Call for Dynamic Speakers

Disrupt the Dialogue. Deliver the Action.

The West Virginia Entrepreneurship Ecosystem is seeking dynamic main stage and workshop presenters for our annual conference, taking place on Tuesday, April 29, 2026.

We’re not looking for high-level overviews or traditional lectures. We are seeking disrupters, doers, and experts who can deliver actionable outcomes and real-world learning opportunities that directly benefit West Virginia’s entrepreneurial community.

If your session will inspire attendees, then immediately equip them with the tools, strategies, and next steps to implement change, we want your proposal.
