Become a speaker
Ready to deliver thought-provoking educational content in an intimate environment built for engagement? The call for presentation proposals for 2026 is now open.
Sun Shading Expo’s Knowledge2Go conference program is curated, peer-to-peer networking and relationship building that you won’t find anywhere else.
The format
Knowledge2Go onsite sessions are 25-minute campfire sessions held on the show floor — interactive, casual and discussion-focused rather than lecture-style.
Sessions must be educational, unbiased and non-commercial. Being a sponsor or exhibitor does not guarantee a speaking slot; proposals are reviewed on their merit.
Content categories
- Interior shading and window treatments
- Exterior shading and outdoor living
- Motorization and smart home
- Future trends
- Sustainability and green building
- General business
