Submit session, speaker ideas for the 2016 IRE Conference

IRE is looking to you for input in planning sessions for the upcoming IRE Conference, June 16-19 in New Orleans.

Please let us know what you'd like to learn – and who you'd like to hear from – at this year's conference. You can submit panel topics and suggest speakers. The more we hear from you, the better the conference will be. 

Proposals for sessions will be accepted from Jan. 25 - Feb. 15.  It will not be possible to include every submitted panel in the program. If your panel is selected, you will be notified no later than the end of April. At that point, we will ask you to confirm your proposed speakers and provide more detail about the session. Since we are not able to accept every proposal, we do not recommend that you confirm each speaker in advance. 

Because of the large number of speakers participating at the conference, IRE will not be able to cover travel and lodging. 

When putting together your panel ideas and suggesting speakers, please keep in mind that IRE values diversity in many ways, including race, gender, nationality, geography, organization size and type of medium.

Please include as much detail as possible when submitting your proposal. To submit your proposal, click here.
