Conference details:

Currently, the Summit is being planned as an in-person event; that being written, the health and safety of our speakers and attendees is our top priority and Catalyst is prepared to shift to a virtual format if necessary. Panelists will attend the Summit on October 7, 2021 at the Westin Richmond at no charge; if travel costs are a barrier, please contact Catalyst staff about travel scholarships for those living outside Richmond.

The Summit will highlight nationally-recognized speakers in the morning portion of the event, and will feature breakout sessions on community-based initiatives conducted in Virginia during the afternoon. Panelists will be featured during the Summit's afternoon breakout sessions, where three (3) 50-minute sessions will be occurring concurrently from both 1:00 - 1:50 PM and 2:00 - 2:50 PM. Presenters may apply for:

1) a full 50-minute presentation slot; or,

2) a 15-minute presentation slot on a panel with 2-3 other panelists engaged in related work (panels will be createdand populated by the Summit Planning Committee).

All sessions will include a facilitated Q&A. If you are open to either presentation option, please indicate that in your application. If you are applying with multiple presenters, please indicate that in your presentation description.
