Become a Catalyst 26 Conference Speaker

Catalyst 26 Speaker Application

Speakers will be selected based on the unique insights being shared in the session, industry experience and domain expertise of the speaker, and popularity of the topic.

Active contributing members of the Partnership Leaders community are given elevated preference for speaking at Catalyst, but we also welcome professionals from the broader industry.

Catalyst 26 will have two areas to participate as a speaker or host:

• Presentation: A 30-minute formal presentation with a provided screen, delivering unique insights and practical takeaways in a focused, no-Q&A format. 
• Power Circles: Group discussion format for roughly 10 people where the speaker serves as the “host.” No presentation screen, not recorded, and active attendee participation is encouraged. Power Circles are 30 minutes in length. Every Power Circle at Catalyst 2025 in Seattle was filled, making this one of the most popular features of the conference.
