If you are an innovator, expert or game changer, then we want you to speak at ACA International’s IGNITE: A Meeting for a New Paradigm in March and the Annual Convention & Expo in July.
IGNITE, a transformation of ACA’s Spring Forum & Expo, is planned for March 24-25 as a full virtual event. The event will feature two new education tracks: Fueling Operation Transformation and Compliance, The New Tomorrow.
For many of us, 2020 caused a paradigm shift in how we think about business. So what are the new products, services and markets, and how do we create new agile operational and compliant business models to manage it all?
That is what IGNITE will explore, and we’re looking for speakers to help us find some answers. If you have ideas about how we can transform our industry beyond what we have already, we are ready to hear what you have to say. Submit a proposal by Jan. 20 to be considered as a selected speaker. Sessions will be 40 minutes and if selected, speakers will receive a discount on their registration.
The Convention & Expo will feature education, networking and business solutions and is planned for July 28-30 at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. Convention speaker proposals are due March 30.

Health Care Collections Trends

Emerging Technology and Artificial Intelligence

About Presenting at Convention
Our planning team is working hard to establish safety protocols to make an in-person event possible for Convention. While we look forward to welcoming members back to face-to-face education and networking, we are also planning for the contingency of needing to hold Convention virtually. The dates for the Convention will remain the same in either format.
As a result of this uncertainty, we are asking our prospective speakers to be flexible and be prepared to speak both in person or virtually, though selected speakers must be able to present in person if we are able to gather.
Presentations will be 50 minutes in duration but will switch to 40 minutes if we shift to virtual. Speakers who are chosen will also receive a discount on their registration fee.
Proposals will be evaluated and selected based on the following criteria: originality, innovativeness, significance and depth of content, timeliness, and professional background of presenters.
Ready to submit a proposal? Use this form to share with us. The deadline is March 30.
