Apply to Speak in Philadelphia!

Welcome to the Call for Speakers for the highly anticipated NCEO Forum! As one of the leading events in employee ownership and cooperative business models, the NCEO Forum provides a platform for industry experts, thought leaders, and practitioners to share insights, experiences, and innovations shaping the landscape of employee ownership. Following a complete sellout of registration in 2024, we are excited to soar to new heights of employee-owner success in Philadelphia!

For the 2025 Forum, the NCEO is excited to announce that the event has undergone shifts in its format, embracing new approaches to deliver an even more engaging and enriching experience for our attendees. This evolution in format presents a unique opportunity for speakers to explore fresh perspectives, present cutting-edge research, and engage in dynamic discussions that drive the conversation forward.

We require prospective speakers to carefully review the speaker guidelines on this page, which outline critical criteria for topic selection, presentation style, and overall contribution to the objectives of the NCEO Forum.

The deadline to apply to speak is May 2nd - submit your proposal today!
