Set Yourself Up for Success

How can you ensure that your application stands out from the rest? Here are 10 tips to help you make the cut in 2026.

  • Stand Out with a Killer Title: Craft a session title under 10 words that’s punchy, keyword-rich, and grabs attention instantly. Think bold, exciting, and relevant!
  • Keep It Vendor-Neutral: Focus on actionable insights, real-world case studies, and unbiased advice that resonates with channel partners. Avoid sales pitches at all costs.
  • Tailor Your Talk: Customize your session for MSPs, Technology Advisors, or the broader channel audience. Speak directly to their challenges and opportunities.
  • Embrace the Theme: Align your proposal with this year's theme, Channel Velocity: Acceleration Through Intelligence. Show how your insights drive speed, intelligence, and measurable results.
  • Focus on Actionable Takeaways: Ensure your session delivers clear, practical advice that attendees can implement immediately to grow their businesses.
  • Leverage Hot Topics: Build your proposal around trending topics like AI, cybersecurity, cloud, sustainability, or recurring revenue strategies to align with the event’s focus areas.
  • Be Data-Driven: Include industry research, partner success stories, or customer insights to make your session credible and compelling.
  • Showcase Your Expertise: Write a concise, engaging bio that highlights your thought leadership and experience in the channel.
  • Make It Engaging: Design your session to be interactive, thought-provoking, and inspiring. Think workshops, peer discussions, or dynamic presentations.
  • Submit Early! Don’t wait until the last minute—get your proposal in before October 3rd to ensure it’s polished and complete.
