Speaker Management Made Easier for Everyone
Event Tech Stack gives speakers one place to manage their profiles, view their assigned sessions, and upload presentations and required documents. Your team can set submission requirements, review materials, and track what’s complete and what’s still missing.
Speaker Management Shouldn't Live in Your Inbox
Most teams collect bios, headshots, and decks through email threads, shared drives, and spreadsheets, then spend the weeks before the event figuring out what's still missing.
Content Arrives From Everywhere
Bios come in by email, headshots through a shared drive, and decks through a file-transfer link. Before you can review anything, you have to find it and match it to the right session.
Nobody Knows Which Version Is Final
A speaker sends an updated deck the night before. Their co-presenter sends a different one. Your production team needs the final file, and figuring out which one that is shouldn't take a group email.
Speakers Get Unclear Instructions
Templates, deadlines, and submission requirements end up spread across multiple emails. Speakers miss what they need, and panelists end up sending the same presentation three times.
Follow-Up Takes Over Your Week
With dozens or hundreds of speakers, tracking who has submitted what becomes a spreadsheet you update by hand. Missing items surface late, when there's the least time to fix them.
From Speaker Invitation to Final Presentation
Speakers get a clear view of what's expected of them. Your team controls requirements, reviews, and approvals, with every submission tied to the right session.
Speaker Profiles
Collect profiles once, tailor them for each event
Choose which fields speakers complete, from credentials, titles, and pronouns to expertise, accessibility needs, and custom questions.
Your team can edit bios and headshots for a specific event without changing the speaker's original profile.

Speaker & Session Requirements
Set requirements by session type
Define the materials speakers need to submit for keynotes, panels, workshops, CE sessions, and other session types. Add or remove requirements for individual sessions as needed.
For example, request one shared presentation for a panel, along with a bio and headshot from each panelist.

Speaker Documents
Manage more than bios and presentations
Collect speaker agreements, recording and photography releases, conflict-of-interest disclosures, copyright confirmations, travel forms, and code-of-conduct acknowledgements, all managed alongside the rest of your speaker content.
Presentations & Large Files
Keep every file connected to the right session
Speakers upload presentations, videos, and handouts, or share links to online decks. Every file stays tied to its session, speaker, and requirement, so your production team always knows where to look.
Review & Approval Workflows
Move content from first draft to final approval
Turn on approval workflows when you need them. Review submissions for branding, accessibility, required disclosures, accreditation requirements, and technical readiness, then approve them or send them back with revision notes.
Deadlines & Reminders
Keep speakers on track without chasing them by email
Set due dates for profiles, presentations, and documents. Automated reminders go out for missing or overdue items, along with invitations, submission confirmations, approval notices, and final event instructions.
Connected Speaker Content
Collect speaker content once and use it across your event
Approved bios, headshots, and session details carry through to your event website, agenda, speaker directory, Event Hub, mobile app, and communications, so nobody re-enters the same information in five different places.
Know who's ready and who needs a nudge
See progress across every speaker, session, and requirement without digging through email threads, spreadsheets, or shared folders, and step in when someone needs help.
Invitation Tracking
See which speakers have been added, invited, accepted, or declined so you can fill gaps in your program early.
Submission Status
Track every item as not started, in progress, submitted, under review, needs revision, resubmitted, approved, or overdue.
Completion & Gaps
View completion by speaker, session, or session type, and spot missing headshots, outstanding documents, and overdue presentations before they affect the event.
Administrative Assistance
When a speaker is stuck or short on time, planners can update their information or submit materials on their behalf.
Speaker management for events of every size
Whether you're coordinating a handful of executive presenters or hundreds of speakers across multiple tracks, the same workflow scales with your program.
Multi-Track Conferences
Keep hundreds of speakers and sessions on schedule
Assign speakers across tracks, apply consistent requirements by session type, and see completion by session so your team knows which parts of the program need attention first.
Continuing Education Programs
Collect pre-recorded sessions for on-demand learning
Gather pre-recorded videos, slides, and supporting materials from speakers in one place, then publish them as on-demand sessions learners can access after the event.
Corporate & Executive Events
Give high-profile presenters a simple, polished experience
Executives get one clear portal for their profile, deck, and deadlines. When they need help, planners can submit materials on their behalf and refine bios and headshots to match event standards.
A speaker experience that respects their time
Speakers are busy, and most are balancing their day jobs alongside your event. The Speaker Portal shows them what to do, when it's due, and where everything stands.
Assigned Sessions & Co-Presenters
Speakers see only the sessions they're assigned to, including their role, requirements, deadlines, and co-presenters.
Templates & Resources
Speakers download branded templates, slide guidelines, accessibility standards, technical specifications, and venue instructions before they start building their content.
Speaker Registration
Speakers register for the attendee levels you specify directly through their portal, giving them access to eligible sessions, activities, and attendee resources.
Status & Revisions
Speakers track the status of every submission and respond to revision requests where they uploaded the original file.
Post-Event Access
After the event, speakers can view approved recordings, final files, attendance, and chat, Q&A, and poll history, based on your permissions.

Executing events across a multi-day program in Cannes gets complicated. Each event or experience requires custom reg flows to manage unique audiences, schedules, and execution. Bringing all of our registration onto a single platform with ETS made all the difference. Our partners and guests were able to register once, using a single credential to access multiple events. Our team had access to comprehensive tracking and analytics across the entire program.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about managing speakers in Event Tech Stack.
Can speakers see sessions they aren't assigned to?
Speakers only see the sessions they're assigned to in their speaker portal. Within each session, they can view their role, requirements, deadlines, files, approval statuses, and any co-presenters.

Yes, you can create standard requirements for keynotes, panels, workshops, CE sessions, and other formats, then customize them for individual sessions or speakers.
Can one presentation cover a session with multiple speakers?

What can speakers submit through the portal?
Speakers can submit PowerPoint or Keynote presentations, PDFs, videos, handouts, worksheets, reference lists, poll and quiz questions, production notes, required documents, and links to online presentations.
Do I need separate storage for large presentation and video files?
