NOTE: If for some reason you do not receive an emailed submission confirmation within three hours after submission – a very rare or non-existent occurrence – please check your SPAM folder, re-submit your proposal with this form, and email chair@predictiveanalyticsworld.com; be certain to retain a copy of all your field entries above for your records.

Click the “Submit” button below only if
you agree to the following speaker requirements and restrictions:


  • Vendor-neutral content.

    Your presentation may contain no “sales pitches” or sales-oriented
    material. Although positive exposure is generally a natural
    side-effect of presenting at PAW, your session must focus entirely
    (with the exception of a brief, “non-salesy” mention of the software
    solution employed, if relevant) on substantive content that the
    audience can implement and benefit from without necessarily buying any
    particular product or professional service.


  • Completed work.

    The work about which you are proposing to speak must be completed,
    and any pertinent results attained, prior to submitting the speaker
    submission form.


  • Named case study.

    If your submission indicates you have authority to share
    the name of the organization or department that benefited from the
    deployment of predictive analytics, you must attain, prior to submitting the
    speaker submission form, such authorization, both for it to be named within
    your presentation materials, as well as within PAW’s event publicity
    materials and listings. If for any reason the organization subsequently
    revokes authorization to be named (i.e., “changes its mind”), the session
    will be cancelled from the PAW program.


  • Travel expenses.

    PAW does not have a budget to cover speaker travel expenses. Speakers
    are responsible for their own travel expenses. You certify that you
    have secured funds (or secured authorization for such funds, where
    applicable) to fully cover your travel expenses as needed in order to
    attend the event at which you are proposing to speak.


  • Speaker cancellation.

    You certify that you have the means and opportunity to attend and
    present at the PAW event at which you are proposing to speak, and that
    you have attained any pertinent authorization, such as that of your
    employer, prior to submitting the speaker submission form. If your
    submission to speak at PAW is accepted, cancellation subsequent to PAW
    speaker registration for any non-medical reason is against PAW policy
    and is considered an infraction against meeting your professional
    obligations. If your submission is accepted, PAW will rely on your
    participation and will turn away qualified speakers in favor of
    including your session. PAW begins publicizing your session
    immediately upon confirmation in order to attract attendees to the
    event. If medical conditions preclude your attendance at PAW, you agree to make best efforts to notify PAW as early as possible; in such a case,
    while assistance finding a replacement speaker is requested and
    appreciated, PAW must screen any prospective replacement speaker, and
    retains the right to find a replacement speaker on its own.


  • Agents and PR staff.

    If the person completing the speaker submission form is not the
    speaker (e.g., an agent, assistant, or PR staff), you must enter both
    your email address as well as the speaker’s, as indicated on the
    submission form. You certify that you are authorized as an agent to
    submit the speaker proposal form on her or his behalf, and that the
    speaker has been consulted regarding, and is willing to agree to, the
    provisions listed here; upon acceptance, the speaker her- or himself
    will be required to explicitly agree to these provisions via the PAW
    Speaker Agreement.


  • Co-presenters.

    If not included within your speaker submission, co-presenters may only
    participate at PAW after attaining prior permission from PAW, and
    after they have undertaken PAW speaker registration.


  • Client co-presenters.

    If you are an analytics services vendor or consultant co-presenting
    with a client, per PAW policy, the cancellation of your co-presenter
    will result in the cancellation of your overall session.


  • Session length.

    You agree to participate in a speaking slot ranging from 20 to 45
    minutes, at the discretion of PAW, as determined by its conference
    program constraints and requirements.

I have carefully read these speaker requirements and retrictions, and I agree to each provision listed above.
