The WI Regional Summit committee will meet to review all applications and have final selections made in August 2022.
The committee will approve all presentation outlines prior to the Summit.
The NKY Chamber and WI Summit committee will coordinate all public relations and promotions for the event. The presentations are for educational purposes.
Speakers are asked to avoid self-promotion during the presentation because they will have other opportunities to promote themselves as outlined below.
Speakers are asked to refrain from political promotion during the presentation. The intent and purpose are for presentations to be informative for all attendees about your topic and not to focus on a single organization or political candidate/issue.
Speakers are welcome to collect business cards and raffle off a door prize at the closing session.
