ICBI32 Request for Panel, Panelist and Presentation Proposals

InBIA’s 32nd International Conference on Business Incubation (ICBI32) will be held April 22 - 25, 2018, in Dallas, Texas, and we are currently accepting proposals from anyone who is interested in presenting, organizing a panel, or being a panelist. For more than 30 years, InBIA's annual conference has been the premiere event for incubation and other entrepreneurial support professionals, and has become globally recognized as a forum for collaborative sharing of innovative strategies for building high-impact entrepreneurial support organizations (ESOs), exploring lessons learned, and tracking trends in entrepreneurial ecosystem development.

If you have expertise in this field and/or lessons learned you would like to share with an audience of peers, this is your chance to become recognized as an industry thought leader. We have some specific topics for which we are seeking panelists, but are also looking for topical suggestions - propose your own panel or presentation for us to consider. Or, if you would like to join an existing panel, let us know your areas of expertise and we will make the connections.

We will be making a special effort to ensure at least one session in each track is geared toward an advanced audience, and that many of the sessions have speakers/panelists from outside the U.S. and/or are applicable to an international audience. If you have advanced expertise, or are based in a non-U.S. country, please consider submitting a proposal.

To submit a proposal, please read the instructions below and complete this online process in its entirety. If you have any questions, please contact Lindsay Schuenke at lschuenke@inbia.org.
