2024 OTM SIG Speaker Agreement
To confirm your participation as a speaker at the 2024 OTM User Conference please read the Speaker Agreement (below) in its entirety and indicate that you acknowledge and agree to abide by the terms and conditions laid out in the agreement. Presentation: Please use the OTM PowerPoint Template for all presentations. Keep in mind all presentations will be reviewed and approved by the OTM Board. The presentation is due June 28th - I agree to present between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm August 5 & 6 and and/or between 8:00 am and 12:00 pm August 7 at the Loews Philadelphia Hotel Presentations will be 50 minutes in length (or unless otherwise noted) - including Q&A. We do ask that presentations by OTM customers be presented by customer employees, not by or with their OTM consultants. However, consultants may assist with creating the presentation and may answer questions from the floor during Q&A. OTM does limit each organization to a maximum of two presentations. Therefore, if the consultant does participate in the delivery of the presentation, this will count towards their 2-presentation conference limit. I understand co-presenter(s) do not receive complimentary registration. The co-presenter(s) are required to register and pay the current registration fee in order to receive a badge and gain access to the session room. I understand that my presentation is not for the purpose of sales, and I may not advertise products or services. I understand that if my presentation is determined to be a “sales presentation” I may be prohibited from presenting at an OTM function for a period of one year. Conference Location: Loews Philadelphia Hotel 1200 Market Street Philadelphia, PA 19107. Each meeting room will be equipped with the following: Podium and Lavalier microphone Large Projection Screen LCD projector Wireless Internet Access If your presentation includes sound, you MUST notify us prior to July 16, 2024 NOTE: Each speaker will be responsible for providing their own laptop for the presentation.
