Adding a Speaker

Add a Speaker to your Event so that you can easily add your Speaker information to your Event Website.

The speakers feature of iVvy allows you to easily display the speakers image, business and biography profile on your event website to give them some exposure.

An individual speakers page will be created with a list of the speakers added to the event, when the Speakers functionality is enabled.

Speakers can also be linked to the session/function that they will be speaking in, on the program page as well. To see more information on this view the Adding Speakers To A Session article.

To enable the Speakers setting in your event, navigate to Event Setup > Event Settings > Configure > Include Speakers- Yes
