Official Speaker Submission Form for PodStock™ 2022

With less than 20 speaking spots available, the selection process has become competitive; however, because the PodStock™ features content from a wide array of topics and addresses attendees of many different skill levels, if you submit your unique and excellent idea, you'll have a great shot at being selected to speak at the event.

PodStock™ is all about the evolving landscape of audio and podcasting.
So bring your best ideas as it relates to new tools, podcasting techniques, technology, and industry developments!

Please note that the current plan is for all presentations to originate from the stage in Trenton, NJ.
All speakers, moderators, and panelists will participate in person; there will not be any remote presenters for this event.

We will close this form on June 1, 2022, and our goal is to inform all submitters of the decision to accept or decline their submission by the June 1, 2022.

Here are some things to consider before continuing.

How long is each session?
The standard sessions length is 30 minutes, including Q&A time, if you plan on taking questions from the audience after your panel or presentation. Each stage is equipped with a countdown clock, or a room monitor to give you time queues, for you to monitor the time remaining.

What A/V tools will be available to speakers?
Internet access will be available but cannot always be counted on. You must cache any demos that require an Internet connection as a backup. Standard A/V for each session room will consist of an LCD projector, screen, microphone, and a podium or comparable table. Appropriate A/V (e.g., multiple microphones) will be provided to support multi-speaker sessions.

What is the timeline for submissions, and being informed about selections?
We will close this form at the end of April 2022, and our goal is to inform all submitters of the decision to accept or decline their submission by mid-May.

What if I get selected but I bought a ticket?
All selected speakers for PodStock™ will receive an All-Access Speaker Pass to the event. If you've already paid for a ticket, we will give you a full refund.

What compensation and expenses are covered for speakers?
All selected participants for PodStock™ will receive an All-Access Speaker Pass to the event. PodStock™ also provides all speakers access to a Ready Room with drinks throughout the day of the event.
