Speaker Timeline
Leading up to the conference, there are several key deadlines requiring direct response from you and any joint presenters. With your assistance in meeting these deadlines, we can publish content on various platforms including the website, the mobile app and program guide, and allow us to attract the right audience to your session and give you and your topic ample exposure. To remain in the IPMI Conference & Expo education program, the following deadlines and requirements must be met:
