Speakers Bureau

Post Carbon Institute attempts to accommodate most requests for speakers that support our mission. We appreciate your patience with the organization's complex calendar.

We are pleased to announce that we have the capability to webcast speaker presentations with Q&A directly to your event in real time. If you are interested in hosting a webcast, please contact us for a list of requirements.

Please complete a Request for Speaker to Speak at Event form to invite a Post Carbon speaker to speak at your event or meeting.

Please note, the times requested for the Speaker's participation should be as exact as possible, as the speaker is often juggling multiple events in series. If the event schedule changes after submitting this request, it is the requesting party's responsibility to contact the Speaker's Bureau immediately so Post Carbon Institute may determine if the change can be accommodated.
