Welcome to the speakerconf site, where you'll find out about this special invite-only Technology conference.

Imagine a conference where all the attendees are conference speakers themselves. Most of them will present during this conference, but all will actively participate in lively, interactive sessions.

You spend the late morning and early afternoon listening to presentations in a single stream event so all the attendees are at each session, ensuring there is no dilution of potential. The topics are beyond bleeding edge, possibly controversial, and most definitely stimulating. The late afternoon is spent in relaxed discussion about the ideas that have been generated and thinking about the future development and dissemination of them. Articles will be borne, books envisaged, and world-changing activities planned.

Over the course of three days (Tuesday through Thursday), you will have heard from around 20 of your peers, absorbed novel ideas, been excited by some interesting innovations, collaborated, and enjoyed the challenge of developing notions with others who are equally engrossed in their profession.

As the setting is in an ideal location (Aruba), you will then have the weekend to spend with your partner in rare relaxation.

There will be two 30 minute presentations, four 15 minute presentations, and three 20 minute moderator led discussions in the conference room per day. Then the discussion will move outside for collaboration sessions.

The speakers will be announced ahead of time; however, the talks themselves will not be announced ahead of time. A speaker can change the talk to whatever they want at any time. This should help facilitate highly relevant talks.
