Speak or contribute

Show the room something you have built.

The programme favours people who have done the thing over people with opinions about it. If you have built a centre, moved a mandate, written a policy, trained a workforce or shipped a product from India, tell us what you would show.

Six ways to contribute.

Plenary conversation
Two or three people, one question, no slides
Working session
A practitioner teaching something specific, with time for questions
Demonstration
A working system, shown by the team that built it
Industry table
A hosted conversation among peers in one industry
Pavilion briefing
A state’s policy or opportunity, explained by the people who run it
Craft or performance
For artists and artisans from the eight regions

What we look for.

  1. First-hand. You did it, or you led the team that did.

  2. Specific. One decision, one system, one result.

  3. Useful to someone deciding. A listener should leave able to do something differently.

  4. Not a pitch. Products are shown in demonstrations and are not sold from the stage.

Speaking places are not for sale.
