Speaker and Presenter Proposals
This year we are welcoming proposals focused on the Intermountain Sustainability Summit's (ISS) theme Regeneration. Whether you are working at the community, educational, municipal, company or policy level, come share how you are fostering a healthy, sustainable world at the ISS on March 20 -21, 2025.
The ISS attracts thought leaders from business, government, non-profit and academic sectors, across Utah and the Intermountain West. Grounded in growing sustainability successes, yet mindful of the challenges ahead, we seek submissions highlighting practical solutions and innovations. We welcome topics from all areas of sustainability, including the human aspects of working together with dignity and respect. Presenters make the ISS the go-to event to learn, share and regenerate each year. Be a part of the ISS!
The call for speaker and artist proposals’ is open through Friday, October 25, 2024. See the proposal guide for complete details.
"Regeneration means putting life at the center of every action and decision."

Participant Engagement
The ISS is a dynamic and interactive event. We encourage proposals that include innovative formats, which engage attendees on multiple levels, including interactions with fellow participants, hands-on activities and shared experiences, to name a few.
We encourage presenters to engage participants, beyond Q & A, with the addition of artistic or outside-of-the-box elements.
