NASPP Proposal Submission Website

21st Annual NASPP Conference
September 23-26, 2013 in Washington, DC

The NASPP Annual Conference is the premier event for stock plan professionals, providing unparalleled opportunities for education and networking.  The rapidly shifting regulatory landscape we continue to experience will make the 21st Annual NASPP Conference one of the most important to date. Close to 2,000 professionals attended our 2012 Annual Conference; we expect even more in 2013.

The 21st Annual NASPP Conference will be held September 23-26, in Washington, DC.  We encourage anyone interested in speaking to submit a proposal.  Submitting a proposal does not commit you to speak at the Conference; you will have an opportunity to confirm your participation if your proposal is accepted. Both NASPP members and non-members may submit proposals to speak. We will accept a maximum of three proposals from any one company or firm.

Please refer to our Top Ten Tips For Creating A Successful Proposal for helpful information on how to increase the chance of your proposal being accepted.  We prefer panel presentations that focus on practical guidance and presentations that include company case studies are strongly encouraged.  Case study submissions should include one representative from the studied company.  We may combine similar proposals into a single panel.

SUBMITTING A PROPOSAL

All proposals must be submitted via this website by Friday, March 01, 2013.  We begin evaluating proposals as soon as the submission period closes, so we cannot make any exceptions to this deadline, no matter how dire the circumstances.  We encourage you to plan accordingly.  You will need to provide the following information in your proposal submission:

• Presentation title, description, audience benefit, talking points, instruction level and discipline
• Speaker information for each participant, including contact information, biography, and past speaking experience
• Primary contact for the proposal (speaker or other designated contact)
• New for 2013 — No more than two people from the same company or firm should be listed as a speaker on each proposal that is submitted.
