Eligibility and requirements

All submissions must be in English and include the following:

  • Speaker name(s): For business partner and distributor submissions, your end user must be added in your submission as the primary speaker at the event.
  • Presentation title (80 characters or fewer, including spaces)
  • Company name
  • Complete address, phone, and email information
  • Abstract (600 characters or fewer, including spaces): Please make sure that any content in the main abstract field is ready to be published. If your presentation is accepted, this will be your description in the agenda. If you have additional information you’d like to share about your abstract, please include it in the expanded abstract field.

Keyword set (list only 3–5 keywords): Keywords are used to organize presentations into appropriate sessions, so choose words that clearly describe the main ideas of your work.

The information you enter will be published on the website and agenda. Eliminate bullet points and numbering. Avoid using words in all capital letters. All presentations must be noncommercial. At no time is it permissible for speakers to use their time slot to advertise or promote a product, service, or company.

You will need an Esri Events account to access the submission form and submit your abstract. This new account is not tied to any other Esri or ArcGIS Online account. If you do not have one, you can create a free Esri Events account during the submission process.

Frequently asked questions

The allotted time for your presentation is 15 minutes, including a period for questions.

Our committee will evaluate each abstract and make selections based on topic, content, and time availability. All authors will be notified after the selection process.

Speakers will be provided with presentation information as well as their time slot and instructions. During the event, Esri staff will help facilitate the session with you and the other presenters.

Submissions are open to members of the Esri user community.

No, product promotion is prohibited. While we understand you have products and services to sell, we would like these sessions to be inspiring, informative, and educational rather than a series of exhibit booth sales demonstrations.
