAVEL AND ACCOMODATION

HLTH Europe does not cover travel & accommodation costs for speakers. You will find information on recommended hotels closer to the date on our website.

HONORARIUMS AND 'PAY TO PLAY'

Please note that sponsoring is entirely separate to speaking. We invite and select speakers for HLTH Europe based on merit (there is no 'pay to play', hence we do not accept sponsorship or payment  for a speaking role). We will invite the individuals who bring original content and are interesting for our audience.

HLTH Europe also does not pay honorariums to any speakers.
