PROPOSAL EVALUATION

Submissions are evaluated by the Content Committee, consisting of FS-ISAC staff and member subject matter experts.

Tips for Selection:

• Selection and Timeliness of the Topic 
  Is this topic important to Summit attendees? Are member firms struggling to get their arms around it? The Committee assesses both the technical merits and potential interest of the presentation proposal.
• Educational Value of the Topic 
  Attendees appreciate hearing real implementation stories - both domestically and internationally. Members like to leave the Summit equipped with alternative approaches and “lessons learned”, something to take back to the office.
• Develop a Unique Approach to the Topic 
  Recognize that your professional peers may be submitting their proposals on a similar topic. Do you have a fresh approach to drive interest this year?
• Showcase the Scope of Expertise of any Co-Speakers, Moderators or Panelists 
  You should be very well-versed on the topic and equally skilled at presenting. The Committee will be looking for evidence that the speaker is an expert. Are you considered an expert on this topic by your professional peers?

We will discard: 

• Incomplete or poorly written/underdeveloped submissions 
• Submissions from/including Solution Providers
