Submit a talk

Do you have a great idea or a fascinating story you want to share? Ignite Seattle is a unique chance to share, in just 5 minutes, something important, funny, or wonderful. What are you passionate about? Have a story that changed your perspective somehow? Big or small, heart wrenching or humorous, we want to hear it. And we’ve got the most supportive audience in Seattle.

It’s ok if you haven’t done anything like this before — accepted speakers are invited to coaching sessions and get one-on-one support with professional speakers and coaches Scott Berkun, Beth Jusino, and Andrew Spink. Read more about our coaching program here.

If you’ve never been to one of our events, watch at least one Ignite talk so you get a feel for the format, and DEFINITELY READ our insider advice on getting your talk accepted. We receive ~100 submissions for 10-12 spots, but only a fraction follow this advice.
