In this rapidly-changing market, education is critical. At AEC Next and SPAR 3D, we carefully develop conference topics in cooperation with an Advisory Board of esteemed professionals and thoroughly vet prospective speakers. Our goal is to provide outstanding, actionable information on the critical issues industrial users face integrating or operating technology and to provide a glimpse at what's coming next.

"The unprecedented situation that we're living through has caused the entire world to change and the AEC Next and SPAR 3D events are changing with it," said Event Director Christine Salmon. "Our focus has always been to highlight what it means for professionals to adopt and utilize new tools in order to create value. Understanding what it looks like to actually do so in this ever-evolving world is more important than ever, which is why the content at our events will explore how professionals can use new tools to make an impact in the present. Doing so will effectively set them up for success in a future that is taking shape before our eyes."
Recommended presentation abstracts should focus on business case studies (ex. ROI analysis, material cost savings), which relate to the application of built world and 3D technologies in support of relevant commercial, industrial and government projects. Applicants are strongly encouraged to include their clients as co-presenters. Preference will be given to asset owner presenters (the end users of the technology). Vendors are encouraged to nominate asset owner customers to present or co-present. Product presentations will not be selected for the main program but are available to exhibiting companies in the Product Previews section of pre-conference programming.

Because the events are co-located, each application will be considered for both conferences. Some may qualify for dual placement, meaning the session will be accessible to both AEC Next and SPAR 3D attendees.

Interested applicants can submit an application here. If you have questions about the speaker selection process, or need guidance regarding your proposed abstract submission, please contact either of our 2021 conference chairs below. You can also view our 2020 Virtual Content to stay up to date.
