Sessions are evaluated by Beijing InfoComm China Content Team and a group of volunteer subject matter experts with many years of industry experience. Recommendations for inclusion are based on proposal quality, presenter/facilitator expertise, alignment with requested topics, and suitability for the InfoComm audience. Typically, more presentations are submitted than can be accepted. Final acceptance is also dependent on space availability and proposal uniqueness.

Presentations must be tailored for AV professionals, showing evidence of material that will make a significant contribution to the development of attendees’ professional capabilities and knowledge of the field.     

Submissions are evaluated on the following criteria: 

• Complete presentation submission, submitted by the deadline. 
• Session learning level is appropriate for the audience and topic. 
• Identification of three actionable learner outcomes that complete the following the sentence: After participating in this session, attendees will be able to: 
• Session is designed to encourage audience questions, interaction, and participation. 
• Presenters or panelists have in-depth topic knowledge. 
• Content is focused, current, practical, or innovative. 

Most accepted CFP submissions are presented in the Beijing InfoComm China Education Program, which offers over 50 vendor neutral technical and professional training sessions. Beijing InfoComm China education sessions are attended by over 2,000 industry professionals.

There’s no charge to submit, and as long as your presentation is vendor-neutral there’s no charge to present. If you would like to talk specifically about the amazing things your company is doing, contact your Beijing InfoComm China Account Manager to learn about Manufacturers’ Training and Content Sponsorships.

This is a fine line: excluding manufacturer’s training sessions, Beijing InfoComm China sessions cannot promote the products or services of any specific company. They also shouldn’t deride any specific vendor. Discussing multiple vendors that can support a technical need is considered best practice.

A Supplier Speaker refers to a speaker who has a commercial interest in the audience attending InfoComm and who is considered as a potential InfoComm exhibitor. Supplier Speakers will not be considered eligible to present to a formal InfoComm audience except in the following situations: 

• Supplier Speaker is an exhibitor/supplier who has paid to exhibit in the Beijing InfoComm China exhibition.  
• Supplier Speaker is non-exhibitor who has paid for a non-exhibitor sponsorship in the Beijing InfoComm China exhibition.  
• Supplier Speaker is invited by Beijing InfoComm China Content Team due to needed expertise on a particular topic.

The Beijing InfoComm China Call for Presenters is very competitive: less than 50% of submissions are selected.
