Speaker nominations are now open for Tandem Global Conference 2026, June 2-3, in Austin.
Join us to address leaders in corporate social responsibility, environmental health and safety, sustainability, government agencies and NGOs – all working to create and maintain healthy ecosystems.
Topics we’re interested in
We’re looking for the new and now. Presentation topics must be current and relevant to the convergence of business and biodiversity, and offer solutions and strategies to make a positive impact for people and planet. We’re especially interested in diverse and inclusive voices as well as interactive presentation elements. Special consideration will be given to the following topics:
- AI and Nature Technology
- Biodiversity and Carbon Credits
- Nature-Related Impact, Dependencies, Risks & Opportunities
- Nature Strategies and Transition Plans
- Climate & Nature Nexus
- Environmental Equity and Social Impact
- KPIs, Metrics, and Reporting
- Developing an Internal Community of Practice for Nature
- Partnering with Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities
- Prioritizing Areas for Nature Action
Presentation formats
Our venue, and minds, are open to a variety of session formats including:
- Traditional session: One to three speakers, each giving their unique perspective, one at a time, on a specific topic. (60 mins total)
- Conversation sessions: Three to four panelists guided in a question and answer conversation by a moderator (mostly visual free). (60 mins total)
- Interactive workshops: A small team leading an audience in exercises to learn about a specific topic or issue. (90-120 mins total)
Guidelines
- We will not be able to accept more than one representative from an organization in a traditional or conversation session. We strive to offer our audience several different views on a topic and will typically group together speakers from different organizations as we build the program.
- Consultants submitting a speaker proposal must propose a corporate partner as a co-presenter to be considered. If your consulting firm is interested in a sponsored session, please contact events@tandemglobal.org.
Our commitment to DEI
We are an bold, driven, inclusive and true organization. As part of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusivity, our goal is to give voice to BIPOC speakers, and include diversity of gender in all sessions.
