If your organiser has added you as a speaker, the portal gives you a few extra tools on top of everything attendees can do.
Log in with your speaker email
Log in with the email address your organiser has on file for you as a speaker. The portal links your speaker profile to that account, and a different address won't show your speaker tools. See How Attendees and Exhibitors Log In to an Event with an Email Passcode if this is your first time.
What you get as a speaker
#image# The avatar menu open at the top right, showing the My Speaker Profile item
- Your speaker profile. Open the avatar menu at the top right and click My Speaker Profile. Your event may use another word than "Speaker" here, because the name follows the organiser's menu names. This is the page attendees see when they open you in Speakers.
- Your sessions in My Agenda. Sessions you're linked to as a speaker are added to My Agenda for you. You don't need to add them yourself, and you can't remove them.
- Edit Session Details. On each of your sessions, a pencil icon lets you update the session's videos and files, and sometimes its title and description. Your organiser decides whether speakers can do this.
- A speaker QR code. Next to your personal QR code, the MY QR panel has a Speaker tab with a code that lets others connect with your speaker profile.
Everything else in the portal works for you the same way it does for attendees: Sessions, Meeting, Messages and the rest.
Find your sessions

- Open My Agenda from the sidebar.
- Move to the day of your session with the arrows, or click Today.
- Click your session, then click View More to open the full session page.
Your sessions also appear in Sessions with your name on the session card. Because the organiser assigned them to you, the Add to Agenda button doesn't show on them.
Set up before the event
Work through these in order:
- Complete your speaker profile: photo, bio, position and social links. See How Speakers Can Edit Their Profile and Upload Files.
- Open each of your sessions and add videos or slides, if your organiser allows it. See How Speakers Can Edit Their Session Details, Videos and Files.
- Look at your session page the way attendees will, and read how questions and polls reach you. See How Speakers Can Prepare for Their Session: What Attendees See.
Get your speaker QR code

- Open the MY QR panel. How Attendees Can Find and Download Their Personal QR Code shows where it is.
- Click the Speaker tab. The title reads Speaker QR Code.
- Click the download icon to save it as an image.
Your Attendee tab still holds your personal QR code. Use that one for session check-ins.
Common questions
I'm also an exhibitor or sponsor. Do I have to switch accounts?
No. Each profile you're linked to shows up side by side, for example My Speaker Profile and My Exhibitor Profile in the avatar menu. See How Exhibitors, Sponsors and Speakers Can Manage More Than One Profile.
I can't see My Speaker Profile in the avatar menu.
Your account isn't linked to a speaker profile yet, or you logged in with a different email. Ask your organiser to check which email your speaker profile uses.
