The American Distilling Institute has now opened the Request for Proposals for educational sessions for the ADI conference in Saint Louis, MO, September 14-16, 2021.
Call for Proposal will close on November 15,2021. Accepted presenters and rejected sessions will be notified by November 24, 2021. Some sessions might be pending potential acceptance and we will reach out accordingly by December 5. WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT SUBMISSIONS SENT VIA THIS LINK.
Advanced scientific, operational, safety and legal presentations are of heightened interest. Please complete all questions to the best of your ability. Comments are to be entered in the Comments section, NOT the session description. Length of sessions can be 45 min (our regular sessions), 30 minutes (Rapid Fire/Expo stage sessions), and over 90 minutes (Deep-Dive sessions and workshops).
Educational sessions are considered solely on the basis of their value to the community. Any session submitted by a supplier must include active participation of a client to be considered (client can be named at a later date).
We do not compensate for speaking. Speakers will receive a complimentary speaker badge but will be responsible for lodging and transportation. Submission and acceptance imply that you agree to be recorded and your name/likeness maybe used in conference promotions, including pre and post conference communications.
All tasting sessions are subject to approval under local liquor boards and will be discussed separately.
You will have the opportunity to submit revisions to the description of the session and will have full access to your bio and contact information post acceptance.
Please reach out to speakers@distilling.com with questions. We look forward to reading your proposal!
