A simple repository to serve as a resource for event owners so that they can find speakers who can do training days. This has been identified as a gap in knowledge for event owners and reduces the diversity and growth of the Data training days (or pre-cons) pool. Of course, the famous names will already be approached and will provide excellent training days which will sell tickets and bring folks in to events. Hopefully, the web-page served by this repository will enable event owners to find and approach other speakers as well and then everyone will benefit.
"I would particularly like this to be a resource that amplifies the less well known, newer speakers in our community."
says Rob and so this will require that you the visitor assist, by asking speakers to add themselves and by sharing the web-page with event owners and on social media.
The data entered here will be loaded onto the callfordataspeakers.com website for consumption.
