Thank you for your interest in presenting at APMP's Leadership Conference!

Submit your presentation idea for APMP's 2nd Annual Leadership Conference using the form below. This year's forward-thinking conference will bring together leaders and innovators in the bid and proposal industry to explore groundbreaking strategies, share best practices, and inspire growth. With a focus on empowering professionals at all levels, the event will offer sessions on leadership development, team dynamics, emerging trends, and success stories that are reshaping the field. We invite educational breakout sessions focused on advancing leadership skills, exploring cutting-edge strategies, and sharing practical insights tailored to the unique challenges of bid and proposal management. Sessions should offer actionable content, showcase proven methods, and stay vendor-neutral to ensure a balanced, industry-wide perspective. Presentations should not promote specific companies or products.

Submissions will be evaluated anonymously, with a strong emphasis on session descriptions and key takeaways.

The deadline for your submission is December 6, 2025 at 5 PM EST.

All applicants will be informed of the status of their submission - whether accepted or not - by December 20. The final agenda is slated for release by the end of December 2024. Once available, it will be published on the event page and distributed via email.

As a sales coach, the executive summary is vital for capturing and proposing management activities. This is an excellent addition to our members' professional standing, and I look forward to many more micro certifications.

I never want to be complacent in my career, so it has been beneficial to have this group of peers who are going through similar trials and tribulations in the proposal world on a day-to-day basis.

With this micro-certification and digital badge, I signal to my bid team and stakeholders that I am familiar with this topic. They can use me as their contact and "sparring partner," independent of RFPs.

The Executive Summaries Micro-Certification exam was easy to follow and clear in what was required. I found the learning materials to be very informative, and they will be a great tool to use while in the exam and for future executive summary tasks.
