We’re now accepting talk submissions for Leadership Spark which will be held on Wednesday, September 5, 2018 at Cargill in Wayzata.

Talk submissions will be accepted until midnight on Sunday, August 12, after which time this form will be deactivated.

Proposals will be reviewed, and ten talks will be selected. All persons who submit this form will be notified whether or not they’ve been selected to speak. The final speaker line-up will be posted on this page on Sunday, August 19.

Understand these talks are not meant for you to pitch your company or products. It’s meant to entertain and educate our audience. We are hoping that the leadership focus of the event will discourage these sort of talks.
